Add more to your CBS streaming lineup

Paramount+ (from Paramount Streaming/ViacomCBS Streaming) is a paid streaming service that brings movies, TV series and live events together on a single platform. It aggregates programming from the CBS Entertainment Group alongside many properties owned by Paramount Global, delivering an on-demand library across genres similar to other major streamers.

The service bundles content from a range of networks and labels, giving you one place to watch shows and films from across the company’s brands:

• VH1
• MTV
• BET
• Comedy Central
• Nickelodeon
• CBS
• SHOWTIME

You’ll find both classic series and newer titles spanning family, drama, reality, comedy and more.

Popular series, originals and movies

Paramount+ carries full episodes of many well-known series and invests in subscriber-only originals:

• Big Brother
• SpongeBob SquarePants
• NCIS
• Survivor

Examples of exclusive originals include:

• Special Ops: Lioness
• 1923

For movie fans, the service regularly features films from Paramount Pictures, MGM and other studio partners so there’s often a wide selection of recent hits and catalogue favorites.

Plans, trials and customization

The platform offers several ways to subscribe and try the service before committing:

• Customizable bundles to tailor your lineup
• Multiple subscription tiers
• A free trial period for new customers

These options let you pick the combination of features, price and add-ons that best fit how you watch.

Why it’s worth considering

In a crowded streaming market, Paramount+ stands out for its deep archive of classic TV and a mix of live sports, originals and theatrical films. While it has some limits—ads on live feeds and regional restrictions, for instance—the breadth of channels and exclusive programming make it a strong option for subscribers seeking a single hub for CBS-related content and more.
