In case you missed it, Paramount Plus is raising prices by $1 a month starting on January 15th, 2026, taking the ad-supported Essential plan from $7.99 to $8.99 and the ad-free Premium plan from $12.99 to $13.99. Thankfully, Paramount’s Black Friday promo has arrived just in time to (somewhat) soften the blow. Now through December 2nd, both new and returning subscribers can sign up for a two-month subscription for just $2.99 a month, dropping the price of the Essential plan by $5 and the Premium plan by a whopping $10.
No matter which plan you choose, Paramount Plus gives you access to over 40,000 TV episodes and movies, including the latest season of Landman, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, The Naked Gun, Sonic the Hedgehog 3, South Park, Fight or Flight, and The Daily Show. You’ll get access to 20 curated live channels and a few Showtime titles — including the first two seasons of Yellowjackets and all of Dexter — with support for three simultaneous streams and up to six profiles (including kid-friendly ones). Some live sports are also available, including all UEFA Champions League games and select NFL games.
The Premium plan takes things a step further, granting access to the full Showtime library — including shows like The Chi, Dexter: Resurrection, and every season of Yellowjackets — as well as films like The Substance, Talk To Me, Infinite, and Past Lives. It also adds support for streaming select titles in 4K UHD with Dolby Vision or HDR10 Plus, 24/7 live CBS news via your local station, and the ability to download shows and movies for offline viewing.
