This new Paramount+ deal lets you stream sports, movies and shows for less.

Save 50% at Paramount+

Through Friday, September 6 , the streaming site is letting newcomers get an annual membership for as low as $29.99. That applies to the Paramount+ Essential tier, which typically costs $59.99 a year and lets you live-stream NFL games on top of thousands of shows and movies. If you've heard the buzz about shows like The Curse or Yellowjackets , you can get Paramount+ with Showtime for $59.99—that's $60 off its usual annual price of $119.99. Not only do you get access to NFL games and CBS shows, but also Showtime original titles with no ads (except for live TV and select shows) and the ability to download content to your mobile device.

What is Paramount+?

Paramount+ is a subscription streaming service from Paramount that replaced CBS All Access as of March 4, 2021 . Paramount+ offers TV shows, movies and sports content from various sources including the CBS network, BET, Nickelodeon, MTV, Comedy Central, Paramount Pictures and a few others. That means you can binge-watch whole seasons of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars and the new reboot of Frasier during the day, then turn any evening into a fun movie night with hits like Top Gun: Maverick and the recent musical remake of Mean Girls . Paramount+ is also the home of live sports from the NFL, NCAA basketball and the UEFA Champions League.

What is Showtime?

Showtime is better known as an add-on to cable services, but can also be watched as its own streaming service. A subscription to Showtime allows you to watch all of the channel's original shows, sporting events and movie library ad-free. The service also allows subscribers to the streaming service to download the majority of its content for offline viewing on mobile devices (up to 15 programs at a time per device). There are plenty of great titles to watch on Showtime, from the spooky drama of Yellowjackets to the multiverse madness of Everything Everywhere All at Once .

Both services can be accessed on Android devices, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV and Fire TV Sticks, PlayStation 4 and 5, iPhones and iPads, Xbox One and Series X|S, Roku and Samsung Smart TVs.

How much is Paramount+?

Paramount+ has two tiers: Paramount+ Essential and Paramount+ with Showtime, both offering annual or monthly fees. The former costs $7.99 a month while the latter runs you $12.99 a month. Both tiers come with a one-week free trial. The Paramount+/Showtime bundle is the better deal, with the monthly fee being 32% cheaper than having subscriptions to Paramount+ and Showtime separately. The current deal brings the annual fees of both the solo Paramount tier and the Paramount+/Showtime bundle down 50%. If there was ever a time to see how Paramount plays the streaming game, it's right before the kickoff to another football season.
