Paramount+ Is Now Free for Charter’s Spectrum Select TV Select Customers


Charter is making Paramount+ Essential free to all Spectrum TV Select and Mi Plan Latino packages nationwide.

Charter’s Spectrum video customers now have access to more than 40,000 TV episodes and movies, including original series like “Tulsa King,” “Special Ops: Lioness,” “SpongeBob SquarePants” and “Big Brother,” plus live sports on CBS. “This partnership not only enhances the viewing experience with access to top-rated original content and live sports, but it also creates new distribution opportunities for Paramount and is a significant step towards building a healthier video ecosystem that benefits both our customers and the industry as a whole,” Tom Montemagno, executive VP of programming acquisition for Charter, said in a statement. The streaming components of the Paramount-Charter deal are similar to the agreement the cable operator struck last year with Disney, under which select Spectrum TV customers are able to access Disney+ and ESPN+ for no additional charge.
