As Black Friday approaches, a slew of major TV and movie streaming platforms are rolling out discounted subscription offers. Whether you’re a new user or a returning one eager to stock up on entertainment for the cozy holiday season, services like Paramount Plus, Hulu, Peacock, and Max have lowered their monthly rates significantly.
These promotions are tempting, making it easier than ever to dive into multiple libraries. If you’re grappling with making a choice, let me break it down: Paramount Plus has a treasure trove for Star Trek fans with its full series collection, including the latest “Lower Decks” season. If you’re leaning more toward classics, you’ll find gems like “Invasion of the Body Snatchers” and every “Mission: Impossible” movie there as well. Meanwhile, Max stands out with its impressive lineup of Cartoon Network and Adult Swim shows. It’s also the go-to hub for Criterion classics and films from A24, plus exclusive titles like “The Penguin” and “Dune: Prophecy.”
If science fiction catches your fancy, Hulu could be your best bet. It boasts a selection that includes personal favorites like “Prey,” “The Creator,” and the iconic “Akira,” alongside the complete Alien saga. For a dose of humor, don’t miss out on “What We Do in the Shadows.” Peacock, on the other hand, covers you for comedy classics like “Parks & Recreation” and “The Office,” and might pique your interest with titles like “Twisters” and the first two seasons of “Girls5Eva”. Just a heads up—the third season of this must-watch comedy is now available only on Netflix.
If you’re ready for a fresh binge-watch lineup, I’ve summed up the details of these ongoing discounted plans along with all the essential fine print below.
