We may not have seen aDisneyPlus deal yet, but this Black Friday Paramount Plus saving makes up for it.
You can currently snatch up the streaming service’s ‘Essential’ tierorthe bundle with Showtime forjust $2.99 per monthfor the first two months. Considering how Paramount Plus Essential is normally $7.99 and the Paramount Plus/Showtime bundle weighs in at $12.99p/m, that translates to $5 or $10 off respectively. A 76% saving isn’t bad by any stretch, but it’s especially good over Black Friday when everyone’s jostling for attention. You don’t need any special codes to access this reduction either, from what I can tell - when I went through the sign-up process for this offer myself, checkout automatically applied the saving.
Annoyingly, the competition hasn’t come out of hiding yet - I’m still waiting forBlack Friday Disney Plus dealsto emerge. With this offer stealing all that good press, hopefully the House of Mouse will come out swinging with a similar discount.

Should you buy Paramount Plus?
OK, this is the million-dollar question. Should you actually bother with Paramount Plus? As with all streaming services, it comes down to what’s in the library. The studio’s biggest names feature Star Trek (including each prior series and every new release, like Strange New Worlds and Below Decks), the new season of Frasier, and movies likeTransformers OneorA Quiet Place: Day One. If any of those appeal to you, I’d say it’s worth at least dipping your toe into the water with this two-month price cut.
Which deal you grab will depend entirely on whether you’re a sports fan, because the Showtime bundle includes NFL on CBS, UEFA Champions League, and more. To be honest, seeing as it’s been reduced to the same level as Paramount Plus Essential despite usually being more expensive, I’d just get the combo deal and cancel when your two months are up anyway. So long as you remember to cancel before it auto-renews by the end of January at the normal, higher price, you aren’t losing anything.
