YouTube Adds Third Party Streaming Services With 'Primetime Channels'

YouTube has announced a new 'Primetime Channels' feature allowing users to sign up for and watch third party streaming services.

With Primetime Channels, you will be able to sign up, browse and watch your favorite TV shows, movies and sports from streaming services such as SHOWTIME, STARZ, Paramount+, AMC+, ViX+ and more, all directly on YouTube!

Starting today, an early version of Primetime Channels is rolling out in the United States. To sign up, users can navigate to the Movies & TV hub where there will be over 30 channels available. Additional services, including NBA League Pass are coming soon.




Once you sign up, content from your Primetime Channels will be reflected into the YouTube experience you know and love. For fans who like to go deeper into what they’re watching, Primetime Channels homepages will feature shows and movies with curated trailers, behind-the-scenes footage and cast interviews. When searching for content from your purchases, you'll be able to quickly identify and access them in the search results, alongside videos from your favorite creators. And YouTube recommendations will also include programs from Primetime Channels, delivering a personalized selection of content across YouTube that appeals to all your interests.

"We are excited to expand our partnership with YouTube to offer customers of Paramount+ another way to stream the content they love," said Jeff Shultz, Chief Strategy Officer and Business Development Officer, Paramount Streaming. "This new feature gives us the opportunity to expand our presence on YouTube, broadening our reach and giving consumers even more choice when it comes to streaming the best in entertainment."
