In a sea of great streaming services, Paramount Plus is our go-to for CBS content, classic TV shows, and live NFL games. It's also available bundled with Showtime for one low cost, adding a bunch of extra movies and original series to its library. And right now, you can snag big savings with this Black Friday Paramount Plus deal.

Now through December 3, new and eligible returning subscribers can get their first three months of Paramount Plus Essential for only $2/month, or Paramount Plus with Showtime for only $4/month. That comes out to a total of $6 for three months of the ad-supported Essential plan, or $12 for three months of the ad-free Showtime plan — which is a 67% discount.

With this deal, you basically end up getting three months of either Paramount Plus plan for the cost of one. After your three-month promotional period, the service will automatically renew at full-price, but you can cancel anytime.

Paramount Plus discounts aren't common. It usually takes a major deal holiday, like Black Friday, or the occasional anniversary to make something like this promo crop up. For that reason, this sale is a can't-miss opportunity, especially if you've been looking to subscribe.

This isn't the only service dropping its prices for the holidays — check out our guide to the best Black Friday streaming deals to find them all. We're also rounding up all of the biggest discounts across other product categories in our full Black Friday deals guide.

Is Paramount Plus worth it?

With so many streaming services to choose from, it's not easy to commit to paying yet another monthly subscription. This Paramount Plus Black Friday deal makes subscribing a no-brainer if you're even slightly interested in trying the service, but we think Paramount Plus is a worthy streaming option at full price.

Paramount Plus stands out because it's home to many ViacomCBS programs you can't find elsewhere, including shows from CBS, BET, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon, MTV, and more. Beloved series like "Survivor," "NCIS," "CSI," and "RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars" all live there. You can also stream live NFL games that air in your local CBS market. Paramount Plus has a healthy assortment of original shows as well, including popular "Yellowstone" spinoffs and hits like "Star Trek: Discovery." The service also lets you stream new Paramount movies after they play in theaters. 

Even without this deal, Paramount Plus is relatively affordable at a regular price of $6 a month for the ad-supported Essential plan, or $12 a month for the ad-free Paramount Plus with Showtime plan. In addition to Showtime, the top-tier also adds live streaming access to your local CBS station.
