As the streaming wars continues to rage on the newest member to enter the arena is Paramount+. Replacing CBS All Access on March 4th, this streaming service combines all channels under the Viacom company umbrella like CBS, MTV, BET, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon and Paramount Network, plus its Paramount Pictures movie studio.
Subscription will cost $5.99 a month with ads, $10 a month, ad-free, or $99 a year for a limited time offer. Launching Thursday Paramount Plus will have a library of more than 30,000 episodes and 2,500 movies, plus 36 original series debuts this year. Among those originals will be a revival of Frasier, the 1990s sitcom; a CG-animation update of Nickelodeon’s Rugrats to tap millennial nostalgia.

A new studio dedicated to the Avatar: The Last Airbender means that the fantastic universe will expand into new series, short-form content, spin offs, and theatrical films.
If you’re already a CBS All Access subscriber, your membership transfers over to Paramount Plus, even if you’re currently paying for its $6-a-month tier. On Thursday, the CBS All Access app is set to automatically update and transform into the Paramount Plus app.
Whether you are currently on CBS All Access’ $10-a-month ad-free tier or on its $6-a-month tier with ads, you will be able to access and stream everything on Paramount Plus — the only difference is whether you continue to see ads or not.
