Ready for another streaming service? Well, here it is: ViacomCBS’s Paramount Plus has officially launched today. The streaming service is an evolution of the now-defunct CBS All Access. And truthfully, the rename is a step in the right direction from a branding perspective. Naming a service after a movie studio with a long history of beloved content gives it a certain prestige a streaming service named after a TV channel lacks.
But we know what most people care about is the content—and Paramount Plus is launching with a ton of it—both original and back-catalog. Here’s some of what you can expect:

Paramount Plus will also include popular kids’ shows like SpongeBob SquarePants, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and iCarly; reality TV shows like Survivor and The Amazing Race; and comedy classics like Chappelle’s Show, Reno 911!, and The Daily Show with Trevor Noah.
Paramount Plus launches today and costs $10 per month or $6 a month for an ad-based version. Alternately, you can subscribe to an “ad-supported tier” for $5 per month—but that option won’t be available until this summer. And if you’re a CBS All Access subscriber, know that there is nothing you need to do. CBS All Access subscribers will be automatically switched to Paramount Plus.
