Max, Hulu, and Paramount Plus are all heavily discounted for Black Friday


If you’re looking to catch up on recent shows and movies — including Shogun, The Penguin, and Dune: Part Two — the upcoming holiday weekend is the perfect time to do so. Thankfully, multiple streaming services are slashing subscription prices ahead of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, including Max, Hulu, and others. Right now, for example, you can sign up for a year of Hulu for less than $12. What’s more, you don’t have to be a new subscriber to take advantage of the ongoing promo, which is a rarity in the world of streaming.

Hulu is just one of many platforms currently offering a holiday discount, though. We’ve rounded up a selection of other streaming deals below, many of which will run through November 2nd.

Hulu and Disney Plus deals

Now until December 2nd at 11:59PM PT, you can get a year of ad-supported Hulu for 99 cents a month, or $11.88 for the year. Hulu grants access to originals like The Handmaid’s Tale, as well as non-Hulu content like Shogun, The BearFuturama, Say Nothing, and Alien: Romulus.

Until December 2nd at 11:59PM PT, you can get alternatively get a Hulu with Disney Plus bundle for $2.99 a month for the next year. Disney Plus provides access to a wealth of shows and movies, including X-Men ‘97 and The Acolyte.

As part of a Good Morning America promo that runs through December 2nd, new and existing subscribers who are returning to Hulu after a month’s absence can get a year of the ad-supported plan for $0.99 a month instead of $9.99, or $11.88 ($108 off) for a full year. You can also add Disney Plus (with ads) to the mix when you subscribe to Disney Bundle Duo Basic, which will run you $2.99 a month instead of $10.99. That means instead of paying $131.88 a year for the two streaming services, you’re just paying a total of $35.88.

The ad-free plans won’t let you download content for offline viewing, nor will they let you skip the commercials (obviously). If you’re okay with that, though, either deal will let you stream all of Hulu’s TV shows and films, including The Handmaid’s Tale, Sand Land, and Only Murders in the Building. You’ll also be able to access plenty of non-Hulu content, such as Shogun, The Bear, Futurama, and Say Nothing.

Adding Disney Plus means you also get to access the entire Disney Plus library, which encompasses Star Wars, Marvel, Pixar, and even National Geographic content. That means you’ll be able to stream Star Wars: Skeleton Crew once when it arrives on December 2nd, along with Deadpool & Wolverine, X-Men ‘97, Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour film, Ron Howard’s Jim Henson documentary, and everything else already available to stream.

Max deals

As a part of its Black Friday / Cyber Monday promotion, Max is letting new and returning subscribers sign up for its monthly, ad-supported tier for just $2.99 for the first six months.

Right now, new and returning subscribers can subscribe to Max’s monthly, ad-supported plan for $2.99 instead of $9.99 for the first six months. That means instead of paying $60 for half a year, you’ll only be forking out $18, thus saving yourself $42.

Max grants access to a wide range of popular TV shows and movies, including House of the Dragon, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, Dune Prophecy, The Last of Us, The Penguin, Hacks, and even content from Discovery Plus. The ad-supported plan lets you binge that entire library, but you won’t be able to download shows for offline viewing as you can on the ad-free plans. You’re also limited to streaming on two devices at once.

Paramount Plus with Showtime deals

Paramount Plus and Showtime grant you ad-free access to live sports as well as movies and shows from both platforms, including Star TrekTop Gun: Maverick, and Yellowjackets. New and returning subscribers can sign up for the ad-free Paramount Plus with Showtime plan for $2.99 month for two months until December 4th.

New and returning subscribers can currently sign up for two months of the ad-free Paramount Plus with Showtime plan for just $2.99 a month. Paramount Plus with Showtime normally goes for $12.99 a month, so you’re potentially saving up to $22.99 over two months. Just bear in mind that this deal ends on Wednesday, December 4th.

In addition to letting you download movies and shows for offline viewing, the Paramount Plus and Showtime plan grants you access to the Paramount Plus library, including Yellowstone spinoffs 1883 and 1923, Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, The Daily Show, and Landman.
