    About

    Paramount+ launched on October 28, 2014, as CBS All Access, a streaming service built around the CBS broadcast network. On March 4, 2021, it was rebranded as Paramount+ following the merger of Viacom and CBS Corporation into ViacomCBS (later renamed Paramount Global). The rebranding gave the service access to a vast library spanning CBS, Showtime, Paramount Pictures, Nickelodeon, MTV, Comedy Central, and BET.

    The service produces original series like Star Trek: Discovery, The Good Fight, and 1883, a Yellowstone prequel. It also streams live sports, including NFL games and Champions League soccer, a key differentiator from competitors. Paramount+ is available in the United States, Canada, Australia, Latin America, and parts of Europe, with localized content in some markets.

    In 2023, Paramount Global launched a global branding campaign called "Popular is Paramount," emphasizing the service's hit franchises. The parent company reported US$29.2 billion in revenue for 2024, though it also posted a net loss of US$6.2 billion. In August 2025, Paramount Global merged with Skydance Media to form Paramount Skydance Corporation.
