Fubo's channel lineup is huge. The largest among the higher-priced streaming services, FuboTV includes almost all of the local networks as well as top cable brands. https://www.fubo-connect.com/ In summer 2020, they added Disney-owned channels like ABC and ESPN, but took away Turned-owned channels like CNN and TNT. Fubo is also lacking the AE networks.

Fubotv/connect offers a free, seven-day trial of its default Starter plan, which costs $64.99 a month for over 120 channels, 250 hours of Cloud DVR storage and three simultaneous streams. The Ultra plan costs $84.99 and adds the Fubo Extra and Sports Plus packages on top of the Family plan.

All plans come with six profiles per account, so friends and family members can customize their preferences.

On top of one of the plans, Fubo users can pay for add-ons, like Showtime and Starz. There are also over a dozen add-on bundles and premium channels, which we outline below.

Fubo does offer the Viacom-owned networks, like MTV, Comedy Central and Nickelodeon. For their full channel lineup.

The add-ons include two premium channels and several packages geared toward different interests, primarily niche sports. The service recently added MLB Network + MLB StrikeZone and the NHL Network.

Here's a look at the add-on packages you can get from Fubo:

Showtime ($10.99)

AMC Premiere ($4.99)

$10.99 for Sports Plus (NFL Red Zone, NBA TV, Tennis Channel, GolTV)

$11.99 for Fubo Cycling

$5.99 for International Sports Plus (Zona Futbol, Fox Soccer Plus)

$4.99 for Adventure Plus (Outdoor Channel, Sportsman Channel, Outside TV)

$7.99 for Latino Plus

$7.99 for Rai Italia

$14.99 for Portuguese Plus

$4.99 for Entretenimiento Plus

$5.99 for Fubo Extra (Cooking Channel, Game Show Network, Logo, TeenNick)

Fubo.tv/connect also lacks original programming, which two of its competitors — YouTube TV and Hulu With Live TV — have. Those services are similarly priced yet offer original shows (and in Hulu's case, award-winning titles like The Handmaid's Tale). Not to say Fubo should get in the originals game — honestly, there's too much stuff out there anyway — but it does make that high cost a bit less justifiable.
