Paramount Plus with showtime

SO ITS CALLED PARAMOUNT+ WITH SHOW TIME BUT ONLY ABLE TO ACCESS WHAT IS PLAYING NOT WHAT I WANT TO WATCH ON DEMAND SUCH AS LAND MAN? (AS THAT WOULD BE PARAMOUNT+ WITH AN ADDTIONAL SUBCRIPTION?

Hi there @user_7drc9s. That is correct. You will need a separate Paramount + subscription to watch Land Man. 

Hey there user_ey800w 👋 If you see an item on your bill listed as "Paramount+ with SHOWTIME" this does not mean you are subscribed to the standalone Paramount+ service or have access to Paramount+ exclusive content, but rather reflects a merger between Paramount and Showtime that took place on 6/3/2024, subsequently changing the naming of their offerings. What used to reflect on your bill as just "Showtime" denoting that you had access to the live Showtime channels and on-demand content is now reflected as "Paramount+ with SHOWTIME", but the content offerings from Showtime have not changed if you are subscribed.

@user_ia2lme​ I’m having the same problem.  We had been watching it just fine without any additional subscription to Paramount+ and all of a sudden we can’t.  So I reluctantly re-subscribed to Paramount+ even though my Xfinity plan says we have it and Showtime.  We STILL can’t get it.  There’s a box that comes up on Paramount+ saying Manage Plan and to go to web if we want to do that. I don’t!  I just want to watch what I paid for! I can’t get any further to watch the episode!   So, is Xfinity NOT letting me watch it even though my plan clearly says I have Showtime (with Patamount+) even though I realize the latter is for On Demand live tv.  So that’s why I paid Paramount+ $7.99 a month to steam shows in my tv!  What gives?

Hello @user_ia2lme thank you for taking time to reach out over Xfinity Forums on this post. I definitely want to help get the proper expectations set up that the Paramount + App and content is separate from Paramount + with Showtime. Showtime was renamed after the merger with Paramount. Having a subscription to Paramount + with Showtime will allow access to On Demand programing which can be located on the Xfinity button on your remote. 

To access the Paramount + App and content there, you would need the subscription to that service. Currently, for any providers who allow access to the Paramount + App and content there is listed on their website and currently Xfinity isn't on the list:  https://help.paramountplus.com/s/article/PD-I-have-a-subscription-to-the-Paramount-with-SHOWTIME-network-through-my-TV-provider-Do-I-also-get-a-subscription-to-the-Paramount-Premium-plan-on-Paramount

Here is a great article I found on our website that has more information on the content provided with Paramount + with Showtime: https://www.xfinity.com/learn/digital-cable-tv/premium-channels/paramount-plus-with-showtime
