‘Tis the season for streaming. Black Friday is one of the best times (if not the best time) to sign up for streaming services, as you can typically score some serious savings on monthly membership fees. In years past, we’ve seen Hulu offer 99 cent subscriptions and Max offer six months of streaming for $2.99 per month. So, if history is any indication, we’re in for a treat in 2024 — especially since prices have skyrocketed over the past year.
The streaming services you know and love are starting to drop their Black Friday deals ahead of Black Friday proper and we’re here for it. Amazon’s sale has also kicked up some impressive deals on some streamers if you choose to subscribe as a Prime Video add-on. That means you’ll need a Prime membership or an existing Prime Video account in order to snag those discounts up to 75% off.
We’re expecting even more Black Friday streaming deals to come in this week and we’ll update this list with the latest and greatest ones as they drop. As for now, here are the best Black Friday streaming deals live.
Best Black Friday streaming deal
Peacock Premium
$1.99/month for six months or $19.99/year (save up to $60) with codes REALDEALMONTHLY or REALDEAL
Why we like it
Peacock drops one of the best streaming deals year after year during Black Friday season. And because of the streamer’s price hike back in July, this year’s deal is even better. Through Dec. 2, new and returning Peacock subscribers can score a year of ad-supported Peacock Premium for either $1.99/month for six months (reg. $7.99/month) or $19.99 for an entire year (reg. $79.99/year) using the codes REALDEALMONTHLY or REALDEAL, respectively. That’s 75% in savings. Peacock is home to classic TV hits like The Office and New Girl, Peacock Originals like Poker Face and Love Island USA, new theatrical releases from Universal like Abigail, The Fall Guy, and Twisters, as well as live sports, reality TV on Bravo, and more. At just $20 for the whole year, it’s going to be a hard deal to beat this Black Friday.
Runner-up Black Friday streaming deal
Why we like it
Max has resurrected its exact Black Friday deal from last year, but that doesn’t make us love it any less. If you’re a new or returning Max subscriber, you can score six months of the streamer’s plan with ads for just $2.99 per month instead of $9.99 per month. That saves you $42 total. The Warner Bros. Discovery-owned streaming service is home to not only Warner Bros. films, but also new A24 theatrical releases. That means you have an insane array of hit films at your fingertips, including Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, Civil War, Love Lies Bleeding, Dune, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, Barbie, Elvis, The Iron Claw, and more. Max also offers its own original series that are definitely worth watching, like True Detective, The Last of Us, and Station Eleven, as well as the B/R Sports add-on for a limited time.

Best Prime Video add-on deal
Why we like it
Typically $12.99 per month, you can score Paramount+ with Showtime for just $2.99 per month for your first two months as a Prime Video add-on. That saves you $20 total and gets you unlimited, ad-free access to the entire Paramount+ catalog, plus Showtime originals and movies (like Yellowjackets and The Curse), live TV with CBS, and college football. Paramount+ is home to NFL on CBS, UEFA Champions League matches, CBS originals like Ghosts, Survivor, and Big Brother, old Nickelodeon and MTV shows, and Paramount’s latest theatrical releases like A Quiet Place: Day One and Smile 2 (coming soon). For just under $6, you can binge a whole lot of stuff over the next two months. After the promo period, the cost will jump back up to $12.99 per month, so be sure to cancel before that if you want to avoid charges. If you’re not a Prime member, Paramount+ is also offering the same deal on their standalone streaming service.
