Spectrum TV Add-Ons are a great way to make the most out of your chosen Spectrum TV package. When shopping for Spectrum services, you don't have to just pick a TV plan and be done with it. Instead, your family can customize your TV plan to make it essentially exactly how you want it.

Perhaps the best thing about signing up for Spectrum, whether it's for TV, Internet, phone or everything, is that you never need to worry about contracts or data caps. Spectrum understands that customers don't want to be locked into long-term agreements, especially in this world where circumstances can change quickly.

Let's dive into some details about Spectrum TV Add-Ons and how they can be applied to every available Spectrum cable TV or streaming plan.

What Are Spectrum TV Add-Ons?

Spectrum TV Add-Ons are, well, add-ons. They are channels or packs that can be added to your monthly Spectrum TV bill for a pretty reasonable price. That being said, the TV Add-Ons that can be applied to each TV plan varies, and add-on availability may differ depending on your location.

In general, there are a few different categories of Spectrum TV Add-Ons available to consumers. Remember that not all add-ons may be eligible to add to every cable or streaming plan.

For sports fans, the Spectrum Sports View add-on package is only $10/mo. and lets you catch all the best action from professional and collegiate sports, plus top sports networks. That's incredible value for any sports lover.

For fans of all things entertainment, the Spectrum Entertainment View add-on package is only $16/mo. and allows you to watch all the best entertainment and lifestyle networks.

For families with international ties or for those who simply want to expand their cultural horizons, Spectrum offers international add-on channels. Households can choose from Chinese, Filipino, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latino, Portuguese, South Asian and Vietnamese live networks, news and films.

If you're a premium network lover, you'll love Spectrum TV's premium channel add-ons. Customers can add MAX^™, SHOWTIME^®, CINEMAX^®, STARZ^®, STARZ ENCORE^® and THE MOVIE CHANNEL^™ to their TV plan with ease. You'll be able to catch all the latest and greatest blockbuster series and films built right into your TV plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Spectrum TV plans are there?

Customers can choose between Spectrum TV Select Signature, Spectrum TV Select Plus, or Spectrum Mi Plan Latino if they prefer a cable TV plan. If you prefer a streaming-only plan, Spectrum TV Stream and Spectrum TV Stream Latino are available. Please note that a Spectrum Internet plan is required to subscribe to a Spectrum streaming-only TV plan.

Does Spectrum have streaming?

Spectrum does indeed have streaming-only TV with its Spectrum TV Stream and Spectrum TV Stream Latino plans. A Spectrum Internet plan is required for both plans. This means that although, for example, Spectrum TV Stream is only $40/mo., the minimum cost you would be paying per month is $70 because TV Stream + Spectrum Internet Premier (500 Mbps) is $70/mo. When compared to the cost of cable TV, this is still an incredible deal, but it's something to be aware of. Spectrum cable TV customers can also stream content through the Spectrum TV App.
