The streaming service will include programs from CBS, BET, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon, MTV, and The Smithsonian Channel.

Of course, existing CBS All Access exclusives will also remain available, including "<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/how-to-watch-star-trek-discovery" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Star Trek: Discovery</a>" and "<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/how-to-watch-the-stand-cbs-all-access" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Stand</a>."</p><p>The new streaming service will also keep its predecessor's huge catalog of classic shows and the rebrand will signal a dive into more of ViacomCBS' library over the next year. ViacomCBS has previously announced that the rebrand will include the addition of at least 10,000 TV episodes.</p><h2><strong>When does Paramount Plus launch'</strong></h2><p>If you're in the US or Latin America, you can start watching <a href="https://cbsallaccess.qflm.net/c/196318/175360/3065'u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.paramountplus.com%2F" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored">Paramount Plus</a> on March 4.

For the commercial-free plan, you can pay $10 a month or $100 a year. Each plan comes with a free one-week trial. It's unclear whether Paramount Plus will keep those prices once the rebrand launches on March 4.</p><p>With that said, customers who sign up for a CBS All Access subscription ahead of the transition can lock in a special discounted annual rate for <a href="https://cbsallaccess.qflm.net/c/196318/175360/3065'u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.paramountplus.com%2F" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow sponsored">Paramount Plus</a>.

There will also be reboots of shows like MTV's "Behind The Music," BET's "The Game," and a "Criminal Minds"-inspired docuseries called "The Real Criminal Minds."</p><p>Other series will include Star Trek-based content, like "Star Trek: Discovery" and "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds," along with a straight-to-video release of "The Spongebob Movie: Sponge On The Run." </p><p>Time will tell how <a href="https://cbsallaccess.qflm.net/c/196318/175360/3065'u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.paramountplus.com%2F" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored">Paramount Plus</a> stacks up to similar streaming services, like <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/disney-plus">Disney Plus</a> and <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/how-to-watch-wonder-woman-1984-hbo-max">HBO Max</a>. But, if you can lock in the $30 deal for a one-year subscription, the low price alone could make this a very appealing streaming option.</p><bi-shortcode id="commerce-link" class="mceNonEditable" data-cardtype="small" data-pid="602411f288948700119fe18f" data-purchase-option="">Product Card (small)</bi-shortcode><p><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/paramount-plus-streaming-service#comments">Join the conversation about this story »</a></p>
