The streaming service includes shows, both old and more recent, from several networks. While Discovery previously released some of its shows on other streaming services, including Netflix , it has now decided to become a direct competitor. As of this writing, Discovery says its service has over 2, older and recent shows, which total over 55, episodes. The company still operates its older Discovery Go streaming service. However, it requires an active cable or satellite TV subscription to access, while Discovery Plus does not.
Discovery Go will not have any exclusive content that will be available on Discovery Plus either. You can watch home improvement shows, food shows, nature and science programming, and even popular reality series all in one place, with new programming to come. Discovery Plus is also available from the jump on nearly all the major streaming platforms.
Some of its programming is available in 4K streaming resolution as well. At the moment, the service is only available in the US. The service will launch in other parts of the world later this year as well. In Europe, Discovery Plus will expand its content to include sports programming via Eurosport.
It will include the tennis Grand Slams, cycling Grand Tours, motorsport, football, and winter sports. Also, Discovery Plus will become the streaming service for the Olympic Games in most European markets.
Discovery Plus in the US has two subscription tiers. You can do away with all commercials if you pay a bit more money. The service comes with a seven-day free trial, which means you can sign up and stream all you want for a week. You can cancel your subscription before the trial period ends and not be charged. If you are or will become a Verizon unlimited wireless customer, you will be able to get Discovery Plus for free for a much longer period.
Unlike the launches of some recent major streaming services like HBO Max and Peacock, Discovery Plus has been available on nearly all the major streaming platforms from the start.
Once you sign onto the service, you can browse through its selection of shows by a couple of methods. If you know exactly which show you want to stream, you can type it in the search bar. Discovery Plus supports up to five user profiles per account.
Each account also supports up to four concurrent streams. More devices will add 4K support in the coming months. The higher resolution content is mostly nature and animal-related programming.
The service has recently added Virtual Channels. At the time of writing, the service does not have any parental controls.
Once a dull, fact-laden network, it has morphed into a modern freak show: an enormously lucrative one with ratings high enough to turn everyday eccentrics into international superstars. TLC cancelled Here Comes Honey Boo Boo when the allegations surfaced although it should be noted that the show was also suffering in the ratings at the time. Maza is referring specifically to the Duggar matriarch, Michelle, who draws lineups at Conservative Political Action Conference events and last summer fought the passage of an Arkansas bill that would prohibit discrimination by landlords and businesses on grounds of sexual orientation and gender identity.
After the bill passed, she lobbied for months to have it repealed, raising thousands of dollars and collecting hundreds of thousands of petition signatures. In December, it was. TLC is emerging as an influential political force, whether it wants to or not. But it is also quite possibly the most diverse network on TV today. As long as the ratings come in, it will surely continue to be.
