(PCMag/Disney+, HBO Max, Paramount+, Hulu, Apple TV)
Video streaming services have all but replaced cable. Although these numerous subscriptions offer freedom, variety, and flexibility when it comes to entertainment, it's becoming increasingly expensive to watch all the movies and TV they offer, whether as standalone options or as part of a bundle. You can trust me on this one. I've been covering video streaming services at PCMag for years, and nearly all the major services have recently hiked their prices.
However, the holiday shopping season is all about savings, and streaming services seize the opportunity to lock in vital annual customers with great Black Friday Deals. This year is no different. If you want to watch the hottest movies and shows, check out these great deals on my favorite, top-rated video streaming services. I won't steer you wrong.
Disney+ & Hulu Black Friday Deal
Disney+ and Hulu form one of the strongest teams in streaming, thanks to Disney's beloved franchises (Marvel, Pixar, and Star Wars) and Hulu's acclaimed adult fare (The Bear and The Handmaid's Tale), with the option to expand to live TV. This Black Friday, you can score the Disney+ and Hulu ad-supported bundle for 12 months for $4.99 per month, saving an impressive 38% off the regular price. You must act fast, though; the deal lasts until December 1.
Here's some more insight on what you'll get with the Disney+ & Hulu Black Friday deal.
HBO Max Black Friday Deal
HBO Max also has some of the most recognizable properties in entertainment. It contains everything from the DC universe to the Food Network to HBO classics (The Sopranos and The Wire). HBO Max's excellent Black Friday deal lets you pay just $2.99 per month (70% off) for a year's subscription with ads, if you subscribe before December 1.

Paramount+ Black Friday Deal
Paramount is rapidly becoming an even bigger media player. That's what high-profile mergers will do to a company. The Paramount+ Black Friday deal offers a reduced price of just $2.99 per month for the first two months of your subscription. It's a nice, quick, and cheap way to get your Dexter fix, as long as you subscribe by December 2. Conversely, you can unlock an entire free year of Paramount+ (or Peacock) if you subscribe to Walmart+ this Black Friday at 50% off.

Apple TV Black Friday Deal
Apple TV Plus is an easy pickup right now if you want fresh shows without jumping into another overpriced subscription. You get the big Apple originals, weekly new releases, and live sports in one place, plus the kind of premium shows Apple loves flexing with, think Severance, Pluribus, The Morning Show, all that high budget drama. For the first six months it drops to $5.99 instead of the usual $12.99, which is a solid excuse to finally catch up on everything people keep telling you to watch.
You may be wondering about Netflix, the company that kicked off the streaming boom and is arguably the biggest name in the space. Unfortunately, it seems Netflix isn't offering a Black Friday deal this year, so you'll need to pay full price for the final season of Stranger Things.
