Black Friday and Cyber Monday always have the best streaming deals of the year. But they are available for a limited time and are easy to miss. If you didn’t snag a deal then, we’ve scoured the web for the best holiday streaming deals you can grab before the season ends.
These deals don’t compete with the huge number of options during Black Friday, but there are a few worth pulling the trigger on. While there is no Netflix or Peacock on this list, there are major competitors like Paramount+, Hulu, and Disney+. We’ve highlighted the best picks for the week of Dec. 18, 2025 below — note the expiration dates on each deal.
The best deal for a streaming bundle
Credit: Disney / ESPN / Hulu
$29.99/month for one year (save $6/month)
Why we love you
The best streaming deals are the ones that get you a lot of services for one relatively low price. This is a bundle offer from Disney, which is available until Jan. 5it gets you Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN Unlimited (with ads) for just $29.99 a month for one year. That’s $6 a month in savings or $72 in total savings. ESPN Unlimited gives you access to the entire ESPN catalog, including live events on ESPN and ABC. It includes the complete ESPN portfolio of channels (ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, ESPNEWS, ESPN Deportes, SEC Network, ACC Network, ESPN on ABC, ESPN+, ESPN3, SECN+, and ACCNX). Add ad-supported Hulu and Disney+ to the mix, and you have a complete platform for entertainment, news, and sports at your fingertips for less than $30 a month. Considering ESPN Unlimited is usually $29.99 per month on its own, that’s a pretty good lock-in deal.
The best deal for streaming TV
$49.99/month for your first month (save $40)
Why we love you
This is a busy season for live events, from college football bowl games to the NFL playoffs to the Golden Globes. Don’t miss out on watching in real time – sign up for a live TV streaming service like DirecTV, which is currently holding its first ever holiday sale. You can get your first month of the Signature Entertainment streaming package for just $49.99 (reg. $89.99).
The Entertainment streaming package includes more than 90 channels, such as ABC, FOX, CBS, ESPN, NBC, ESPN, FS1, SEC Network, ACC Network, and more for sports fans. Not to mention the Hallmark Channel, AMC, Freeform, and Lifetime are also included for added entertainment. This agreement only exists until January 6 for new customers.
The best deal for streaming music
Free for 4 months (save $11.99/month)
Why we love you
If you’re looking to stream some music without ads interrupting your sessions, you can get four months of Spotify Premium for free. This is an offer only available to new subscribers until Dec. 31so act quickly if you want to secure the deal. Normally $11.99 per month, that’s about $50 in total savings over four months.
In addition to ad-free listening, Spotify Premium allows you to download music to listen to offline, interact with friends in real time, listen to up to 15 audiobooks per month, and enjoy lossless audio (finally). You’ll also get full control over your music and playlists and get access to Grilled stats and new weekly listening stats.
The best streaming deal for returning subscribers
$0.99/month for 2 months (save $12/month) with code RM2KN3
Why we love you
While most streaming deals are only offered to new subscribers, Paramount+ rewards returning subscribers with a better deal than Black Friday. Select returning subscribers can sign up for Paramount+ Premium for 99 cents a month for two months. That’s $12 a month in savings — just be sure to enter the promo code RM2KN3 on the way out. There’s no word on how long this offer will last, so we recommend you jump on it ASAP. The Premium tier gives you access to the entire Showtime catalog, plus ad-free streaming.

A great deal on a streaming stick
Why we love you
We first saw this deal before Black Friday, and since then it’s been coming and going as it pleases. The code has changed, but it still drops the price of the Fire TV streaming stick — the 4K Select — down to just $9.99 from $39.99. If you’re one of the lucky customers who sees the code appear on the product page (just below the Prime logo), you can save 75% on Amazon’s new 4K streaming device. It features HDR10+ support and a new responsive and fast system called Vega.
