Paramount+ August 2026 lineup offers few new shows, higher fees

Paramount+ in Germany will add a modest slate of new content for August 2026, totaling about 26 original episodes. The headline offering is the third season of the series "Lioness," followed by the double‑season release of "Average Joe" and additional episodes of established series such as NCIS (seasons 20‑22), Blue Bloods (seasons 13‑14) and The Challenge (season 42). The month also features a selection of films, including "One Mile" and "The Man in the White Van."

The service’s pricing structure has been updated: an ad‑supported basic tier costs €5.99 per month with HD streaming on one device, a standard ad‑free tier is €9.99 with HD on two streams, and a premium tier offering 4K UHD, Dolby Atmos and HDR is €12.99. Compared with competitors like Netflix and Prime Video, the August catalogue is considered limited, relying heavily on existing licensed titles.
