YouTube TV Adds 1-Month Extended Free Trials of Premium Services Like Showtime, CuriosityStream, and Acorn TV

Just after their 1-month free trial to Epix expired, YouTube TV has added new free trial offers for their subscribers. Starting today, Showtime, CuriosityStream, and four premium services from AMC (AcornTV, Sundance Now, UMC, and Shudder) are available with an extended 30-Day Free Trial.

You have until May 6th to sign-up, but unlike the Epix promotion, you will be automatically billed if you don’t choose to cancel before the 30-Day Trial expires.

Available 30-Day Trials

  • Showtime
  • CuriosityStream
  • Acorn TV
  • Sundance Now
  • UMC
  • Shudder

The promotion matches what Showtime and AMC are offering directlyfor the services, but gives you another chance to get a sneak peak. If you have subscribed to these services through YouTube TV before, it doesn’t look like you’re eligible. However, if you have signed-up through Prime Video Channels or directly through the services themselves you would be.
