Philo Adds Nine Free Channels Including Bob Ross, Drag Race Universe, Screambox TV, More
Philo subscribers are used to thinking of the live TV streaming service as a “skinny” channel bundle, one with a breadth of excellent entertainment options like AMC, Hallmark Channel and Nickelodeon. But Philo is getting a little less skinny this week, as the service has announced adding nine new free ad-supported TV (FAST) channels to its lineup.
The new channels join Philo’s selection of more than 70 live cable and FAST channels. Users will find these selections in the Philo guide. Other free TV available on Philo includes USA Today, RetroCrush, Cheddar News, Gusto, and Revry, as well as PlayersTV, Ryan and Friends, and pocket.watch.
