What’s Coming to Pluto TV in February 2023, Including ‘The Defiant Ones’ and ‘Runaway Bride’

Pluto TV’s programming for February is concentrated on Valentine’s Day and Black History Month. The latter will feature an array of black movies and stars in various genres. Of special note, Feb. 20 is Sidney Poitier’s birthday, celebrated with some of his most notable movies, including “The Defiant Ones,” “Paris Blues,” and his Oscar-winning performance as Best Actor in “Lilies of the Field.”

“The Defiant Ones,” which also garnered an Oscar nomination for Poitier and his co-star Tony Curtis, is the dramatic story of two prisoners, one black, one white, shackled together in a Southern chain gang. Once they escape, despite their initial hatred, they must join forces to survive. And in time, they discover a love and respect for each other. The 1958 film, directed by Stanley Kramer, was critically acclaimed on release.

Valentine’s Day releases include “Runaway Bride,” starring Julia Roberts as a woman who left three grooms at the altar, and Richard Gere as the journalist covering her unusual behavior.

Check out “The Defiant Ones” trailer:

Pluto TV

Pluto TV is a free streaming service backed by Paramount that offers a traditional cable-like channel surfing experience. The service offers hundreds of free round-the-clock channels, including classics like “Star Trek,” “The Twilight Zone,” and “The Price is Right.”

…

Rather than attempting to carry expensive local broadcast affiliates or high-profile live sports leagues, the lineup leans heavily into curated thematic programming. You will find dedicated channels cycling non-stop episodes of many classic TV shows, alongside niche feeds for anime, true crime, classic sitcoms, and live headline news loops from outlets like CBS News. Alongside the live grid, there is also a hefty on-demand vault filled with older Hollywood catalog films, cult classics, and complete archived series.

Because Pluto TV mirrors linear broadcast television, you cannot pause or fast-forward through commercial breaks, nor is there a cloud DVR feature to record airings for later viewing. That said, it’s a great alternative for those looking for a wide range of channels without subscription fees.
