Pluto TV, the free ad-supported streaming service owned by Paramount, added several new always-on live channels to its lineup on Monday, November 9, 2026. The additions expand the platform’s sports, lifestyle, and film offerings without requiring a subscription, credit card, or paid tier. Viewers can access the new feeds through the Pluto TV app, website, connected televisions, and supported streaming devices, where the channels appear in the live guide alongside the service’s existing hundreds of linear options.
The NBA Fast Channel joins the sports category with continuous basketball programming. It features highlights, game recaps, player features, and classic moments from across the league, giving fans a dedicated free destination for NBA content outside of live national broadcasts. Power Nation, the long-running automotive how-to network, arrives as a 24-hour feed focused on vehicle builds, engine work, truck modifications, and restoration projects. Its lineup draws from established series that emphasize hands-on instruction and practical tips for car enthusiasts.
Women’s Sports Network expands coverage of female athletes and competitions. The channel includes game action, studio programming, highlights, and original segments spanning basketball, soccer, volleyball, and other sports, reflecting growing interest in women’s athletics among free-streaming audiences. These sports additions complement Pluto TV’s existing live sports channels and on-demand library.
On the entertainment side, Pluto Franchise Favorites curates continuous programming from popular film and television series collections. The channel rotates entries from well-known franchises, offering viewers a linear way to revisit multi-installment stories without searching the on-demand catalog. Pluto Recent Releases focuses on newer theatrical and streaming titles that have entered the free library, presenting them in a steady rotation that prioritizes current releases alongside supporting content.
Lifetime Holiday Movie Favorites marks a seasonal expansion ahead of the winter holidays. The channel runs classic and contemporary Lifetime-style romantic and family holiday films in continuous blocks, joining other temporary and permanent holiday feeds that Pluto TV has introduced throughout November as part of its annual seasonal programming push. These movie channels sit alongside the platform’s broader film and series lineup, which has grown through library additions in recent weeks.
The new channels follow Pluto TV’s established pattern of frequent linear launches throughout 2026. The service regularly surfaces thematic collections, sports feeds, and genre blocks to give cord-cutters and free-streaming viewers more lean-back options supported entirely by advertising. Exact channel numbers can vary by region or device, but the feeds are positioned as ongoing parts of the free guide rather than limited promotions. Viewers can locate them by opening the live TV guide and scanning recent additions or searching by name.
These additions arrive as free ad-supported streaming continues to compete with subscription services by emphasizing variety and zero-cost access. Pluto TV’s live channels allow audiences to discover or return to specific types of programming without navigating menus, while the underlying model relies on commercial breaks rather than monthly fees. The November 9 expansions strengthen the platform’s sports and holiday offerings in particular, providing immediate new choices for viewers seeking continuous basketball content, automotive instruction, women’s sports coverage, franchise collections, recent films, and seasonal movies.
