One of the delights of any summer downtime is a chance to finally binge the best television shows. And thanks to Amazon Prime Day 2022, now Prime members can sign up for Paramount+ for just 99 cents for two months. Yup, for less than one dollar a month, you can be binging shows like Criminal Minds, Freaks and Geeks, Tell Me a Story and Key & Peele, as well as blockbuster films like Interstellar and Breakfast at Tiffany’s, plus all the Indiana Jones

a month you can be binging shows like Criminal Minds, Freaks and Geeks, Tell Me a Story and Key & Peele and blockbuster films like Interstellar, Breakfast at Tiffany’s plus all the Indiana Jones flicks. Talk about a steal.

So, how does one sign up for such a stellar deal? Here's how it works: Through July 13, you can sign up for a free 30-day trial of Prime Video ($15 per month after the trial) or log in to subscribe to up to 18 different video channels, including Paramount+, normally priced between $5 and $11 per month, for just under a buck.

You can also sign up for 99-cent subscriptions to BET+ and Showtime. That means you’ll get access to original series such as The Boys (edgy) and The Year I Turned Pretty (romantic), as well as movies such as Marry Me, No Time to Die and Respect. You’ll also snag reduced rates on film rentals while they're still in theaters, so you can watch everything from a prestige horror film, like Crimes of the Future (starring Kristen Stewart and Viggo Mortensen), to thrillers, such as Ambulance (starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II).

And because you signed up for Prime Video, you can stream all Amazon’s original series like Fleabag and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and have access to some of the most talked-about shows (we see you, Reacher fans) and movies of the season.

This deal is a great way to sample not only Amazon Prime and Paramount+, but also all the extra channels, and catch up on all those shows you've heard about before deciding which ones you want to keep (or not) for fall and beyond. But this offer is only available until July 13, so act fast ... your cultural literacy and TV chill time awaits.
