Pluto TV and CBS Launch Full-Season Promotional Preview Campaign

LOS ANGELES, August 29, 2025 - Pluto TV, the leading free streaming television service, today confirmed the launch of its largest-ever full-season preview event in partnership with CBS. Starting September 1 and running through September 30, viewers will gain free, on-demand access to the complete recent seasons of six hit CBS original series, marking a significant expansion of Pluto TV’s ad-supported streaming lineup and a strategic effort to drive engagement ahead of the new broadcast season.

The preview slate includes:

  • Elsbeth Season 2
  • Fire Country Season 3
  • Ghosts Season 4
  • Matlock Season 1
  • NCIS: Origins Season 1
  • Watson Season 1

All six series will be available both on Pluto TV’s virtual-on-demand (VOD) library and its dedicated linear channels, offering viewers a “sampling” of CBS’s primetime hits at no charge and without a subscription.

Paramount Global President of Streaming and Ad‐Supported Video Channels, Kelly Day, stated, “This cross-platform initiative underscores the power of free, ad-supported streaming to build audience excitement and give viewers a convenient way to catch up on the network’s biggest franchises.”

The promotion also coincides with the upcoming CBS Fall TV launch, giving fans an early opportunity to binge and discover shows they may have missed before new episodes begin airing. Pluto TV will continue to offer the four most recent episodes of select in-season CBS series on demand as part of its “CBS Latest Episodes” feature throughout the fall.
