What Will The Super Bowl Be Streamed On
Okay, folks, let's talk about the real Super Bowl MVP. I'm talking about... your streaming service!
Because honestly, who even remembers who won last year? (Just kidding, congrats to the... uh... the team with the quarterback who threw the thingy!). But we all remember the buffering.
Where's the Party (and the Stream)?
So, where are we watching the big game this year? The answer, my friends, is... Paramount+!
Must Read
Yup, CBS has the rights this year. And CBS is owned by Paramount. It's all very corporate and exciting (sort of).
This means you can stream it via the Paramount+ app. Or, you know, just over-the-air with an antenna, like our ancestors. Remember those days? Ah, simpler times...
Other Options? Sure, Why Not?
Don't want to shell out for Paramount+? I get it. Subscription fatigue is real.
You could also try FuboTV, Hulu + Live TV, YouTube TV, or DirecTV Stream. They usually carry CBS.
But be warned! They might require a subscription. So, technically, you are still paying to watch.
It's like those "free" concerts that cost $50 for parking. Just saying.
The Unpopular Opinion Zone (Enter at Your Own Risk)
Okay, here's my controversial take: streaming the Super Bowl is overrated.
Fight me in the comments! (Please don't actually fight me.)
Seriously though. Let's be real. Streaming is great... until it isn't. You know what I'm talking about. That crucial play, that killer halftime performance... interrupted by the dreaded spinning wheel.
There is my opinion: you’re better off at a Super Bowl party, where at least you can blame someone else's internet for the glitches.
Also, pizza. Don't forget the pizza.
What to Expect When You're Expecting to Stream
Alright, alright, I'll admit streaming has its perks. You can pause to pee!
And rewind to see that amazing catch (or that truly awful commercial) again. All reasons not to leave your couch for hours.
Just make sure you have a stable internet connection. Close all those unnecessary tabs! Tell your kids to stop watching TikTok videos! Your house's internet is a zero-sum game.
Consider investing in a good Ethernet cable. Yes, I know, it's archaic. But trust me, wired is always better than wireless when it comes to preventing buffering during the Super Bowl, because buffering during the Super Bowl is simply unacceptable.
The Final Verdict
So, there you have it. Paramount+ is your most direct route to Super Bowl streaming glory.
But hey, explore those other options too! Just be prepared for potential subscription fees and, you know, the inevitable technical difficulties.
And remember: even if the stream goes down, the commercials are still worth watching. (Probably.)
Enjoy the game (and the ads)! And may the best stream win.
May your buffering be minimal, your pizza be plentiful, and your team... well, good luck!
