Netflix, Apple TV+, Prime Video and Disney+ have a fast-growing rival that you don’t have to shell out an arm and a leg for. With prices rising each year, streamers may be spoilt for choice but the cost of their weekly binge-watch is getting out of hand.
Thankfully, there could be a solution as Fox’s rival platform Tubi is getting more popular by the minute. In fact, it recently revealed its number of subscribers has grown to 97 million - all of whom aren’t paying a single penny for its wide range of content.
It claims to offer “the world’s largest collection of movies and TV episodes, including over 300 original exclusive originals”. The only catch? Your viewing will occasionally be interrupted by adverts in return for not requiring bank details, much like watching TV used to be just a few years ago.
Titles range from cult classics like Donnie Darko and Cruel Intentions to fan-favourite TV shows like Peep Show and Gracepoint. Tubi also boasts an incredible range of original content, with the streaming service saying that one in four viewers are tuning in alongside their more vintage titles.
One of their more recent series, Sidelined: The QB and Me, was released back in November and quickly made history, attracting Tubi’s biggest viewership in its first week. There are also plenty of new releases to look forward to in 2025, including a Western thriller starring Peter Dinklage and Juliette Lewis called The Thicket.
