Xfinity offers three cable packages: Choice, Popular, and Ultimate. Choice is a basic cable package that we wouldn’t recommend (pick yourself up an over-the-air antenna instead), but we like both the Popular and Ultimate packages.
The Popular package is a good plan for folks who don’t need extra channels like Disney XD or the MLB Network. But if you want the whole enchilada, Ultimate is for you.

Keep in mind that Xfinity’s channel counts and TV plan names vary with your region. For the purposes of this chart, we used an address in the West region, so there may be a few discrepancies if you live in the Northeast or Central regions.
Xfinity advertises 125+ channels in Popular and 185+ in Ultimate.
Xfinity also offers a basic cable package (Choice), which we wouldn’t recommend. Instead, consider an HD antenna for a one-time cost of roughly $40.00 if you wanna save some cash.
What’s with the plus symbols? Xfinity guarantees a certain number of channels, so 185+ means you’ll get at least that many channels plus—possibly—more.
What channels are included in my regional Xfinity package?
Xfinity channels may vary by region. You can find a pretty close estimation to what you’ll get in the table below, but you can also check your zip code in Xfinity’s channel lineup tool to see your region’s offerings.
Popular channels available with Xfinity TV
All three of Xfinity’s TV packages have all 30 of most-watched TV channels according to *Variety1.
Note: Xfinity does not list Adult Swim as a separate channel because it airs on Cartoon Network. Variety separates the two networks in its rankings. So although you won’t see Adult Swim in Xfinity channel lineups, rest assured that it’s there—as Cartoon Network.
