Xfinity Popular channel lineup FAQ

What channels are included in basic cable from Comcast/Xfinity?

We don’t recommend Xfinity’s basic cable packages. There’s no good reason to pay monthly for your local channels and subchannels since you can get them with an easy-to-install over-the-air (OTA) antenna for a one-time payment of $20–$70.

What is the difference between Xfinity Choice TV and Popular TV?

Xfinity Choice TV ($20.00–$25.00 monthly depending on your region) is a basic cable package with only your local channels and subchannels. It’s an inexpensive plan—but you can get the same channels with an over-the-air (OTA) TV antenna for a one-time cost of $25–$70.

Xfinity Popular TV ($50.00–$60.00 monthly, 125+ channels) is the cable TV provider’s next highest package. If you need more channels,  try Xfinity Ultimate TV is ($68.50–$80.00 monthly, 185+ channels).

 

What streaming service comes free with Xfinity?

Xfinity customers can get Peacock Premium (regularly $5.99 monthly) free for 6–24 months, depending on your plan.
