Mediacom Local TV Channel Lineup: Nothing but the Basics for a High Price

✦ Edited and fact-checked by Managing Editor Mike Strayer, our editorial lead with over ten years of experience covering TV and entertainment.

The Mediacom Local TV channel lineup only features local channels

Mediacom Local TV is the foundational TV plan from Xtream (i.e., it don’t get any lower than this). This basic-tier plan is designed to ensure you never miss your essential broadcast programming, as it includes all your local channels and their subchannels.

Local TV is your go-to for major network content, including ABC, CBS, FOX, and NBC. You also get other essential channels like C-SPAN, BYUtv, and ION available in full HD.

The downside? Local TV is too damn expensive for folks who only need local news, primetime network shows, and live events. Just get a digital antenna for a one-time payment of about $50.

Mediacom Local TV pricing is outrageous, TBH

So, remember to also factor in the cost of internet service. To get a comprehensive understanding of your total monthly bill and explore internet options, take a peek at our Mediacom Internet Plans and Pricing guide.

While premium channels are not included in the Local TV channel lineup, you can easily add popular choices like HBO Max, Paramount+ with SHOWTIME, STARZ, and Cinemax to supplement your lineup.

Mediacom Xtream TV customer satisfaction is, as the kids say, “mid”

For instance, in terms of streaming quality, Xtream came in third place, with 74% of customers either completely or very satisfied. Overall, you can expect down-the-middle service from Mediacom but nothing to really get pumped about.
