Optimum Select Channel Lineup Guide
Your guide to the 200+ channels included in Optimum Select TV plan—with add-on and pricing information.
Optimum Select offers 200+ channels
The Optimum Select channel lineup includes 200+ channels, representing a 75-channel increase over the Optimum Value TV package ($100.00/mo.) for only $20 more per month. The new channels include popular networks like Animal Planet, Comedy Central, Disney Junior, Disney XD, all three Hallmark Channels, Magnolia Network, NFL Network, Paramount Network, seven STARZENCORE movie channels, VICE, and more—so you get a lot for that extra 20 bucks.
In the table below, you’ll see the complete list of channels available in Optimum Select, along with channels that aren’t in the package (for perspective). Note: Where you see “Optional,” it means the channel isn’t in Optimum Select but you can add it for an additional monthly fee.
