TV Select, Spectrum’s base-level plan, advertises 125+ live TV channels, including the 30 most-watched cable TV channels, and they’re all in high-definition (HD). Let’s explore Select’s channels further, as well as the various premium channels and add-on packages you can add to your Spectrum TV service.
Among Select’s 125+ channels, you’ll find all of the top 30 most-watched channels1, including local broadcast affiliates, major cable news networks, and cable mainstays like the Hallmark Channel, Lifetime, and Discovery Channel.

Let’s say you’re not really into the top-quality, commercial-free movies and shows that HBO and SHOWTIME peddle—you’d prefer an abundance of choices. With Spectrum’s reasonably priced Digital Tier Package upgrades, you can have the huge channel menu you desire.
Atención! Spectrum TV Select has Galavisión, Telemundo, and Univision, and other local Spanish-language channels depending on where you live. But you can also opt for a Latino channel package. There’s even a 50-channel Latino View add-on pack.

Can’t live without sportsballs? Select has a healthy number of them bouncin’ around. As our old gym teachers would say during dodgeball, “Comin’ in hot!”
You’ll also get regional sports channels specific to your area!
