Perhaps the most useful thing about the new Google TV platform is the ability to aggregate and organize content from a variety of different sources. Which ones, though? Here’s a full list of streaming services that Google TV supports at launch.
Of course, Google can pull content from its own services such as YouTube TV and also Google TV (formerly Play Movies). Beyond that, however, are quite a few third-party services. Major players like Disney+, Hulu, and HBO Max are included, and NBC’s Peacock. The full list of services can be found below as provided by Google.
- ABC
- Amazon Prime Video
- AMC
- A&E
- CBS All Access
- Crackle
- Comedy Central
- DC Universe
- Disney NOW

- Fox Now
- Google Play Movies (now Google TV)

This list of supported streaming services will likely expand over time, so we’ll keep an eye out for changes on Google TV and update this article accordingly.
Update: NBC Peacock added full Google TV support around December 15th. This allows content from the service including “The Office” as of January 1st to show up in the Google TV app as well as in search on the new Chromecast.
The Google Play Movies & TV app that this new platform replaces had a similar function to Google TV by finding content on a variety of different services, but it wasn’t very widely used. By integrating with your account-wide Google watchlist and being placed directly on your TV, Google TV has a much better chance to support this function.
Google TV is available on your TV first on the new Chromecast and is rolling out now on Android smartphones.
