Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Great documentaries; otherwise limited
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this 30 day free trial for ShowTime when I purchased the antenna from BestBuy. I loved First Lady show series. They also have very good documentaries, but there wasn't enough for me to purchase a monthly membership

Depends on your show preference
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not bad. I did find a lot of content that I would benefit from but a free 30 day trial is worth trying. I downloaded it for access to movies. I like that they do offer a discounted price for 6 months not he promo. This would be great if I intended to keep the service.

Showtime
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I received a 30 day trial of Showtime with a purchase and I am considering a subscription.

This is our 6th one in the home
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is our 6th purchase of our Apple TV. We started with the 1st gens now we’re getting the most current ones. Having the capability to watch our apple content on our tv without having to use our Mac’s and being able to mirror our phones to the tv is super helpful. Our iPhones can also be used for a remote. The integration between our apple products is what makes us keep buying this. Next we just need to replace our old apple tv’s

Great way to try Showtime
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like these service add-on's that Best Buy offers. I received this with the purchase of an Amazon Fire stick and am happy to have the opportunity to try Showtime for free for 30 days. It's been years since I've subscribed to this service.

Is what it is
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not usually a big fan of these limited promo/free trial offers. They're ok for a movie or two, but I won't even consider a series in which they hope to hook you so that you extend the service (at a cost of course) for an extended period.

A way to sample "premium" programming
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A free trial is a good way to determine if the programming is a value to you / your family. There are multiple "premium channels" like Showtime and it is a matter of taste as to which one(s) would be the best match for an individuals taste.

Showtime has the best shows!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Free trials allow you to decide if you want to commit to an additional cost on your cable bill. The best thing to do is set an alarm in your phone for the day before the trial is supposed to renew. Watch showtime for free for a month, and not worry about getting billed once the trial is over- win/win. Plus, showtime has the best shows compared to the other add-on cable channels.

FREE Event
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great value and an opportunity to try for 30 days to see if it's something I want to continue. tTe promotion after free is also an excellent value for 6 more months enough time to see if this is for me.

Free 30 day membership, then a reduced monthly fee
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent offer. 30 days free of charge then only $4.99 per month discounted from regular price. If you don't want to extend the membership, just cancel just before your six months is up. Just remember to write down someplace where you can be reminded of when your six months 'reduced rate' membershilp began.

Showtime
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I rated this 5 stars because Showtime is awesome. However, I was not aware that I purchased the 30 day free trial or how it happened. Furthermore, I only found out about my purchase 30 days after the fact. So now when I’d actually like to have the the 30 day fee trial I will not be eligible. Not happy about that. I advice checking your Best Buy purchases periodically.

Free is good! Showtime is great
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Showtime is great! This free-bee was a nice introduction to the Showtime content portfolio. I have lots to watch in the next 30 days! Not sure I will pay for it after the free trial ends though.

Free Trial

Show time
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's alright. The 30 day trail is with it before you start paying for it. I didn't like that at nights the Adult movies would come out. I didn't have no clue but i found out because I stayed up late.

Good entry!
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ah the never-ending subscriptions! It is nice to test it out. I would look at Showtime's library before diving in to insure you'll use it- but a nice way to ease into the subscription!

Great service with lengthy trial
