Optimum is ushering in a new era for Optimum TV with the announcement of Extra TV and Everything TV, two new video packages that provide customers with more choice, flexibility and value when choosing their desired TV content. Launching on November 4, these packages come on the heels of the company’s introduction of Entertainment TV, a low-cost, high-quality internet streaming TV package, earlier this year.
Together, Entertainment TV, Extra TV, and Everything TV make up Optimum’s modern video model, bringing to life the new vision of Optimum TV, which helps break conventional all-or-nothing options to better provide content geared toward customers’ unique and modern viewing preferences.
Now, Optimum customers will be able to choose from TV packages tailored to their taste and family’s needs, add à la carte content for more of what they love, and enjoy their perfect lineup of live TV and apps – all in one place through Optimum Stream, Optimum’s premier video experience.

At Optimum, we remain hyper-focused on putting our customers at the center of everything we do, and we will continue to innovate and evolve our video offerings to ensure we provide the best possible viewing experiences for consumers.”
Evolution of the Optimum Stream Experience
The upcoming launch of Extra TV and Everything TV marks the latest additions to the Optimum Stream experience as the company continues to expand the service’s availability in markets across the country. Through Optimum Stream, customers can enjoy a seamless entertainment experience, which brings together live TV alongside access to thousands of other streaming apps available for download through the Google Play Store, all accessible through a customer-friendly interface and compact, sleek device.
Since introducing the Optimum Stream device, the company has been committed to further improving and enhancing the Stream experience by soliciting customer feedback and implementing solutions to increase stability and performance. This month, Optimum simplified the Stream experience to make it more intuitive for customers. With improved navigation, the new Optimum Stream interface now seamlessly integrates the Optimum TV product, including Live TV that customers know and love, with their favorite streaming apps all in one convenient user experience. This allows easy access to customizable settings, DVR, On Demand and more, and is one of many new solutions that the company plans to bring to customers, with additional Stream features and improvements on the horizon.
Optimum Stream remains available to all Optimum Internet customers across the company’s service areas in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut, and the company is continuing to expand the offering to nearly 1.5 million homes across markets in its West footprint this year, including Arkansas, Arizona, California, Louisiana, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Texas, and West Virginia.
