TV Answer Man, I read your article on DIRECTV still carrying adult channels after all these years. Do you know what the monthly rate is for Playboy? — Clyde, San Angelo, Texas.
Clyde, it may be 2023 but DIRECTV still offers adult channels with its satellite lineup. (Not available on DIRECTV Stream.) The channels include Playboy TV, Penthouse TV, Brazzers TV, Hustler TV, Vivid TV, Reality Kings, and one channel whose title perhaps is best left unsaid. You can see the entire list here. DIRECTV says on its ‘adult entertainment’ page that you can subscribe individually to each channel so what about Playboy TV, you ask?
How Much Is Playboy TV On DIRECTV?
The satcaster now is providing Playboy TV, which also includes Playboy 2, Playboy TV en Español, and Playboy TV On Demand, for free for three months. (Only available to new Playboy TV customers.) The subscription renews after three months for $15.99 a month unless you cancel prior to the end of the promotion. If you are interested, you can subscribe to Playboy TV at channel 575.
The Playboy TV lineup includes movies and such shows as Secret Sessions, Bare Bliss, Pleasure Parlour, Lights, Camera, Play, and Revenge, Part One.
Last note: DIRECTV allows you to set parental controls on the Playboy channel, and any other adult-oriented service, in Settings, which can be found in your on-screen menu.
Clyde, hope that helps. Happy viewing and stay safe!
