TV Answer Man, does Xfinity Comcast still have free channels every week? I haven’t seen any articles on free channels lately from you. — Gina, Boston.
Gina, Comcast last year began offering free channels and streaming services every week. The freebies have continued this year, but I haven’t written about them because the selection has been lackluster, to say the least. But this week is different. Comcast’s Xfinity video service is offering all video subscribers free access to the Starz On-Demand catalog.

Which Starz Titles Will Be Free?
The free Starz titles include BMF; Power Book II: Ghost; The Serpent Queen; Outlander; Power Book III: Raising Kanan; Jurassic World: Dominion; The Devil You Know; Retribution; Casino; Home Alone; and Power, among many others.
How Much Does Starz Normally Cost On Xfinity?
Starz is available on Xfinity for $9.99 a month.
How to Watch the Starz For Free On Xfinity
To access the free Starz titles, subscribers must go to Comcast’s On Demand menu on their Flex or X1 set-tops. (They are also available on the Xfinity Stream app and the Xumo XClass TV.) You can access that by saying ‘Free This Week’ into your voice remote or clicking on the Menu button on your remote to see a list of Menu options.
Gina, hope that helps. Happy viewing and stay safe!
