Tired of politics and economics? Of newscasts and their constant bombardment? Your escape is Pluto.TV with its live TV channels, free and direct in your browser. This fabulous service keeps gaining users and signals, but if you're a first-time visitor, you might feel a bit lost. Don't worry! Below we're going to share a Pluto TV channel guide, highlighting some of its best broadcasts.
The streaming era
You know how it goes: those who aren't talking numbers focus on the latest crisis of the party in question, with a parade of public health gurus in the middle, who are for or against everything. Traditional TV doesn't give you a break... and that means streaming keeps advancing. Disney+ grows on pure Marvel, Netflix gains millions of users (even if Wall Street says it's not enough), Amazon wants to buy MGM, AT&T and Discovery are looking to join forces... we're more and more convinced: The future of TV is the Internet.
But there are also excellent free options, and at the top of the list is Pluto.TV. Previously we've explained how to configure Kodi to watch Pluto TV for free, so you can add its channels to your Smart TV in minutes. However, with dozens of options in its lineup (the exact number depends on the region), it's easy to get lost. Our first recommendation is to visit Channel 1 and explore for a few minutes, but if you want to jump into action quickly, here's a Pluto TV channel guide with its best signals:
Pluto TV channel guide: our selection
Estrellas de Acción (57-latam)
The Action Stars channel reminds us of classic events like "super-action Saturdays" (or similar) on local TV. If you want to find a Van Damme movie at five in the morning, start here.
Cine Estelar (100-esp, 52-latam)
The profile of the Cine Estelar channel is similar to Action Stars, except it doesn't focus so much on a specific actor. For example, at the time of writing, we went from Bruce Willis to Gerard Butler.
Cine Terror (72-latam)
If I didn't mention Pluto.TV's horror movie offering, Max is going to throw the Lemarchand Box at my head. From The House of the Devil to Ring (original Japanese, not the American mutation), through The Collector and classics like Hellraiser, there's good, bad, and great stuff.
Anime y Anime Acción (182/185-latam)
Its catalog may not be on par with Crunchyroll, but the entire anime section of Pluto.TV keeps improving its aim with high-profile series, including channels dedicated to Naruto (186), One Piece (184), and Yu-Gi-Oh! (183). Anime Acción concentrates series like Death Note, Highschool of the Dead, Ghost Hound, and the adaptation of Devil May Cry.
SciFi (110-esp, 190-latam)
And what about science fiction? If you're thinking 'B-movie', you're in for a treat. The channel is a chaotic mix of mockbusters and adaptations that received harsh reviews, but they're perfect to accompany with a mountain of junk food on a whole Saturday. There's also a lot of Uwe Boll...
Nick Clásico (730-latam)
The entire category dedicated to the little ones is full of material, but if we have to put one channel above the rest, it's probably Nick Clásico, closely followed by the inexhaustible Babar (715) and Barney (709).
MTV Animaciones (171-latam)
Yes, MTV's presence on Pluto.TV is quite solid, but in the case of MTV Animaciones, everything comes down to one word: Daria. It started as a spin-off of Beavis and Butt-Head, ended up marking a whole generation, and this channel offers six or seven episodes at a time.
Series (101-latam)
Its selection seems a bit more limited, but that doesn't make the channel any less interesting. Quite the opposite: Freaks and Geeks has an excellent reputation, and it also airs options further off the radar like Satisfaction (the Australian series).
Cine Suspenso (69-latam)
Your main stop if you're looking for a psychological thriller. Personally, I was surprised to find I Know Who Killed Me (the worst movie of 2007 for many, although Lindsay gave it her all), but its selection doesn't end there.
In summary
Free TV on the Internet is not a myth, and our Pluto TV channel guide is solid proof of it. It may not be enough for those users who are considering cutting the cord for good, but it's a giant step in the right direction, and the service keeps adding new channels in different regions. Give it a try!
