Genre Packs From DIRECTV

At DIRECTV, we believe TV should fit the way you watch — not the other way around. That’s why we created Genre Packs: a new way to build your TV experience around the content you care about most. Whether you’re all about live sports, breaking news, family favorites, trending entertainment or Spanish-language programming, our genre packs make it easier to get the channels and streaming options you want without paying for a lineup full of filler.  Genre Packs are an industry-first, customizable approach to TV, with curated base packs and optional mini-packs designed to give viewers more flexibility and more control. Pricing starts at $19.99 per month with no annual contract.

This Genre Packs hub brings together news, explainers, and recommendations to help you explore our growing lineup, including MySports, MyEntertainment, MyKids, MyNews, MiEspañol, and add-on options like MyCinema, MyHome Team, and MySports Extra. Across Insider and product pages, we position these packs around real viewing habits — from the hardcore fan and the informed insider to the cultural connector and the wholesome joy seeker. That means this hub is built to help readers compare pack types, discover included streaming perks, follow lineup updates, and find the genre-based TV package that best matches how they actually watch.

Whether you’re looking for a sports TV package, a more focused entertainment streaming bundle, the best kids TV channels for less, a news-first lineup, or a Spanish TV package that keeps you connected to the shows and culture you love, this hub is your place to explore Genre Packs from DIRECTV.
