How to Watch Knuckles Online for Free

If you’re not a Paramount+ subscriber, then you can take advantage of the streaming service’s seven-day free trial to watch Knuckles and other Paramount+ originals, including Halo, Star Trek Discovery, 1883, Lawmen: Bass Reeves and Frasier (2023). You can also watch live sports from the NFL, PGA, NWSL and UEFA Champions League, as well as live news from CBS News. After the free trial is over, you can either keep watching, or cancel altogether.

Meanwhile, Paramount+ has two tiers for streaming plans. The first is the Paramount+ Essential plan, which is ad-supported and goes for $5.99 per month. It grants you access to everything the streamer has to offer, including and catalog titles — from hubs such as CBS, BET, Comedy Central, MTV, Nickelodeon and The Smithsonian Channel — but with limited commercial breaks throughout movies, TV shows and live TV.

The other is Paramount+ with Showtime, which is ad-free and goes for $11.99 per month. This plan has all of Paramount+ originals and network hubs, as well as programming from Showtime with hits including Yellowjackets, Billions, The Curse, The Chi and Your Honor without any ad breaks.
