PBS and PBS Kids are coming to YouTube TV later this year

Despite its recent price hike to $50/month, YouTube TV is still one of the best streaming TV services out there. Yesterday, YouTube announced that they will be adding two more channels to the existing lineup later this year: PBS and PBS Kids.

PBS features documentary and news shows like NewsHour, Nova, and Finding Your Roots while PBS Kids is best known for its iconic animated series like Sesame Street, Arthur, and Curious George.

The stream will be a feed of your participating local PBS station. Theoretically, this shouldn’t bring a price increase to YouTube TV as PBS cannot charge a retransmission fee by law. In other words, PBS stations are non-commercial.
