DIRECTV Bulks Up $34.99 MyEntertainment Package with Hallmark and AMC Channels

If you’re looking for a cheap live TV lineup that packs a punch, DIRECTV just boosted the value of its MyEntertainment bundle. Starting today, subscribers to the $34.99 package can also access Hallmark Channel, AMC, BBC America, IFC, SundanceTV, and WE TV. New subscribers can get the first two months for $24.99 after a 5-day free trial.

The value will get even better in 2026, since AMC+ (with ads) will join the MyEntertainment Genre Pack and select DIRECTV Signature Packages. The horror, thriller, and suspense service Shudder is expected to be added to the MyCinema mini-pack add-on at no additional cost.

DIRECTV is our top choice for streaming live TV in 2025 because it offers more channel packages at more price points than any other provider. The picture quality and navigation are top-notch and its features meet or exceed its competitors.

What’s Included in DIRECTV’s MyEntertainment Bundle?

MyEntertainment gives you free Disney+, Hulu, and HBO Max (all ad-supported), along with many important live TV channels.

Even More Hallmark in MyCinema

If you love Hallmark’s movies and shows, you may also choose to add DIRECTV’s add-on MyCinema pack ($9.99/month) because it will now include the popular Hallmark Mystery and Hallmark Family channels. MyCinema can be added to any of DIRECTV’s inexpensive genre packs: MyEntertainment, MyNews, MySports, or MyKids.
