Although Paramount and YouTube TV agreed on a "short term extension" that temporarily paused a blackout of CBS and other Paramount-owned channels on the Google-owned streaming platform, it is unclear how long the agreement will remain in place.

In an eleventh-hour agreement late Thursday night, YouTube TV reached what it called a "short-term extension" with Paramount to keep channels such as CBS, Comedy Central and MTV on its subscription streaming service after access to them was set to go dark following failed negotiations around a contract renewal.

Paramount Global and YouTube TV have agreed to continue negotiations, keeping Paramount's TV networks, including CBS, on the Google platform.
