In SEAL Team, the Navy’s most elite unit reunites for one last mission in the series finale and the stakes couldn’t be higher. With new English Football League and Serie A deals, CBS Sports brings even more thrills and drills to Paramount+. And to balance all that team spirit with cutthroat competition, renowned drag queens from 12 countries contend for the crown in RuPaul’s Drag Race Global All Stars. For a closer look at everything coming to Paramount+ in August, check out the latest edition of View from the Peak.

BEHIND THE STREAMS

Cowabunga! Next month, Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael and Michelangelo continue their pizza-fueled antics when Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles premieres. The reimagined animated series—which picks up the foursome’s story after last year’s box-office hit Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem—will delight fans of all ages. The 2023 film’s main voice cast returns, along with mutants voiced by Post Malone, Rose Byrne and Natasia Demetriou, while the series introduces a fresh batch of guest stars including Pete Davidson, Alanna Ubach, Jillian Bell, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Timothy Olyphant and Danny Trejo. “For everyone who loved Mutant Mayhem, it’s going to be all the action, all the comedy and all the pizza you’ve come to expect and more,” executive producer Chris Yost said. “We get to spend a little more time with the individual turtles, getting to know Leo, Raph, Mikey and Donnie on their own without their brothers by their side as they deal with normal teenage stuff.” Grab a slice of pizza when Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles premieres on August 9.

David Boreanaz, A.J. Buckley and Raffi Barsoumian in SEAL Team Over seven seasons we’ve come to know and love each member of Bravo Team in the Paramount+ Original series SEAL Team. The squad is helmed by Jason Hayes (David Boreanaz) who is fighting to reconcile his military duties with his role as a single father. For his final mission, Hayes must lead the team into Columbia where the cast and crew filmed on location earlier this year in collaboration with the Colombia Film Commission.   Fans of the beautiful game have reason to celebrate with more than 650 soccer matches from England and Italy coming to Paramount+ this year. CBS Sports announced a new deal with the English Football League (EFL) and a renewal with Italy’s Serie A to provide coverage of the exciting action exclusively to U.S. fans. CBS Sports’ coverage on Paramount+ will feature at least 250 EFL matches annually, starting August 9, and be the home to all 400 Italian soccer matches each season, beginning August 17.   Since its launch in 2009, RuPaul’s Drag Race has become a worldwide phenomenon, launching 20 international spin-off series and making drag artists celebrities around the planet. This August, RuPaul’s Drag Race Global All Stars will transcend borders as all-star queens from 12 countries compete for the crown. The show kicks off with two episodes on August 16. Meet the Queens in the official ru-veal video.
