Showtime (the cable channel) will become Paramount+ with Showtime.
Meanwhile, Showtime is also currently a cable network. That network will no longer be Showtime and will instead become Paramount+ with Showtime (the TV channel). On that end, the TV network’s profile will receive a boost by also airing “Paramount+ originals in addition to the SHOWTIME originals, as well as Paramount Pictures movies that come to the services.”
Good News! SHOWTIME is now Paramount+ with Showtime, as of January 8th. Your subscription will include Paramount+ with SHOWTIME East & West channels, 10 SHOWTIME multi-plex channels, TMC and FLIX, Paramount+ with SHOWTIME on demand.
PLUS, you’ll have access to the Paramount+ with SHOWTIME plan on Paramount+ app at no additional charge!
I'd expect nothing to happen with the Showtime channels.
However...If someone pays for the movie pack (which I think is still a thing), U-300, U-400, U-450 AND pays for the commercial-free version of Paramount+, they're paying twice for Showtime...and AT&T most likely won't be able to help.
Example:
I pay for Paramount+ because reasons. If I want the commercial-free version of that app, I get the Showtime content.
If I want to upgrade to U-300 because of channels NOT named Showtime (such as MLB Network, NBA TV or REELZ), then I'd be getting Showtime on my U-Verse TVs.
The trick would be to downgrade to the regular Paramount+. Unfortunately, that would mean I'd see commercials on Paramount+.

HBO is still there where it always has been.

It seems...if you have REGULAR Showtime channels on your TV:
Nothing changes immediately, but keep an eye open.
