And now, the bundle of roughly 50 cable channels is officially available in Washington, D.C., Houston, Atlanta, Phoenix, Detroit, Minneapolis-St. Paul, Miami-Ft. Lauderdale, Orlando-Daytona Beach-Melbourne, Charlotte, and Dallas-Fort Worth.
The expansion will serve “millions more people,” according to a release, and marks the first time that nine of the above markets (excluding Dallas-Fort Worth) will have access to a digital TV service featuring live local feeds of the four major broadcast networks, including ABC, CBS, FOX, and NBC.

At launch, YouTube TV featured ESPN, FX, USA, the Disney Channel, Bravo, MSNBC, Fox News, and more.YouTube says that more than half of YouTube TV viewers are aged 18 to 34.
