Showtime Anytime and Starz are now officially supported on the Chromecast, Google announced today. This is definitely good news for fans of Homeland, The Affair, Outlander and other shows exclusive to those premium networks.

The $35 HDMI dongle, which debuted in 2013, also supports HBO Go, Vimeo, Redbox Instant, Netflix, YouTube and Hulu Plus.

Google's announcement also touted a few new "party" games adding support for Chromecast. They include Wheel of Fortune, Just Dance Now, Emoji Party, Big Web Quiz, Simon Swipe, Connect Four Quads and Hasbro's Monopoly Dash. All are said to facilitate family fun on the TV screen. It's worth noting that Chromecast already has more than 50 game titles on its official support page, which now features category tabs!
