ALL NBC Affiliates Would Be Affected If YouTube TV Loses NBCU Channels

BREAKING: YouTube TV and NBCUniversal reached a temporary agreement to continue service while negotiations continue.

As YouTube TV and NBCUniversal hurtle toward an impasse, there’s some question whether all NBC affiliates would disappear or just the O&O stations. A spokesperson for NBCUniversal confirmed to The Streamable that all NBC affiliates would disappear from YouTube TV.

These are the stations that would disappear if the problem cannot be resolved by tomorrow (September 30).

The channels affected also include Bravo, CNBC, E!, Golf Channel, MSNBC, NBC Sports Network, Oxygen, Syfy, Telemundo, Universal Kids, Universo, and USA Network.

Customers would also lose their local NBC Sports RSN like NBC Sports Bay Area, NBC Sports California, NBC Sports Chicago, NBC Sports Philadelphia, and NBC Sports Washington. If the RSNs were to be dropped, YouTube TV would no longer offer Regional Sports Networks in any market, after dropping Bally Sports RSNs last year.

Peacock is not a perfect replacement for these NBC channels, but it can at least provide access to a majority of prime time programming. Viewers will most likely be hurt by the loss of live coverage on channels like CNBC or MSNBC.
