Why we recommend Philo to stream ‘Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches’ Season 2

The second season of “Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches” will air its new episodes on AMC, and if you want to stream the channel live as new episodes are released, you will need to have a subscription to a live TV streaming service. Fortunately for cord-cutters four of the major live TV streamers carry AMC, so you will have options.

DIRECTV STREAM, Philo, and YouTube TV all offer free trials of varying lengths. However, except in a few rare circumstances, Philo’s seven-day free trial is going to be your best option. But even on the off chance that you can nail down a longer free trial, it still won’t be enough to watch the entire season of “Mayfair Witches.” So, the fact that Philo is by far the cheapest option to stream MTV helps tremendously.

At just $28 per month, Philo is 66% cheaper than almost all of the other streaming options that will give you access to AMC and the full season of “Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches.” So, while Philo doesn’t carry all of the other major cable channels — or any of the local and national broadcast networks — when it comes to catching all of the new supernatural drama, there’s no better option.
