USA Network live streaming options

If you only need USA for a few days, we recommend the 5-day free trial of DIRECTV. The service includes an unlimited DVR, 20 simultaneous streams, and a huge channel lineup. USA is among 31 of the top 35 cable channels channels offered by this service. If you max out your options, you can get as many as 297 channels.

We like DIRECTV for its great picture and unbeatable lineup of regional sports networks. Once you try it, you’ll probably be happy to make it your live TV provider.

Another top option is Hulu Live TV. You can try it free for 3 days. In addition to 32 of the top 35 cable channels, you’ll also get the great on-demand libraries of Hulu, Disney+, and the live sports of ESPN+. That’s a fantastic value for 3 free days.

Thanks to those free services, this is the best overall entertainment value available right now.

If you want to save money over the long haul, we recommend Sling TV. This ultra-flexible live streamer offers many channel packages, but you can get USA with the Sling Blue package or the Orange+Blue combo. While there is no free trial, Sling frequently offers deep discounts on your first month. No other live-streaming service offers more ways to save money.

Is the USA Network on Fubo?

As of November 21, 2025, Fubo does not currently carry USA Network due to an ongoing carriage dispute.



Can you watch USA Network without a live TV streamer or cable package?

While you can’t watch all of USA without a live TV streamer or cable package, you can watch most of the channel’s programming with Peacock. Shows like “Chicago P.D.,” “Chicago Fire,” “Temptation Island,” “Chrisley Knows Best,” “Growing Up Chrisley,” “The Big D,” and “Race to Survive: Alaska” are all available with a Peacock subscription.

If you choose the ad-free Peacock Premium Plus plan (say that ten times fast!), you can also watch your live, local NBC station.
