Audiences across the United States are almost certainly about to be caught in the middle of a new carriage dispute. This latest disagreement between channel owners and distributors is pitting Fox against YouTube TV, and if it isn’t resolved before Wednesday, Aug. 27, it could cause Fox-owned channels to be pulled from YouTube TV.

If that happens ahead of the weekend’s college football slate and other big programming events, The Streamable has you covered. There are plenty of other ways to watch Fox channels without a cable subscription, and we’ll describe them in detail below.

The $45.99/month Sling Orange plan offers about 30 channels, including Disney Channel and ESPN. The $45.99/month Sling Blue plan offers about 40 channels, including ABC, Fox, and NBC in major markets.

You can combine Orange+Blue for a total of $60.99 / month. Sling also offers many channel add-on packages starting at $6/month.

Hulu + Live TV

Hulu + Live TV offers Fox in a huge number of markets, as well as Fox News, Fox Business, FS1, and FS2 in its base channel package. This plan costs $83 per month if you want to bundle it with ad-supported Disney+ and Hulu, as well as the ESPN Select plan. It even comes with a three-day free trial for all new customers.

Hulu Live TV

Hulu Live TV is a live TV streaming service with more than 70 channels for $89.99 per month. Hulu + Live TV base plan includes local channels 32 of the top 35 cable channels, and regional sports networks (RSNs). Subscribers get free access to Disney+ and ESPN Select at no extra charge.

…

Where it really separates itself is value. Your subscription doesn’t just cover live TV — it also includes full access to Hulu’s on-demand library, plus bundled subscriptions to Disney+ and ESPN Select content at no extra cost. That means you’re getting everything from next-day network TV episodes and Hulu Originals, to Marvel, Star Wars, and live sports content all in one place without juggling multiple bills.

For sports fans, Hulu + Live TV also includes regional sports networks (RSNs) in select areas, a feature many competing services have dropped. That can be a big deal if you’re trying to follow local MLB, NBA, or NHL teams.

The DVR experience is another strong point. Subscribers get unlimited cloud DVR storage and the ability to fast-forward through commercials on recorded content — a feature that used to cost extra but is now standard. It’s designed to feel closer to a traditional cable DVR, just without the box.

If you want to customize further, several add-ons are available. You can upgrade to premium channels like HBO, Showtime, or Starz, add an unlimited streams option for households with lots of viewers, or go ad-free on Hulu’s on-demand content (live TV will still include ads).

Overall, Hulu + Live TV is less about being the cheapest option and more about being the most comprehensive. It’s built for people who want live TV, on-demand shows, and bundled streaming services all under one roof — without having to piece everything together themselves.

Fubo

Fubo carries Fox channels in packages starting with its base Pro plan, which costs $85 per month — though viewers will almost certainly have to pay up to $17 per month more thanks to regional sports network fees, which are unfortunately not optional for most viewers. Customers who sign up to Fubo get a free trial between one and seven days, depending on what time of month they sign up and other variables.

Fubo

Fubo is a live TV streaming service offering a robust lineup of approximately 150 premier channels, with plans starting at $63.99 per month.

Fox One

Fox One carries access to live programming on all Fox-owned channels. This new direct-to-consumer streaming service is dedicated to nothing but Fox content, so it won’t deliver any other programming.

Antenna

If none of these services sound like a fit for your needs, you can always purchase an over-the-air antenna and watch the Fox broadcast network in your area with it. You won’t receive Fox News, FS1, or any other Fox-owned cable channels by going this route, but if you only want the Fox channel, you can grab an antenna for a one-time purchase price and not have to worry about paying a monthly subscription fee.
