As one of the most watched channels in the nation, ABC provides endless hours of entertainment. With shows like The Bachelor and Abbott Elementary, NBA games, college football, and even Good Morning America you'll want to make sure that ABC is a part of your next streaming service's channel list.
ABC is also a direct partner with ESPN so you'll be able to find events broadcast on both including highly anticipated NBA matchups during the Playoffs. Get ready as the 24'/25' NBA regular season is coming to a close near the middle of April.
With multiple different streaming services offering ABC on their channel lists, it's simple to test out a free trial before signing up. ABC doesn't have the luxury of a direct partner like CBS and Paramount Plus or NBC and Peacock, but it does get shows broadcasted on Hulu roughly 24 hours after a show has been broadcast on the ABC network.
Some of the easiest ways to watch ABC live without cable is through free trials or discounted first months on DIRECTV STREAM, Fubo, Hulu + Live TV, YouTube TV, and Sling TV.
DIRECTV STREAM is a versatile streaming service that provides ABC alongside ESPN, ESPN2, FS1 and many other channels. For more sports offerings, you can upgrade to the Choice, Ultimate or Premier packages, which include RSNs and even more channels. DIRECTV has begun rolling out more personalized plan options that allows users to pay just for what they need. Test out DIRECTV STREAM's free trial for 5-days before committing.
Fubo's packages include hundreds of channels including ABC with an extensive lineup of live sports. The Essential, Pro and Elite plans all include unlimited Cloud DVR and access to watch Fubo on up to 10 screens when at home, plus 3 on the go. Get a discount on your first month after the free trial for up to $40.
Hulu + Live TV is a one stop shop that brings together live TV and Hulu's extensive on-demand content library. Disney Plus and ESPN Plus are bundled into either plan you select, so you can add Disney originals as well as more sports and exclusive content into the mix. Test out the service before signing up with the 3-day Hulu + Live TV free trial.
YouTube TV is a great option for live streaming ABC this year. The base plan offers subscribers access to over 100 live channels that will keep you busy when nothing is happening on ABC. On top of that, you'll never miss the big plays with unlimited DVR space.
Sling TV is a great budget option for people looking to cut the cord. With 50% off your first month's subscription, you can access all of Sling's channels for a fraction of the cost. Sling plans are very customizable and allow for users to only pay for what they need. Unfortunately, Sling TV only provides local channels, such as ABC, in select cities. Before signing up make sure to check your location and ensure you'll be able to watch ABC.
You can watch ABC for free with one of the many free trials available on DIRECTV STREAM, Fubo, Hulu + Live TV, or YouTube TV. Trial periods range from 3-7 days to test out the service before committing to a plan.
Amazon Prime Video offers TV shows and movies from ABC that are either included in your subscription or require rental/purchase.
You cannot watch ABC Network shows on Paramount Plus. Paramount Plus exclusively airs CBS Network shows and programming.
Once you are on the ABC homepage, you can sign in with your verified streaming service login to gain full access to the ABC library of shows and movies. You will be able to stream right from your web browser.
