Optimum (Suddenlink) just increased monthly payment $40. Looking for an affordable streaming app that gets network TV

One of my happiest days was when my boys were born and I got to call suddenlink and tell them to cancel my service!!

Pretty much all of them. Sign for a trial of each and then pick which you like the best. We like YouTubeTV

Paramount Plus gets the local ones on live TV. I think there are 2 levels though (cheaper version might just say Paramount). Don't opt for the cheaper version or you won't have the local channels.

I thought Paramount just had the CBS channels. It doesn't have NBC, ABC or Fox does it? Am I misreading your post?
A fearful society is a compliant society. That's why Democrats and criminals prefer their victims to be unarmed. Gun Control is not about guns, it's about control.

2nd YouTubeTV.

Optimum is up to its old Suddenlink tricks.. Raise the price and wait for customers to threaten to leave and then give you a "special" deal for another 6 months.

I've been happy with Fubo for a couple of years now. Biggest downside is no TNT, TBS or TRU so spotty March Madness coverage. (Luckily Max started carrying MM games so was able to watch that way.)

We've tried Hulu Live and Fubo so far. We like them both, and going to try out YouTube TV after baseball season.

No broadcast networks - like OP asked. We tried Philo and didn't care for it. It is cheap, tho.

Paramount Plus has CBS (which is what local station KBTX is).

You're right that it doesn't include NBC, ABC, or Fox.

NBC is on the Peacock app. I think their shows stream the next day.

ABC and Fox are on Hulu, next day with commercials.

Youtube TV is great! Not that cheap but is pretty amazing.

I tried Hulu and hate it because you cannot skip commercials. Plus it is owned by megacorp disney/espn/hulu/marvel etc etc and I expect them to try and bully all the other services out of business so do not want to support them.

We switch between YTTV and Fubo, depending on which sports season it is.

I tried fubo a couple of years ago and the stream quality was horrible. Has that improved?
