TV Land is a must-have channel for fans of TV past and present. It blends classic TV shows with newer offerings, giving you all of the best of decades' worth of TV. But there's one thing that's been pretty awful about TV for a while now: cable bills. The big cable companies have had a monopoly for so long that they feel entitled to jack up the price of your pay TV subscription whenever they feel like it, and that's not fair. Here's the good news: when it comes to giving you only the good parts of TV, TV Land really delivers. See, you don't actually need a “legacy pay TV service” like cable or satellite to watch TV Land, and we're about to show you how to watch TV Land without cable.
Here are a few of our favorite ways to stream TV Land:Below, you'll find a complete list of the services that we trust to help you watch TV Land without cable right now. They all have one thing in common: they're all live TV streaming services, also called “skinny bundles.”
A live TV streaming service, happily enough, is exactly what it sounds like! The result is a selection of live TV streaming services that offer multiple network channels, just like cable. And since these services stream over the internet, you can use them to watch live TV on all sorts of different devices, from smartphones to streaming sticks (which will let you watch TV Land without cable on your big screen).
Not every live TV streaming service offers a TV Land livestream, but some of our favorites do. Let's go over your best options:
We’re a long way away from the days when every show aired in black and white. You’ll find some of those shows still airing on TV Land, of course, but nowadays, color TV is the standard, although some shows and movies still go colorless for artistic reasons. The point is, the way we watch TV has evolved tremendously, especially over the last decade or so. You can watch TV Land on your television set at home, but you can also watch it on tons of other devices such as Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, Android TV, Chromecast, iOS, Android, and your web browser.
TV Land is the place to be when you’re craving a nostalgia fix. It’s a bit like “WandaVision,” minus the Marvel connection and/or emotional devastation. But seriously, “WandaVision’s” first (and likely only) season is both a tribute to classic TV sitcoms and an important chapter in the Marvel universe. It’s a good show if you’re a fan of both watching TV Land and watching superpowered people in snazzy costumes. Disney Plus has a lot more Marvel content coming, including shows like “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier” and “Loki.” If you haven’t checked out Disney Plus yet, head to our Disney Plus hub to get started.
All these streaming services are just like cable companies… there is NO DIFFERENCE. They offer a small package/bundle which never includes all the channels or shows you watch. Then lets say you want to add 5 other channels. They have packages/bundles that include them, but they are usually not in the same bundle so you end up having to add 3, 4 or 5 additional bundles/packages so then you are spending the same or more than cable. Then if you want DVR for live channels you have to buy DVR cloud service for an additional price. No matter what you do it is a rip off. They are ALL the same.
Matt Shulman says: August 13, 2018 at 3:27 pmTerra, there is one major difference. With a cable company, you often need to rent a cable box. Plus there are other fees on top of it. With streaming, you get more options. YouTube TV for example is $40/month with unlimited DVR. No single streaming option will have every single channel, so if you really want to save, the key is to eliminate what you don’t have to have.
Mike says: December 31, 2019 at 4:32 pmIts $50 a month now. They keep raising prices, making it as bad as cable with less channels.
No Paramount TV or TV land, Comedy Central, Nick…Sad.
These are in most base cable packages
Even if what you said was totally accurate, which it’s not, I would rather pay upwards of 80.00-100.00 a month less for a streaming service over cable
Mike says: December 31, 2019 at 4:34 pmWell, you like wasting money then, as you can get many more, and more complete selection of channels from cable for that much
Donna Rinaldi says: February 6, 2020 at 5:04 pmI agree with Jerry…I am paying much less and it really depends on what you consider “more”. I received many more channels from cable but watched very few. I have more quality program from how I am obtaining my services for much less…I am saving over 13.00 per month.
Donna Rinaldi says: February 6, 2020 at 5:04 pm That should say 130.00 per month, not 13.00… Jim says: August 31, 2018 at 5:49 pmThe one primary difference I see is not having to commit to a year or two. You make a one-time purchase for a streaming device. I agree with Terra, these skinny bundles are fine, but there is always something missing. While many have TCM, INSP is pretty hard to find. It seems really crazy to pay for the UP channel as an add-on, all by itself. I am stuck with cable until cord cutting makes better sense. Funny, TV Land is not in HD on my cable. Do they have an HD option?
Liz says: August 15, 2020 at 11:37 pm Check out Philo. All channels you want except the TCM, TBS group. And Frndly is even cheaper Anonymous says: March 6, 2021 at 3:00 am you can get tbs and tnt free with an app tv tap pro Fran says: October 29, 2018 at 5:28 pmI have sling tv. I am suppose to get over 70 channels. Just now looked and am only get 25. So I am paying a dollar a channel. Guess it’s time to cancel sling. Cost way to much to start it up. Paid 2 months in advance. Had to change my email address. So they used my old and new email. So I was charged twice. Even told them. Sorry no refunds. Glad I caught it. 55 dollars a month is a little to much. Good bye sling.
Mike says: December 31, 2019 at 4:36 pmSling is junk, duplicate channels if you get both blue & orange bundles.
Addons are crazy expensive.
Totally Out For Me
I have a Roku and want TV Land on Roku, but you only mention SLING, and PHILO. Which both charge. Respond back asap.
linda duttlinger says: January 17, 2020 at 6:45 pm How do I find it on Roku? I can’t locate it Anonymous says: May 18, 2020 at 9:10 pm tvland is comming to youtube tv this summer Stuck in the 70s says: June 23, 2020 at 5:14 am Hallelujah! 😁 Yvonne Dennis says: November 6, 2020 at 4:46 amThank you honey haha for putting TV Land on YouTube. I love TV Land. Made great original sitcoms. When my kids were young it was the only Channel we watched back in the 90s.
Anne P says: June 5, 2020 at 1:52 pm If it were on Hulu Live I would be a happy camper! Anonymous says: February 26, 2021 at 1:33 pmHulu charges money but provides no service. I spent hours with their “helpers” all for no service— they are good at charging for nothing
