So, is truTV on Peacock? Here is the answer and the cheapest way around it.

How to watch truTV?
There is no way to add truTV to a Peacock subscription. It is not a plan or an add-on question, the channel is simply not licensed to Peacock.
To watch it without cable, Sling TV carries it on its base package at $45.99/month, and Hulu + Live TV runs a 3-day free trial if you only need it for a weekend. Each of those streams the same live feed you would get from cable.
Which Peacock plan includes truTV?
truTV is on none of the Peacock tiers. Premium and Premium Plus both leave it out, and the difference between those two is ads and NBC live access, not extra channels.
Which number is truTV on Peacock?
Peacock does not use channel numbers at all. Its live section is a set of NBCU themed feeds, and truTV is not one of them.
On Sling TV you will find it in the guide like a normal cable channel.
Which other streaming services carry truTV?
truTV is carried by Sling TV, Hulu + Live TV and DIRECTV Stream.
Several of those come with a free trial, so if you need truTV for one weekend, you can get it without paying anything.

About truTV
truTV is owned by Warner Bros. Discovery and is built around comedy formats and, in March, the overflow feed for the NCAA Tournament.
The schedule leans on "Impractical Jokers" and first-round March Madness games.
Its parent company streams its content on its own platforms first, which is why it does not turn up inside a rival service like Peacock.
