Ah, NBC. Home of Law & Order and its hundreds of spin-offs, Saturday Night Live, The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Inside, and Dateline. Sadly, it doesn’t have the same strong sitcom lineup it once had (anyone else stayed up for the 30 Rock, The Office, and Parks and Recreation combo before?). But they still have the news of course, both national and local, and live sports like Sunday Night Football and, occasionally, the Olympics.
The good news is you don’t need a TV to tune into all that. In fact, you don’t even need to pay—immediately, at least.
To watch NBC for free, you can sign up for a free trial offered by one of the live TV streaming services below. The trials generally last a week or so, after which, the service starts to charge you monthly for the regular price. So as long as you remember to cancel on time, you should be able to enjoy NBC’s stacked content without spending a dime.
Hulu with Live TV
Combining the best of streaming and cable, Hulu with Live TV pairs Hulu’s original programming like Only Murders in the Building, imports like Normal People, and licensed ABC shows like Modern Family with live TV channels like CNN, CBS, and TCM to give you an all-in-one TV package. The plans start at $77/month (with ads), but for an additional fee, you can upgrade to a bundle that removes commercials and throws in Disney+ and ESPN+ to the mix.
