Quick Answer: Watch TNT without cable using select live TV streaming services including DirecTV Stream, Sling, and Hulu + Live TV.
There are a few channels we miss after cutting the cord on cable. TNT is one of them. From F1 racing to basketball games to original series, the channel is a must-have if you’re keeping up with most major sports.
If you’ve recently ditched cable and you’re looking to watch TNT online, read on. Below are a few ways to stream TNT without cable, including live TV streaming services to fit different budgets.
How to Watch TNT Without Cable
Below are four of the best ways to watch TNT without cable, including options at different price points and one with a free trial.
Stream TNT with DirecTV Stream
free trial
DirecTV Stream carries TNT in all of its packages, including its most affordable plan, the Entertainment package. This live TV streaming plan starts with a five-day free trial (you can cancel within that window and avoid paying anything) and costs $79.99 a month after that. Bonus: Right now DirecTV Stream is running a deal that gets you $30 off its base package for the first three months, bringing the price down to just $49.99 a month for three months.
Stream TNT with Sling
great value
A more affordable live TV streaming service with TNT is Sling. You can get the Turner channel in any of Sling’s plans; the cheapest is the Orange or Blue plan which both start at $40 a month.
Stream TNT with Hulu + Live TV
Best streaming bundle

Another way to watch TNT livestreams without cable is Hulu + Live TV. The live TV streaming service is really more of a comprehensive streaming bundle, delivering more than 90 live TV channels and free subscriptions to ESPN+, Disney+, and Hulu (on-demand). All of this costs $76.99 a month.
Stream (Limited) TNT with Max + B/R Sports Add-On
Great for sports
Max (formerly HBO Max) recently announced that subscribers can stream dozens of TNT sports broadcasts with its B/R Sports add-on. You won’t be able to watch live TNT anytime, like you can with the above options, but you’ll be able to catch hundreds of sports games including NBA and hockey games shown on TNT. The B/R Sports add-on costs $9.99 a month, on top of an existing Max subscription, which starts at $9.99 a month.
Can You Watch TNT for Free?
If you’re only looking to watch TNT for a limited time (say, for one big sports game), you can take advantage of the free trials from DirecTV Stream or Hulu + Live TV to watch TNT for free without cable. You will need to enter a payment method to sign up for the free trials, but you won’t be charged anything as long as you cancel before the trial is over.
