Three of our favorite online TV streaming services
We all love Netflix, but there are a lot of streaming services out there that will help satisfy your need for movies or live TV. These are some of our favorites.
We’ve all been watching tons of movies and television lately. Shout out to Netflix for auto-playing, but sometimes you don’t want to wait for shows to show up on a streaming conglomerate.
There are a lot of other streaming services out there, and each brings something unique to the table.
Here are three of our favorites – including two that offer live television.
Amazon Prime Video
There’s some great stuff on Amazon Prime Video, including but not limited to, The Tick, Fleabag, Sneaky Pete, Undone and Upload.
If you’re already an Amazon Prime member (and who isn’t these days?), then thousands of titles are available at no extra charge. But for a full experience you’ll want to splurge for the extra $12.99 per month to get everything.

Bonus:
Disney+ Bundle (feat. ESPN+ and Hulu)
The Disney+ Bundle is one of the better deals on the market. To get Disney+ as a standalone, you’re paying $6.99 per month. To bundle Disney+ with ESPN+ and Hulu, it’s just $12.99 per month.
ESPN+ is perfect for sports fans. The acclaimed documentary series 30 For 30 is available on there, along with a fair amount of live content. In particular, if you’re a fantasy sports or UFC fan, you’ll find a ton of content at your finger tips.
Also, the Kobe Bryant and Peyton Manning versions of Detail are available, and it’s really fascinating to listen to two of the best to ever do it break down their respective sports.
The version of Hulu you get in the default bundle comes with ads. However, you can adjust the plan to feature live TV or go ad-free for an additional cost.
What’s available on Hulu? Some of our favorites include Rick and Morty, Family Guy, Scrubs, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Fargo, It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia, How I Met Your Mother, Archer, Futurama and Seinfeld ** takes deep breath** and Justified, Archer, Prison Break, 24 and White Collar.
Then of course Disney+. You already know what Disney+ has going on. Classic films and shows, modern hits, and everything in-between. For real, where else can you go from binge-watching the 1990’s X-Men cartoon (with the amazing theme song), then flip over to watch Horse Sense?
