Streaming truTV without a cable TV subscription is pretty easy.
It’s just a matter of choosing which live TV streaming service is the right fit. March Madness 2022 is a huge draw for the network.
My top pick for watching truTV without cable is Sling TV because it’s the cheapest option at $35 per month. You can check the latest offer Sling TV is making to new and returning customers.
Watch TruTV on a Roku, Fire TV or Apple TV
Streaming services will let you watch truTV live along with a number of other live TV channels. You just need an Internet connection, and a Smart TV. If your Smart TV doesn’t have an app for the streaming service you want to use, rest easy.
A Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV or Google Chromecast with Google TV also support these live TV streaming services.

Why haven’t you reviewed Philo TV? 60 channels for $25.00! Seems better to me than sling, hulu, and others.
Philo is a good deal if you don’t need sports channels or locals. Been a Philo subscriber since 2017. This is the most updated article on Philo.
