How to Stream Cartoon Network Live Without Cable

Out of Sling TV's two base plans, Sling Blue is the one with Cartoon Network. That's because, instead of streaming Disney-owned channels, Blue has more entertainment channels for you to enjoy. Blue also has more local news channels than Orange, though it's because of that that the price varies from state to state. However, even without our discount, Sling Blue is also the cheapest way to watch Cartoon Network.

Craving more cartoons? If you already have Hulu, we don't need to tell you about the many animated films and shows Hulu has in their library. But you don't need to limit yourself to what they have on-demand. You can add 100+ more channels, including Cartoon Network, to watch new cartoons live.

YouTube TV has the widest channel line-up out of all the streaming services listed here, so it's no surprise that Cartoon Network is also included. They also air other channels like Adult Swim, Disney, and Nickelodeon in their base plan, as well as host hundreds of animated shows on-demand like Rick and Morty, Bob's Burgers, and South Park. Want even more content? You can bundle premium add-ons like HBO Max, Crunchyroll, and Cinemax to your existing plan.

You can watch Cartoon Network on DirecTV Stream. Like its cable counterpart, the streamer has a huge selection of channels in high definition, but unlike cable, you can stream up to 20 screens at the same time in your home and 3 screens outside. That means, if you're sharing your plan with the whole family, you don't have to sacrifice TV time to watch what someone else likes. You can simply check out Cartoon Network on another compatible device.

This newcomer to cord-cutting quietly launched in April 2024. It's about 90 channels for $39.99, without any additional fees like a local channels surcharge, because there are simply no local channels. What you won't find either are sports channels. And some of the channels are Spectrum channels like Spectrum Originals and Spectrum News.

With Philo having a similar channel lineup but costing $15 less, you probably need a very good reason to go for Spectrum TV Stream. But, it's always nice to have another option.

Spectrum TV Choice is an internet television service that is available only by call-in and only to Charter Spectrum internet customers. The channels available to you will depend on your location, but usually you can choose 10 more channels to add to your plan. Please be careful that after 30 days, you might not be able to change the list of 10 channels you choose.
