8 Best Services to Watch FOX Without Cable

cord-cutting › fox • September 2, 2023 • Staff

Tune in to FOX on Sunday, February 21, to watch the Super Bowl LVII between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles.

Without FOX, there would be no The O.C., no Futurama, American Idol, Malcolm in the Middle, Arrested Development, The X-Files, or The Simpsons. Much of what makes TV what it is today wouldn't be there. 

The good news is that you don't need a hefty cable bill to watch these series and all the new ones that FOX has to offer. You can subscribe to Netflix-style cord-cutting services that allow you to watch the channel live for much less than the price of cable and without any of its hassles. 

One of the most popular cord-cutting services, Sling TV, only offers FOX in some markets. Whether or not FOX is on Sling depends on the ownership of the station in each area. To watch FOX with Sling, the best way is to get an antenna, which integrates well with the app. 

You can watch FOX without cable on DirecTV Stream, Hulu with Live TV, Fubo TV, YouTube TV, Fubo TV Elite, Vidgo, Tubi, or DirecTV Stream Ultimate.

Below, we count down the best ways to watch FOX that cord-cutters use.
