Hulu + Live TV channels

Hulu + Live TV features a lineup of live entertainment, sports, news, and kids’ channels that competes easily with a cable or satellite TV package—with a few exceptions. Popular channels like AMC, NBA TV, and IFC aren’t on Hulu + Live TV, and premium channel MGM+ isn’t available as an add-on.

Sports channels on Hulu Live

You’ve probably seen those ever-present “Hulu has live sports!” commercials, and Hulu + Live TV mostly lives up to the hype. With 13 major sports channels, including a suite of ESPN channels and both FS1 and FS2 from FOX, it’s as sports loaded as a basic cable package.

But, Hulu + Live TV is missing sport-specific channels like NBA TV, MLB Network, FOX Soccer Plus, and NHL Network. Also, while Hulu + Live TV carries NBC RSNs (regional sports networks), it recently dropped FOX RSNs, along with YES Network and Marquee Sports Network.

Local channels on Hulu Live

Like most live TV streaming services, local channel lineups vary by region with Hulu + Live TV. But, even if you can’t get area ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, or Telemundo stations, most shows are available on-demand the next day. Also, Hulu + Live TV carries no PBS stations.

Hulu Live premium and channel add-ons

Max (formerly HBO Max), Paramount+ with SHOWTIME, CINEMAX, and STARZ are available as premium add-ons to Hulu + Live TV. MGM+ isn’t on the premium menu here, making Hulu + Live TV the only live TV streaming service that doesn’t carry it.

Hulu + Live TV also offers two multi-channel add-ons:
