How to Watch NBC Channels Online Without Fubo: Stream on These 3 Alternative Services

If you purchase an independently reviewed product or service through a link on our website, Rolling Stone may receive an affiliate commission. Fubo customers were in for a surprise last week, when the popular OTT streamer announced that customers using its live TV service would no longer have access to NBCUniversal channels. In a statement released Friday, Fubo said that while they have “been engaged in good faith negotiations with NBCU to renew our long-standing content agreement to distribute their networks to consumers,” they unfortunately “believe NBCU has offered terms regarding pricing and packaging that are egregiously above those offered to other distributors. As a result, NBCU networks are no longer available on the Fubo platform as of 5pm ET 11/21/25.” The loss of NBCUniversal channels on Fubo means customers will no longer have access to a live feed of their local NBC affiliate, along with CNBC, MSNBC, Bravo, USA Network, Telemundo and NBC Sports, among others. Fortunately, there are a few other ways to livestream NBC channels online, including ways to watch them online for free. DirecTV is one of our favorite all-around streaming services, and we recently named it to our list of Rolling Stone Essentials 2026. Unfortunately Peacock doesn’t currently offer a free trial on its own, but Amazon Prime members can get a seven-day free trial through the Prime Channels storefront here. All of the above Fubo TV alternatives let you watch NBC-owned stations and all the other channels on your phone, laptop, tablet or smart TV without needing cable.
