- Tubi TV: Tubi has everything from quirky, artsy films to classic movies that made history and popular TV shows. The design is reminiscent of Netflix: Just select your favorite genre and you’ll see Tubi’s library of options. Although it’s ad-supported, the commercials aren’t overwhelming.

- Roku: If you have a Roku, you can access The Roku Channel, which gets you free movie and TV content. Stream live shows on the Roku channel and watch an ever-changing catalog of movies and TV shows, all at no cost.
- YouTube: YouTube has thousands of TV episodes to watch for free. But as with most content on the platform, you’ll have to sit through some advertising for the privilege to view it. Here’s what you need to know.
