Figured out how to watch some of my shows for free

Tweet

My Spectrum TV package is TV stream. This means that I watch TV through the Spectrum app. It costs only $40/month, which is a great deal. It has many of the channels I watch. The downside is that it doesn't have CBS, NBC, FOX, and ABC channels. I thought I would have to subscribe to different streaming channels to be able to watch my shows. So far, I have been able to avoid that. I have been able to watch NBC shows (The Voice, Chicago PD) by downloading the NBC app and accessing it on my Roku. Thankfully, I do not need to login with my TV provider to watch their shows. That is great as logging in with my TV provider wouldn't work anyway as I don't have those channels in my TV package. By not logging in, I unfortunately have to wait a week to watch the latest episodes but at least I can watch them. The CBS app doesn't allow me to watch my shows (NCIS, NCIS: Origins, Tracker) without logging in with my TV provider. It wouldn't work anyway as my TV package doesn't have this channel. Luckily, I can watch these shows on the CBS website on my laptop, which allows me to watch without logging in with my TV provider. I don't remember if I have to wait a week or not. What's important is that I can watch them. I haven't yet tried to watch any FOX or ABC shows so not sure if I can watch them anywhere without having to subscribe to a streaming service. I sure hope it's possible.
