So, is there a way to watch the SAG Awards online? But of course! This year, film and television buffs can watch the SAG Awards online through a number of streaming services. Your best option is to use a live TV streaming option to watch the awards ceremony online as it airs live. We’ve chosen the best packages below, each of which offers TNT or TBS to watch the SAG Awards online. What’s more, most of the sites below provide reasonable free trial periods, offering you an option to watch the SAG Awards for free. Find out more about that below!

Watch SAG Awards 2022 on Sling

Sling is one of the best ways to watch the SAG Awards online this year. The streamer currently offers two plans: Sling Blue and Sling Orange. Both cost $35 per month and provide TNT to watch the SAG Awards online as coverage airs live. If you had to choose one, though, we recommend Sling Blue to watch the SAG Awards online. Not only does the plan include more channels, but it also allows users to stream on three devices, whereas Sling Orange only allows one. This means that you can split the cost of Sling Blue with two other people, allowing three households to watch the SAG Awards online for just over $10 each.

Watch SAG Awards 2022 on FuboTV

FuboTV also offers users a way to watch the SAG Awards online. A FuboTV monthly membership costs $64.99, which runs you much less than typical cable bundles. The streamer includes TNT to watch the SAG Awards online. FuboTV is also a favorite when it comes to other primetime events, as it offers NHL Network, MLB Network and Golf Channel, among others. Aside from sports, a FuboTV subscription gives you access to over 100 more channels—including AMC, Bravo, E! and Showtime—along with at least 250 hours of DVR and a streaming library with hundreds of TV shows and movies. And just to sweeten the deal, FuboTV even allows up to three screens to stream at once so that family and friends can join you as you watch the SAG Awards online.

Watch SAG Awards 2022 on Hulu+ With Live TV

If you’re looking for a complete package to rival typical cable bundles and watch the SAG Awards online, we highly recommend Hulu+ With Live TV. The service, which costs $69.99 per month, offers more than 75 live channels, 50 hours of DVR and hundreds of hours of TV shows and movies not available on Hulu’s base plan—including TNT, of course, to watch the SAG Awards 2022 as airs live. Hulu+ With Live TV also comes with Disney+ and ESPN+ at no extra cost to subscribers, allowing users to stream major releases throughout the year. This saves users around $14.99 per month than if they paid for those services separately.
