Sling TV is the cheapest live cable TV streaming service in the United States for sports fans willing to work around its quirks. Instead of forcing everyone onto an $82.99/month bundle like YouTube TV, Sling lets you pick between skinny $19.99/month starter packs (Sling Select and Sling Essentials) or its $45.99/month core packages: Sling Orange (ESPN, ESPN2, TNT, and TBS) and Sling Blue (FS1, NFL Network, USA Network, plus local FOX, NBC, and ABC in select big cities). Pairing either plan with the $11/month Sports Extra add-on unlocks SEC Network, ACC Network, Big Ten Network, NFL RedZone, NBA TV, MLB Network, and NHL Network. The trade-offs are that Sling carries zero CBS stations nationwide, limits Sling Orange to a strict 1 simultaneous stream, and charges $4/month extra in markets where local ABC, FOX, and NBC are included.
Sling TV starts at $19.99/month for its skinny Select and Essentials tiers, $45.99/month for Sling Orange or Sling Blue, and $60.99/month for the combined Sling Orange + Blue plan.
Owned by EchoStar Corporation (parent of DISH Network), Sling TV is a modular live TV streaming service built for cord-cutters who want national cable sports without paying for a 100-channel bundle. Subscribers can choose between budget $19.99/month skinny plans, the ESPN-led Sling Orange tier ($45.99/month), the FOX/NBC-led Sling Blue tier ($45.99/month), or the combined Sling Orange + Blue package ($60.99/month). Sling also integrates directly with over-the-air antennas via AirTV hardware to merge free local broadcast channels into its on-screen TV guide.

Sling Orange ($45.99/month) is built around Disney/ESPN channels: it includes ESPN, ESPN2, ESPN3, TNT, and TBS, but is strictly limited to 1 stream at a time and carries no local broadcast stations. Sling Blue ($45.99/month, or $49.99/month in select local markets) drops ESPN in favor of FS1, NFL Network, USA Network, TNT, TBS, and truTV, includes local FOX, NBC, and ABC in select cities, and allows 3 simultaneous streams.
The Sports Extra add-on costs $11/month for Sling Orange or Sling Blue, or $15/month when combined on Sling Orange + Blue. On Sling Orange, Sports Extra adds SEC Network, ACC Network, ESPNU, ESPNews, NBA TV, MLB Network, and Tennis Channel. On Sling Blue, Sports Extra adds NFL RedZone, Big Ten Network, FS2, NHL Network, Golf Channel, MLB Network, NBA TV, and beIN SPORTS.
Sling TV does NOT carry local CBS stations anywhere in the United States. Local FOX, NBC, and ABC stations are included on Sling Blue (and Orange + Blue) in roughly 20 major metro markets (such as New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, Dallas, Houston, San Francisco, and Atlanta), where Sling adds a $4/month local broadcast adjustment. In all other markets, Sling recommends pairing its app with an indoor HD antenna.
Stream limits depend on your plan: Sling Orange and Sling Essentials allow only 1 stream at a time. Sling Blue and Sling Select allow 3 simultaneous streams. If you subscribe to Sling Orange + Blue ($60.99/mo), you can watch up to 4 streams at once (3 streams on Sling Blue channels + 1 stream on a Sling Orange/ESPN channel).
No. Like YouTube TV, Sling TV does not carry Regional Sports Networks (RSNs), which is how it keeps its monthly price at $45.99/month without charging $15/month in mandatory regional sports fees. To watch local in-market MLB, NBA, or NHL games, you will need a standalone RSN app, Fubo, or DIRECTV Stream.
