Other Ways to Live Stream the Screen Actors Guild Awards In addition to the official sites for TNT and TBS, which are only available to cable subscribers, cord cutters can watch live feeds of both of these channels through a number of streaming services. In addition to local channels, these streaming services offer a number of basic cable channels like TNT and TBS. Most of these services provide a free trial of some sort, so you should be able to sign up and stream the SAG Awards for free before you decide whether or not to stick with the service. The key is to choose one that has either TNT or TBS. AT&T TV NOW AT&T TV Now was previously known as DirecTV Now, and it has all of the same channels. TBS and TNT are included with every package, so pick the one you want and check it out. HULU+ LIVE TV Hulu + Live TV combines the massively popular Hulu on demand streaming service with live streaming television. TBS and TNT are both included, so this is another viable option to stream the SAG Awards. They also offer a 30-day free trial. YOUTUBE TV YouTube TV is Google's live television streaming service that also includes original content. TBS and TNT are both included. They offer a free trial as well. SLING TV Sling TV is a lower cost option that includes both TNT and TBS with both of their low cost subscription options. They don't have a lot of local channels, but that doesn't matter if you're just looking to stream the SAG Awards. A free trial is available, so check it out. If the Official SAG Awards Live Stream Isn't Available If the TBS and TNT channels aren't available where you live, and you're geographically locked out of using the TNT or TBS sites or apps, then you're out of luck as far as official SAG Awards streams are concerned. If that's the case, then you will have to look at less official options in order to stream the awards. The problem with unofficial streams is they're usually low quality, less reliable, and can be difficult to find. Options like Ace Stream let you stream potentially high quality video from other viewers, and a variety of sites provide unofficial streams you can watch without downloading anything, but you have to be careful. If you want to use this method, you will have to wait until the say of the SAG Awards, then search the internet for SAG Awards Ace Stream content IDs or other unofficial SAG Awards streams. When searching for SAG Awards Ace Stream content IDs and other unofficial SAG Awards streams, be careful. Install a good ad blocker and antivirus first, and be wary of fake and malicious pop up ads. Use these sites and sources at your own risk. Use a VPN to Watch the SAG Awards Online Since a lot of streaming services are region locked, you may find that you can't use any official streaming method due to your geographic location. In many cases, the only way to circumvent these restrictions and watch the SAG Awards is to use a virtual private network (VPN) to make it appear as if you're located in a non-blocked region. If you're looking for a VPN, make sure to check out our list of the best VPNs. Different streaming services implement different levels of protections against VPNs, and some VPNs are better than others at getting around restrictions. That means any given VPN may or may not actually be able to get you access to the SAG Awards, but you'll have a good chance if you stick to services that have good reputations. How to Get a VPN Service and Stay Private on the Web SAG Awards Red Carpet Pre-Show Live Stream The SAG Awards action starts on the red carpet, long before the actual ceremony, and you can catch it all via live stream.
