If you want to watch SYFY without cable, you can use one of these five streaming services: DIRECTV STREAM, Hulu + Live TV, fuboTV, Sling TV, or YouTube TV. Check out all the details of these streaming services below:

DIRECTV STREAM has one of the most impressive channel lineups of any service, so it’s really no surprise that SYFY is among their popular offerings.

Bam, you’re ready to enjoy all the perks of cable, like DVR, without the cable price. Check out our most recent review of DIRECTV STREAM to get answers to all your questions about this service.

Not many service providers have evolved as quickly and captivatingly as Hulu.

Soccer fans and fuboTV go way back. The provider launched in 2017 exclusively as a soccer-specific streaming service, but it has since then amassed quite the collection of hot shows everyone loves.

Knowing you can access SYFY through the streaming services listed above is only half the battle –– now you have to make sure your streaming devices are compatible. In order to help you, we created the following table summarizing which equipment you can use to watch SYFY without cords:

There is more than meets the eye over at SYFY. Sure, the network is a science fiction channel, but that doesn’t mean every show is the same. Some of the varied content you can find there includes:

• “Chucky”
• “Battlestar Galactica”
• “The Magicians”
• “Wild Life”
• “Face Off”

Why fix something that isn‘t broken? If you already have a couple of shows you like, you probably don’t want to check out anything new. But in case you’re curious, here are some recommendations for when you have some free time to kill in between seasons.

The CW is SYFY’s younger, campier sister. Shows like “The Flash” feature a modern-day hero who uses his supernatural speed to save the world day after day. The CW also hosts shows about time travel and people who mysteriously disappear and reappear in their towns. If any of this sounds interesting, go to our guide to watching CW without cable to find out more about watching this network.

Also part of the family, TNT is a bit more mature and less fantastical. “Charmed” for example, is a show about a group of sisters who discover they are witches. You can also find “NCIS” and ride shotgun as special agents investigate only the wildest crimes. And don’t worry, watching TNT without cable is not a crime –– you won’t have Special Agent Gibbs knocking on your door. Check out our guide on how to watch TNT without cable for all the details.
