Stream the Reality TV Channel Online Without Cable

Bravo has become a must-have for reality TV fans, offering a slew of iconic, longtime shows and new programming each year. If you’re wondering where to watch Bravo online without cable, you’ve come to the right place. Keep reading to learn how to tune into the network, including both live and on-demand streaming options.

Since launching in 1980, the channel has undergone several transformations, but it began to focus on reality programming in the early 2000s, following its acquisition by NBCUniversal. Bravo is the network behind the Real Housewives franchise, the Below Deck series, Top Chef, Vanderpump Rules, and the original iteration of Project Runway, among other hit series. It’s safe to say that it has played a massive role in elevating must-see reality TV over the years, and now, it’s not just for cable subscribers.

If you don’t want to read any further, the cheapest way to regularly live stream Bravo in the US is via DirecTV MyEntertainment. We’ll break down everything you need to know about the app, highlight other Bravo-friendly services, and outline when Peacock will come in handy.

Where to watch Bravo in the US

Cord-cutters don’t need to worry about missing out on Bravo. The network is available through some of the best live TV streaming services we’ve personally tested, including DirecTV, Sling TV, and Fubo. All of these are month-to-month services, so you can cancel at any time without having to worry about long-term contracts.

DirecTV

DirecTV is the cheapest way to live stream Bravo in the US, thanks to its MyEntertainment genre pack. The live TV package carries Bravo, AMC, E!, FX, and MTV in its lineup of 60+ entertainment and lifestyle channels. We recommend this package because it also includes the ad-supported Disney Plus and Hulu bundle, as well as ad-supported HBO Max. Subscriptions cost $35 a month, but new users can get $5 a month off their first two months of service after a five-day free trial.

DirecTV MyEntertainment

The MyEntertainment package offers lifestyle and entertainment-centric channels (plus a few other surprises). Channel offerings include Bravo, FX, TLC, and more. Subscribers also gain access to ad-supported Disney Plus, Hulu, and HBO Max.

Sling TV

The second-cheapest way to live stream Bravo in the US is via Sling TV. The streamer’s Blue plan carries Bravo and around 40 other live channels, including USA, E!, TLC, Lifetime, AMC, and select local channels in certain areas. Subscriptions start at $46 a month, but select regions with robust local network coverage cost $51 a month.

Sling Blue

Sling Blue carries 40+ channels, including FS1, FX, and the NFL Network. It also has local networks (like FOX, NBC, and ABC) in select regions.

Fubo

Fubo also offers Bravo as part of its Pro plan. Pro subscriptions feature over 200 live channels, including local networks and many popular cable channels. Subscriptions also unlock access to ESPN Unlimited. Pro plans cost $85 a month, but new users can get $30 off their first month of service after a five-day free trial.

Fubo Pro

Fubo is the streaming service for sports fans. Its huge library of channels includes regional and international sports leagues, setting it apart from the competition. You can also tack on additional programming to your plan, but it’ll cost you extra.

Peacock

If you’re looking to watch past episodes of a Bravo show or don’t mind waiting until the day after a new episode airs, then Peacock is the way to go. Subscriptions start at $11 a month for ad-supported content, but you can upgrade to Peacock Premium Plus for ad-free on-demand content and a 24/7 live stream of your local NBC station. Both plans feature a massive collection of Bravo programming, including past seasons dating back more than a decade for some shows. New episodes land on Peacock the day after they air on Bravo.

Peacock Premium (Monthly Plan)

Peacock is a convenient streaming source for hit NBC TV shows, Universal movies, and select sports like Sunday Night Football. The service also carries its own slate of original programming.
