What channels does Sling TV have?

Though it doesn't offer quite as many channels as its competitors, Sling keeps its price low by focusing on only the best and most popular channels for kids and adults. From ESPN and Disney Channel to NFL Network and HGTV, there's no shortage of shows to watch when you're a Sling subscriber. Sling has two base plans to choose from that vary a bit in which channels they offer, as well as a third plan which includes all the channels from both base plans. There are also add-on packages that let you watch even more channels which aren't included in the base plans for an additional monthly fee.

There's a helpful page dedicated to all the channels available at Sling, though you'll want to remember that many of these channels are only available in add-on packages and not in the base plans. You can click the channel you're interested in for more information.
