Does Sling get CBS?

Answered by Edward Huber

Sling does not offer CBS in any of its packages. This means that if you are a Sling subscriber, you will not be able to access CBS programming through the service. CBS is a major network in the United States, and it offers popular shows such as “NCIS,” “The Big Bang Theory,” and “Survivor.”

While Sling does provide a wide range of channels and content, it does not have an agreement with CBS to include their programming in its lineup. This is not uncommon, as different streaming services and cable providers have different agreements with networks.

If you are specifically looking for CBS content, there is another option called CBS All Access. CBS All Access is a streaming service offered by CBS that allows you to watch CBS shows on-demand, as well as offering live streaming of local CBS affiliates in select markets. It costs $5 per month and provides access to a variety of CBS content, including current and past shows.

It is worth noting that CBS All Access is a separate subscription service and is not included with Sling. However, it may be a good option if CBS programming is important to you and you are willing to pay for an additional streaming service.

In terms of other major networks, Sling also does not offer ABC, The CW, or Telemundo in any of its packages. This means that if you are looking for programming from these networks, you will need to explore other streaming options or consider a traditional cable or satellite subscription.

Sling’s live locals, which are the local channels available in your area, can be quite limited. Unless you are in a major market, you may not be able to access your local channels through Sling. This is something to keep in mind if local news and programming are important to you.

While Sling offers a variety of channels and content, it does not include CBS, ABC, The CW, or Telemundo in its lineup. If you are specifically looking for CBS programming, you may want to consider subscribing to CBS All Access.
