How to Watch Live TV and Local Channels on Fire Stick or Fire TV Cube (2022 Guide)

Watching live TV on a Fire Stick or Fire TV Cube is pretty easy in 2022, even if you’re looking for local channels that you used to watch on cable TV.

There is a lot of competition among streaming services, but don't overlook the free streaming and over-the-air options for watching live TV.

If you’re cutting the cord from cable TV, here are some of the best options that I used for watching live TV and local channels on a Fire Stick or Fire TV Cube.

All of these tips are completely legal. There’s no complicated downloading, jailbreaking or rooting process. You can start using most of them right away on your Fire Stick or Fire TV Cube.

Buy a Fire TV Stick or Fire TV Recast here to support the channel.

Just because it has abc it don't mean it is the one where you live

[klogjo]

Just want to watch GMA on my fire stick, no help there

[michaelwyckoff]

Sometimes it's just easier to hook up a antenna.

[lindaisenegger]

Wow...I cut the cord about a week ago and have been looking for a channel like this!...Thank you!

[Plattinumstatus]

So with firestick alone, will I be able to watch live ABC, NBC, Fox free?

When I checked Paramount plus you could not get live tv for 4.99 a month. You have to pay the 9.99 a month to get live now. Do you know something I missed?

Hello, this is Vincent Suttle really appreciate the video, but would it be possible to do a Canadian video on the subject?

Thanks.

[kennethsmith]

It would have been alot more helpful; (instead of showing through most of the video what movies or stations a person can receive) if you had shown play by play; or more detailed on how to use, and set-up the fire TV.

I just bought the latest firesticks and signed up for hulu + live and it doesn't show up in the firestick live guide 'sync to source' menu. Posted this problem on amazon forum and amazon staff member responded that this feature isn't supported for hulu. I see it in your video. What am I (and amazon) missing?

[southside]

YOUR THE MAN🥰

[needPeace]

I have more channels in firestick than my cable and it’s free!😂😂😂

[frankruffin]

No help
no you can’t get live local you get on dish or an antenna what an awful self promotion

[allenmontalvo]

You forgot the "Peacock" app. Their app has excellent programming!!!

[kaydenver]

so if i wanna watching live local stations with Fire TV Stick I have to get TV Antenna right?

[djsavage]

Does nobody understand the concept of free TV? Free means you don’t pay one penny there’s no out-of-pocket cost that’s what free means and you’re over here pushing Paramont plus you have to pay for that service you’re telling people go to CBS and NBC and go to the web their websites but you’re not telling anybody that you’re gonna have to pay to be able to access all the good data that they have in regards to movies and TV and I’m talking live TV like it used to be when I was a kid. Wish you guys would get your act together stop posting videos if you don’t know what the hell you’re talking about.

[sirenagarrido]

I really interested in local tv I am new at this I don’t have a lot of knowledge but I still don’t understand how can I get those channels I need to stop my cable tv is too expensive I am very confused and I don’t have anyone near me that that can help and show me what and how to do it, until now you more o less clear me of different things I am going to try to see if it works

[privatepilot]

I don’t have cable or dish. I really, truely cut my cord. There’s nothing worth watching. Remember when cable first came out and there was no commercials? That was why you got cable back then. And it was only $7-8 a month. Now they get what you pay for your monthly cable and get paid by advertisers. I’m not buying into the scam anymore. And you know something? Life’s much better without it. At least for me.

[marna]

I just am wondering if there’s a way I can watch my cable (I pay for and have optimum so I get a bunch of channels (mostly the general ones like ABC, NBC etc.) through the Amazon fire stick so that I don’t need to get an HDMI switch port and use multiple remotes to switch between my fire stick to cable tv. Is this possible somehow?

[JMVideos]

Took me forever to find out that IMDbTV is now called freevee.
