6 Best Services to Watch Disney XD Live Without Cable

ESPN, ABC, FX, and other Disney channels are not currently available to stream on DirecTV Stream due to a carriage dispute.

Unlike sister channel The Disney Channel, Disney XD is geared toward pre-teens, especially those with a predilection for sports. It airs a mix of old and new shows, but its primetime block is dedicated mostly to competitive gaming. Sports segments include the countdown series SportsCenter High-5, while notable reruns include Gravity Falls, Big Hero 6: The Series, and Phineas and Ferb. 

You can watch Disney XD without cable on Fubo, Hulu with Live TV, YouTube TV, Vidgo, Sling TV + Kids Extra, or Fubo Elite with Sports Plus.

The cheapest option to watch Disney XD is Sling TV + Kids Extra for $6/month. Unfortunately, you cannot watch Disney XD with DirecTV Stream, Philo, Sling Orange, and Sling Blue.

Below, we count down the best ways to watch Disney XD that cord-cutters use. We made this ranking based on each service's value: how many other channels each dollar of subscription will get you.
