Ditch Cable (and Your Sanity) with Sling TV: A Comedic Guide to Stream-iversary Bliss
Let's face it, cable is about as relevant as dial-up internet these days. You're paying an arm and a leg for channels you never watch (who even remembers MTV anymore?), and the only "live" element is the constant battle with your grandma over the remote. But fear not, weary cord-cutter! There's a way to watch live TV without sacrificing your firstborn (or your sanity) – Sling TV.
Slinging into Action: How to Subscribe
Sling TV offers a buffet of channels, letting you pick exactly what you want to watch, unlike that weird cafeteria mystery meat surprise. Here's how to subscribe and become a Slinging master:
-
Channel Your Inner Sherlock: Head over to Sling TV's website (don't worry, there's no need for a deerstalker hat...yet).
-
The Great Sling-pocalypse (or How to Choose a Base Package): Sling TV offers two base packages: Orange and Blue. Orange is for the entertainment buff (think ESPN and Disney Channel), while Blue gets you the news junkie essentials (CNN, Fox News...choose wisely, grasshopper). Feeling indecisive? You can even bundle both for the ultimate channel smorgasbord.
-
Extra! Extra! Read All About It (But Only If You Want To): Sling TV offers a plethora of "Extras" – mini channel bundles for the sports fanatic, the comedy connoisseur, or the kiddo who lives for cartoons. Pick and choose as your heart (or budget) desires.
-
Pay Up, Buttercup (But Not Really): Sling TV is famous for being easy on the wallet. Enter your billing information and prepare to be amazed at how much cheaper this is than that cable bill that's been haunting your dreams.
-
And Boom! Goes the Dynamite (or in this case, Your Stream): Download the Sling TV app on your favorite device (phone, tablet, smart TV – you name it) and get ready to be showered with live TV awesomeness.
Pro Tip: Sling TV offers a free trial, so you can test-drive the service before you commit. Think of it as a Slinging test kitchen – sample the channels and see if they tickle your fancy.
