You don’t need an expensive cable TV subscription to watch We TV. You can stream We TV using online streaming services. You can watch shows on We TV like Bridezillas, Braxton Family Values, Life After Lockup, Marriage Boot Camp and more, as they air or on-demand.
Want A Quick Answer: Philo is the cheapest way to stream We TV but lacks local channels, sports, and cable news. DIRECTV STREAM and YouTube TV are closer to what one would expect from a cable TV package but are more than double the price of Philo. Sling TV also has We TV Network in their channel lineups at a price point and channel selection in between streaming services like Philo and services like DIRECTV STREAM.
