The easiest and cheapest way to watch your local ABC affiliate is by using a TV Antenna. Nearly every television market broadcasts ABC over the air, so all you need is an antenna and you are enjoying ABC free of charge. Check out our guide on how to choose the best TV antenna for more information.

However, that may not be the best option for you. Perhaps you need to watch something now or you don’t feel like dealing with setting up an antenna. In that case, there are plenty of live TV streaming services that stream your local ABC affiliate along with many other networks and pay TV channels.
