The gripping start to the ninth season of 9-1-1 concluded last week as Athena, played by Angela Bassett, and Hen, portrayed by Aisha Hinds, wrapped up their dramatic space-bound adventure. As the dust settles from this thrilling escapade, fans are eager to return to the show’s usual pulse-pounding pace. This week’s episode promises a festive twist with a holiday theme. However, a looming issue could disrupt the viewing experience for some: negotiations between Disney and YouTube are at a standstill, potentially impacting those who rely on YouTube TV for their 9-1-1 fix.
According to ABC, the upcoming episode of 9-1-1, titled “Día de los Muertos,” will see the 118 team confronting their beliefs as they respond to eerie Halloween emergencies, including a Jack-o’-lantern incident and unexpected scares. Known for its masterful handling of spooky themes, 9-1-1 promises an episode that viewers will not want to miss.
The crux of the problem lies in Disney’s ongoing negotiations with YouTube over streaming rights for its properties on YouTube TV. This includes ABC, the home network of both 9-1-1 and its spinoff, 9-1-1: Nashville. ABC has even encouraged fans to reach out to YouTube, urging them to restore their favorite networks.
For those unable to stream the latest episodes of 9-1-1 or 9-1-1: Nashville via YouTube TV, there are alternative options available. Here’s how you can ensure you don’t miss out on the action.
How To Watch 9-1-1 Without YouTube TV:
New episodes of 9-1-1 air every Thursday at 8:00 p.m. ET on ABC. Viewers with a cable subscription that includes ABC can watch live by tuning in a few minutes early. Additionally, episodes can be streamed live on ABC’s website or through the ABC app using your cable login credentials. For those who prefer to watch at their convenience, a DVR can be used to record the episode for later viewing.
No cable? No worries! There are other live viewing options, like live TV skinny bundles, which give you access to networks without cable. Check out fuboTV, Hulu + Live TV, DIRECTV, or Sling TV. (FuboTV, DIRECTV, and Hulu + Live TV offer free trials for new subscribers.)
How To Watch 9-1-1 On Hulu:
You can also stream new episodes of 9-1-1 Season 9 on Hulu, the day after they air on ABC.
If you’re new to Hulu, you can get started with a 30-day free trial on the streamer’s basic (with ads) plan. After the trial period, you’ll pay $10.99/month. If you want to upgrade to Hulu ad-free, it costs $18.99/month.
If you want to stream even more and save a few bucks a month while you’re at it, we recommend subscribing to one of the Disney+ Bundles, all of which include Hulu. These bundles start at $12.99/month for ad-supported Disney+ and Hulu and goes up to $32.99/month for Disney+, Hulu, and Max, all ad-free.
