The journey toward a fairy tale ending is getting closer for Mel Owens on The Golden Bachelor. However, viewers might face challenges catching the Season 2 finale live due to ongoing negotiations between Disney and YouTube TV.

Disney’s suite of channels, including ESPN, FX, Nat Geo, and ABC—the home of The Golden Bachelor—are currently unavailable on YouTube TV. The two companies have yet to finalize a streaming rights agreement. Amid these stalled negotiations, ABC is encouraging fans to reach out to YouTube TV and express their desire to see their favorite networks restored.

This development coincides with Owens’ trip to Antigua, where he embarks on romantic overnight dates with his final two contestants, Peg Munson and Cindy Angelcyk Cullers. The episodes promise thrilling adventures, including a dune buggy ride and a stingray swim, along with unexpected drama during a romantic dinner.

Despite the absence of live ABC programming on YouTube TV, fans still have options to watch The Golden Bachelor Season 2 finale. Here’s how you can stream the show this week.

How to watch The Golden Bachelor without YouTube TV:

New episodes of The Golden Bachelor are broadcast on ABC every Wednesday at 9:02 p.m. ET. Viewers can also watch live via Hulu + Live TV or DIRECTV.

Tonight’s episode will also be available to stream next day on Hulu.

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.

The only way to watch shows airing live without cable is by using a live TV streaming service. We recommend DIRECTV, which comes with a five-day free trial before payment begins.

DIRECTV offers a number of flexible subscription options, including Genre Packs, so you can best choose which streaming plans fit your needs and budget. Plans start at $49.99/month.

It remains to be seen when Disney’s negotiations with YouTube TV will finally come to an end. But, there are other options to stream live television.
