Tubi is a free video streaming service that includes on-demand access to 200,000+ movies and TV episodes - more than any other streaming service. Its ad breaks are shorter and less frequent than most free services. Fox executives have called their service “TV on steroids.”
The service includes 55+ live news channels affiliated with NBC, FOX, Cox Media Group, Hearst, and Scripps. Local affiliates provide coverage in most major media markets.
Tubi’s programming includes films and television series from Fox Entertainment, MGM, Paramount Pictures, Lionsgate, Sony Pictures, Warner Bros., NBCUniversal, Disney, and more.

Review
We tested Tubi and other subscription streaming services for more than 100 hours. Tubi is compatible with Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, Google Chromecast, Roku, Android TV, iPhone/iPad, Android Phone/Tablet, Mac, Windows, PlayStation, Xbox, LG Smart TV, Samsung Smart TV, Sony Smart TV, and VIZIO Smart TV.
Content
Originals
Tubi is home to several original movies and shows like “The Stepmother,” “Girls Getaway Gone Wrong,” “Eradication,” “The Freak Brothers,” and “Love and Penguins.”
TV Shows
Tubi offers a few standout shows like “Firefly,” “One Punch Man,” “Everybody Hates Chris,” “The Jeffersons,” “The Dick Van Dyke Show,” and “Sleepy Hollow.”
But most of their TV offerings are geared toward light entertainment: “Duck Dynasty,” “Storage Wars,” “Kitchen Nightmares,” or “The Masked Singer.” There are also some kitschy old series like “ALF,” “Fantasy Island,” “The Beverly Hillbillies,” and “The Flying Nun.”
Movies
Tubi has some high-quality movies, though most are low-quality schlock. At the time of this writing, standouts include “American History X,” “Cast Away,” “RoboCop,” “Three Kings,” “The Perfect Storm,” “The Long Kiss Goodnight,” and a handful of James Bond movies.
The service offers many well-curated categories like anime, action, faith, comedy, LGBTQ, romance, and sci-fi & fantasy. There are also more thoughtful categories like cult classics, highly rated on Rotten Tomatoes, and “not on Netflix.”
Hidden gems include some long video clips with white noise, so you can listen and watch rain, fireplaces, or fireflies. There are also exercise videos, travel shows, and stand-up comedy performances.
Commercial breaks appear roughly every 25 minutes in a film.
Kids
A special Tubi Kids section helpfully segments children’s programming away from the more mature content. You’ll see family movies like “Free Willy,” “Osmosis Jones,” “All Dogs Go to Heaven,” and “Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure.”
When it comes to TV, Tubi offers “Barney & Friends,” “G.I. Joe,” “Lego Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitsu,” “The Flintstones,” and “Scooby-Doo Where are You?”
For the youngest viewers, there’s BabyFirst TV and a selection of educational content.
