This Is Us season 2, episode 4 live stream: Watch online
This one goes out to the cord-cutters: Everything you need to know to watch This Is Us season 2 episode 4 online via live stream.
This Is Us season 2 episode 4, “Still There,” will air Tuesday Oct. 17 at 9 / 8 central time on NBC, but not everyone has a TV or a cable package to tune in. But that’s okay! This is the 21st century and there are numerous ways for savvy and network-free TV fans to watch their beloved shows, including but not limited to This Is Us, online.
We’ll run through the options in detail below, but it comes down to network services (NBC), cable substitutes (Fubo, Playstation Vue) and the streaming giants (Hulu, Amazon).
NBC Live
As the name suggests, NBC Live is the peacock network’s live streaming app. On your smartphone, tablet, laptop or device of your choice, you can watch online any of NBC’s shows — and you can watch them live. The catch is, of course, that it’s still tied to TV service providers and so you need a cable subscription to log in.
That said, this is the age of the subscription barter system. Someone in your network must have cable — we’re looking at you, parents — and you likely have a subscription to offer them in return: Netflix, Hulu, Amazon. If not, well, maybe then you just owe your This Is Us patron dinner.

Hulu Live TV
This Is Us is available to watch on Hulu the next day, but if you absolutely can’t wait that long and are looking to watch live online, that’s where Hulu Live TV comes in. Again, as the name suggests, it’s the streaming service’s live TV option. More expensive than the standard Hulu subscription, you may find it worth it if you really can’t wait the extra day.
There is, of course, a free week trial if you’re looking for a quick fix.

Amazon Video
Amazon offers access to This Is Us through Amazon Video. Not included in an Amazon Prime subscription, you can buy single episodes of This Is Us season 2 or a season pass for a slight discount. In either case, new episodes are available to stream immediately and as the show airs, i.e., live.

Fubo
Fubo is a live streaming service that gives you access to 75+ live channels, including NBC, home of This Is Us. While perhaps expensive if you have other subscriptions, if you’re starting from a baseline of ‘no streaming subscriptions whatsoever’ you could do worse than their $40/month with the first two months at the promotional rate of $20.

Playstation Vue
Vue is another live streaming TV service, specifically geared towards those who use Playstation as their entertainment console. That said, it also works on Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, Roku, Android TV, desktop browsers and mobile devices. There’s DVR and on-demand — essentially everything you would expect from a cable substitute.
And! There’s a five-day free trial you can use if you want to try the whole package, or seven-day if you just want to try an NBC subscription.

The Dark Web
There are plentiful, wholly legal options for This Is Us live streams and they no doubt provide you with the best quality stream as well. And between all the free trials and a network of likeminded TV fan friends, it should take you nearly the whole season to cycle through. If, however, for whatever reasons, you are looking to shadier places, there are other free live streams out there for you to choose from, including:
