If you want to watch Married at First Sight on Sling TV, here’s what you need to know.
How to watch Married at First Sight on Sling TV
1) Sling Orange
Cost: $25 per month
To watch Married at First Sight, you need access to Lifetime. Luckily, the channel famous for steamy dramas, tear-jerking dramas, and Unsolved Mysteries reruns is available in both basic Sling TV packages. Sling Orange comes with ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPN3, which is enough to satisfy most sports fans. You’ll also get access to Disney Channel and Freeform, which is a must if there are tweens in your household.
2) Sling Blue
Cost: $25 per month
If sports aren’t paramount when it comes to picking a cable package, Sling Blue offers a few more channels than Sling Orange for the same price. You won’t get any ESPN channels, Disney, or Freeform, but you’ll still get Lifetime. Plus, this package comes with entertainment venues like TLC, STFY, FX and its sister network FXX. And while you can’t watch ESPN, FS1 and FS2, NBCSN, and NFL Network will scratch your sports itch. This package also comes with your local Fox and NBC affiliates in select markets.
3) Sling Orange + Blue
Cost: $40 per month
Sometimes, it’s hard to pick favorites, even if it’s something as simple as a cable package. So don’t pick between Sling Orange and Sling Blue. Get both of them. Sling TV makes it worth your while, offering a 20 percent discount when you nab both packages together. With this package, a single subscription lets you stream on up to four devices at once, and you’ll get all of the channels you see above.
Whichever package you get, you’ll gain access to Lifetime, to watch Married at First Sight online. Lifetime is also the home of other reality hits including Project Runway All Stars, Dance Moms, Bring It!, and the essential docuseries Surviving R. Kelly.

That way, you can fast-forward through all those pesky commercials, which drive any bonafide streamer bananas. You’ll have access to your recorded shows as long as you’re a Sling TV customer, so feel free to stockpile your favorite shows. Sling TV even allows you to record multiple shows at once.
