Great American Country is one of the unsung channels in the Discovery family. In short, it offers the best of what the heartland has to offer.
While the channel began as another channel in the vein of CMT and airing country music programming, it has since broadened its horizons. Flea Market Flip is a rustic, down-home version of American Pickers, and twice as watchable. Log Cabin Living follows families looking to trade big-city bustle for backwoods comfort, and their dealings with the tricky world of log cabin real-estate. Plus, there’s not one, but two shows dedicated to nothing but RVs.
Here’s everything you need to know to watch a Great American Country live stream.
