What if we told you that there is a trick by which you can watch 118 free television channels on your Chromecast device or on a Smart TV with Google TV without having to complicate things? Directly and easily. Keep reading and we’ll explain how to get it.
For some time now, Google has been making efforts so that users of its devices that use Google TV can enjoy watching free television in a simplified way. FAST channels are increasingly becoming the order of the day and, although there are many apps that offer them, what Google does is put them directly in the main menu of your screen without you having to do anything.
The list keeps growing
This system for watching free channels was introduced in 2023 and is already available on practically the majority of devices with Google TV, although not on those that still use the classic Android TV. What has happened in recent days is that Google has added thirteen new channels to the list, demonstrating that it continues to increase support so that there is more and more variety and options to choose from.
However, at the moment this service of channels available from the Google TV home is only available in the United States, although accessing it also from Spain is not very complicated. Luckily, it is not something that has too many blocks or impediments to access.
Available channels
The list of available channels is enormous, but we are going to share it with you in its entirety because that will surely make you see more clearly if you are interested in getting on the bandwagon of free Google TV channels. Of course, first take note of the 13 premiere channels that have been added in the latest update and that have given the system a breath of fresh air:
- iHeartChristmas
- Stringray HolidayScapes
- Speedvision
- PokerGo
- PFL Professional Fighters League
- Latino Vibes
- Out TV
- Moviesphere
- ACCDN
- Swerve Combat
- The Celebrity Name Game Channel
- Xumo Holiday Movie Channel
- DraftKings
We indicate the rest of the available channels below in the following list. As you can see, there is a wide variety and something important is that proposals are offered on many different topics. You have channels dedicated entirely to news to others that are about music, sports, movies, series, science fiction, research and, in general, a multitude of focuses.

In addition to this, keep in mind that Google TV now also integrates channels from different FAST platforms that you probably already know, such as Plex or Pluto TV. In the event that you want to enter one of these channels, what the system will do is access the corresponding application. But if you access one of the 118 channels available in the lists that we have shared with you, when you enter you will see them directly without having to download anything. That easy!
How to watch these Google TV channels?
As we told you before, you have to resort to a trick. And it is none other than using a VPN connection on your Smart TV or Chromecast device. The good news is that there are many services that have their own app for smart televisions and that will make your life much easier. You just have to go to the app bazaar and choose the one that interests you the most. Then connect to a server in the United States and you will be making your device believe that you are in North America, so Google TV will appear just as it does to users in this region.
If you add the free channels that are in Google TV apps, you will have access to more than 800 different ones, although to do so, you will have to download. In addition to the already mentioned Pluto TV and Plex apps, the ones you would have to download to access all the channels would be Tubi and HaystackNews. The good thing is that access to all channels is very simple and the experience is so dynamic that you get used to it quickly. That way you never run out of something to see!
