American Rust premiers on Sunday, September 12 at 10pm ET / PT on Showtime, with a new episode released weekly for its eight episode run. The original series may be produced by a premium television network, but you can watch without cable too.

Showtime's streaming service, Showtime Now (opens in new tab), lets you stream American Rust on demand. Each week the episode will be available to watch online after it's aired, or you can catch up at a time convenient to you. 

At the time of writing this, you can sign up for a 30 day free trial (opens in new tab) before committing to a $10.99 a month subscription. With your subscription you can stream your favorite series, movies, boxing, and more ad free, and download full episodes and movies to watch offline.

OTT streaming services Sling TV (opens in new tab), Hulu, and Fubo TV (opens in new tab) will give you access to the series, but you'll need a $10.99 a month Showtime add-on as well as a subscription to whichever cord-cutting service you use.

All of these streaming services are compatible with a whole host of devices, including iOS and Android devices, Android TV, Apple TV, Chromecast, Xbox, and many more, so you can watch on whatever is convenient to you.
