How to watch American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez online in the US

The first season of American Sports Story arrives on Tuesday, September 17, when viewers can enjoy two back-to-back episodes on FX at 10pm ET/ 7pm PT. Subsequently, episodes air one per week in the same timeslot, with the series concluding on November 12.

If you already have FX, you’re good to go. But if you're a cord-cutter, we recommend Sling TV – specifically the Sling Blue package which includes FX.

Hulu subscribers can also watch FX live with a Hulu with Live TV plan (at $76.99 per month). But the cheapest option might be to catch episodes next day on Hulu with its $7.99 a month on-demand only service. The basic plan also provides a whopping 30-day Hulu free trial.
