Thanks to the Internet, we now have access to endless entertainment options without having to leave our home.

Most of you are familiar with on-demand streaming services like Netflix, Hulu Plus, and Amazon Prime.

But have you heard of Yahoo! Screen? Yahoo! Screen is Yahoo’s on-demand streaming  service for TV shows, movies, and web series.

Here are some notable content available on Yahoo! Screen:

  • The 6th season of the show, Community, is exclusively available on Yahoo! Screen
  • The complete video archives of Saturday Night Live (SNL) skits
  • Sporting events such as NFL football and college football

Yahoo! Screen’s Content is Free

Unlike its competitors Netflix and Hulu Plus,  Yahoo Screen doesn’t sell subscriptions. All of its content is free, but are supported by ads. You can access all of its content for free as long as you have Internet connection and are staying in the U.S. (Due to licensing restrictions, its content is not available outside of the U.S. If you are traveling abroad or living outside of the U.S. and want to access Yahoo!
