Sling TV is launching a new lost-cost offering in the streaming ecosystem. The live TV streaming service is launching a $4.99 Day Pass, $9.99 Weekend Pass and $14.99 Week Pass. The passes activate live TV instantly, which the streaming service is positioning as an attractive option for fans of football, awards shows and more.

The Super Bowl or the Oscars are about to start, and you're scrambling to figure out how to watch it. You end up having to sign up for a whole month of a live TV streaming service, which then shows up on your bank account again the next month – and the next and the next – until you finally remember to cancel it.

Are you a TV watcher with commitment issues? Sling TV thinks it has the answer in the shape of its new one-day passes. The app-based alternative to traditional cable will sell you a $5 Day Pass that allows you to stream live TV (including sports)from any channel included in its Sling Orange plan for 24 hours.
