We all need a little playful comedy in our lives, and Hacks has delivered just that for the past five years. With Jean Smart and Hannah Einbinder’s excellent chemistry and hilarious jokes in every episode, it will be sad to see this show end, but all good things must come to an end.
Now we face the final curtain as Hacks season 5 hits our screens. Whether you’ve been following the sitcom from the beginning or you’re just catching up, we’ve got you covered with all the ways you can watch Hacks online via streaming services.
Use a VPN to watch hacks anywhere
A VPN is a handy piece of software that can make your device appear as if it’s back in your home country, thereby letting you unlock your usual streaming services (terms permitting). The best VPN right now? We recommend NordVPN – it does everything and comes with a 75% discount.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple:
1. Install VPN of your choice. As we have said, NordVPN is our favorite.
2. Select the location you want to connect to in the VPN app. For example, if you are visiting the US and want to see your usual service, select a UK server from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the show. Go to HBO Max or your usual domestic streaming service and watch Hacks as if you were at home.
