DirecTV’s Thanksgiving 2021 Free Preview Feast Runs November 24 – 28
|DirecTV is offering a Thanksgiving 2021 Free Preview Feast of HBO, Cinemax, Showtime, Starz and Epix.
The premium channel lineup will be available Wednesday, November 24 through Sunday, November 28, 2021.
All you need to do to take advantage of this Thanksgiving Free Preview extravaganza is tune to channels 501-560 (may be different for some subscribers) and enjoy.
DVR for Later Viewing
There have been questions as to whether DirecTV is still allowing recorded shows to be viewed after free previews have ended.
During previous DirecTV free previews, we confirmed that recording free preview programming does still work, as does viewing recordings after the free preview has ended. Hopefully, it stays this way going forward.
So, if you have space on your DVR, you can record as many free preview programs as you like to watch at a later date. Once recorded, you have them saved until you delete them.
Wrap Up
DirecTV offered this free preview feast last year – 2020 – over the long Thanksgiving Weekend, and it’s a nice gesture on their part to bring it back once again this year.
Don’t forget to take advantage of all that free programming and DVR shows and movies you want to see, but are too busy eating, watching football or getting outside for some fresh air before the winter chill really sets in to sit and watch.
