Procedural crime shows are undoubtedly entertaining, but things get even more interesting when the crimes are real, and so are the heroes. With a new show on ABC, we plan to watch The Genetic Detective online, so let's go figure out exactly how to do that.

The Genetic Detective follows CeCe Moore. She is a genetic genealogist who helped law enforcement officers solve crimes that they never thought they would. All are murder cases with nothing but DNA left behind, and police officers feeling like they were looking for a needle in a haystack.

CeCe Moore has a passion for genealogy, and she has been working for years to identify humans based on their DNA, while also taking a look at their family tree. Of course, things are far more complicated than that, and we'll get to take a look at this particular aspect when we start watching the show.

When and Where to Watch The Genetic Detective?

The Genetic Detective will premiere on ABC on May 19th. New episodes will be available to watch starting at 10 PM.

How Can I Live The Genetic Detective?

If you like spending time online and catching up with your favorite shows, you should know that watching TV over the internet is also perfectly possible. One of the best platforms to help you see The Genetic Detective is Hulu, which has a single bundle of networks for you to enjoy. Start your free trial of Hulu now!

Besides all those channels available in the main bundle, there are also several channel packs that you can try out, as well as premium networks. When you subscribe to Hulu, you also get to enjoy all that content they have on the Hulu On-Demand platform, so you get two services in one. There are a ton of cool apps that you can download for your devices, whether we're talking about iOS and Android smartphones and tablets, Apple TV, Android TV, Fire TV, Chromecast, Roku, and more. (Note: ABC is a channel that broadcasts in select markets only, so if you live in an area where you do not get coverage, you can always use a VPN to connect to a server from a city where ABC is available. In this way, you'll get access to all those channels available there. Click here to get all the details on all the steps you need to take.)

Other Ways to Watch The Genetic Detective Online

YouTube TV - We also have YouTube TV on the list, and this is a really cool service that only features one bundle of networks. There are no extra channel packs here, but there are a bunch of premium networks you might want to look into. One really cool thing about YouTube TV is that all subscribers can enjoy unlimited cloud DVR storage space and three simultaneous streams, at no additional cost.

How Can I Watch The Genetic Detective When Traveling Outside of the United States?

If you have to travel outside of the United States, you should probably find out that all live TV platforms and streaming services in the United States are geo-blocked. This translates into your inability to watch any of the content from the platforms you love because all these services have to respect the licensing deal they signed, which means they cannot broadcast content beyond the borders of the United States. As annoying as this can be, there is not much you can do about the situation other than changing your IP address to appear to be in the United States. In order to do this, you will need to use a VPN, which can solve the problem for you in just a few seconds. To do this, we think you should go for ExpressVPN, as it is a really cool tool that has thousands of servers all over the world.

Here's how you can use ExpressVPN to watch The Genetic Detective:

Can I Watch The Genetic Detective Live on the ABC Website?

Watching The Genetic Detective live on the ABC website is possible because there is a live stream you can check out there. You will need an account on the ABC website to access the live stream, however, and you can get one by using credentials from your TV provider. The TV provider can be one of the live TV services or a cable company if you haven't cut the cord yet. (Note: The ABC live stream is geo-blocked, so if you want to access it from abroad, you will need a VPN. You can click here to get all the details you need to make this possible.)

Can I Watch The Genetic Detective with a TV Antenna?

Watching The Genetic Detective with a TV antenna is entirely possible because ABC continues to broadcast over-the-air. These devices come quite cheap, so they are quite attractive for all the cord-cutters trying to reduce costs for entertainment.

Before you buy one of these devices, you should look into whether ABC broadcasts in your area or not. To do this, you should check a site like NoCable to find out all the networks that broadcast in your area, along with information about how far the broadcast stations are. The latter detail will help you figure out what range you need your device to cover, so you know exactly what to buy. You also check the devices above in case any have the right features for your household.

Can I Binge-Watch The Genetic Detective?

Binge-watching, The Genetic Detective, shouldn't be a difficult job considering the fact that the episodes will be uploaded to the ABC website. Furthermore, it's also quite likely the show will become available to stream on Hulu, so there will be plenty of opportunities to watch all the episodes of The Genetic Detective whenever you have the time.

Can I Purchase The Genetic Detective Episodes?

Buying episodes or the full season of The Genetic Detective should be possible soon after the show starts airing. The episodes will be available to buy from platforms like Google Play, YouTube, iTunes, Microsoft Store, Amazon Prime, and Vudu. Make sure you visit all these platforms before making a decision, as they may have better deals available for you.
