The only mentions of where to view TC I can find on the Tucker Carlson website FAQs are mostly social media outlets:
Below are links to our main social media accounts for you to follow.

Tucker CarlsonIt's not readily apparent to most that each channel provider you see on Roku adapts its app to run on the Roku operating system, provides it to Roku, and maintains it. The only channels that Roku maintains are their own The Roku Channel, the Roku Media Player, and several Roku information channels. For everything else, Roku just provides the platform on which they run.
For any additional service you'd like to have available via Roku, contact the service directly and let them know.But the Tucker Carlson streamer was just announced within the last couple of days. It will probably take them a while to get all their ducks in line. If it doesn't show up in the Channel Store in a week or so, THEN bug them.

Every one of the Tucker Carlson Network links provided just goes to his website for viewing on your phone or other device. Hopefully they will address the Roku streaming in the future because it's much more enjoyable watching streaming material on a TV than on a small device.

Just announced today tuckercarlson.com on the Rumble app
- StorytimetinkNewbie
Trouble with Rumble is that it does not show all the videos, only selected ones.

Hi Storytimetink,
Welcome, and thank you for posting here at the Roku Community.
For channel functionality and availability, we would recommend that you reach out to the channel publisher or provider directly and inquire further regarding this. They may be able to provide initial assistance.
You can inform us of what you find out.
Thanks,
Janadee

I'm all in with paying for Tucker's new network but my dad needs a way to easily watch it on his TV. I bought him a roku now we just need the app!

Just like everybody, I was very proud to see Tucker come out with his own " Tucker Carlson Network " and I could not wait to join and did right away..
I also was wondering the same thing if they were going to have an app so it could be streamed off Roku, Fire TV, Android TV, Google Chromecast ETC... So I did send them an email and found a little information..
From where I understand they are working on one and possibly even have it ready to put out but the problem is something a little different, Fox and Fox Nation Have their streaming apps on Roku and others as well, with very many subscribers, Which seems like no big deal because many networks have apps on Roku and are competing each other..
But the difference here is that Tucker was not actually fired from Fox and also did not actually quit Fox They just took him off the air and he is still Going through a court battle with them because they have not paid him what was left on his contract because they actually didn't fire him and he has actually not quiet and so he took it to court so he will not lose his money...
So there lies the problem he doesn't want to quit and just lose all that money and they don't want to give it to him because since he has been gone Fox has lost over $650 Million & very bad ratings... So it is going through court now and if he competes with them he could lose all the money left they owe him on his contract.
So I think you're trying to figure out if it would be a violation if he does put an app on there before they go through with it and does not take long to make an app to put on there for streaming services. So maybe it won't be long because it's so much nicer to have an app on a streaming device that in trying to find other ways to play it through the TV...
But If this will help anybody. If you have a laptop with an HDMI out you can make it straight to the back of the TV and it will play it on it just fine. Also there's other things as well you can do such if you have a Samsung TV you can play it. Wirelessly from your PC on it or you Can cast it from your phone or tablet to your Roku box or Google box and it will work just fine as well As long as they are on the same Wi-Fi network.
But if anybody does need any help? I will help you figure out a way. Just send me a message and I will help you get it working as I do not mind at all...

Appreciate the added information. It appears that Tucker along with all the other truth tellers are being suppressed and in some cases silenced. Fox is using the contract as a way to keep him from talking while they continue to mislead and lie. Such a sad state of affairs these days.

Just wondering if TCN is actually live, or just announced? Why would anyone pay money for something that is not actually available yet? Didn't anyone learn anything from the Newsmax+ debacle?

There may be no streaming apps, but my understanding is the website streaming content is behind a pay wall.

I never could get smartcast to work on my samsung tablet. Instead I use the app called web video caster.
You install the app web video caster on your phone or tablet, You also need to install web video caster channel to your roku, even though you don't actually select the channel on your roku/tv, it still needs to be there.
then you go to the video on your phone or tablet on Tucker Carlson network that you want to watch.
Then take the web address of the video and paste it into the web video caster address bar on your phone or tablet and press the yellow button that comes up and flashes.
Then you tap the link that comes up with the format "mpd"
Next you will then choose your roku device and it will then cast to your tv.
It has worked every time for me. It sounds more complicated than it actually is, it should go step by step for you and after a few times, you'll know it automatically. Good luck Tucker Carlson fans!!! Glad to help any of you😊😊

Regarding the app Web Video Caster: In at least one case, I did have to go to the menu in the upper right corner and select, "Scan page for videos," before the app was willing to load the video to Roku, rather than just playing it on my phone. However that simple step solved the problem.

AIRPLAY from an apple device works!...We went 6 months no knowing a good way to watch Tucker on the big screen until I tried airplay...so far, so good...airplay works from both the TCN website and Tucker on X...TCN needs to post this in their FAQ!
- BostonBobReel Rookie
No Roku Channel for TCN. I use my Apple iPad to view via the TCN.com website and use Apple Airplay to send to my TV after establishing that feature via my Roku streaming device.
