If you’re wondering how you can watch Power in the US on Netflix then this is the guide for you. In this guide I’m going to show you how you can do exactly that in just 5 simple steps.
Power is one of the most exciting shows around and with 5 seasons under its belt, it just gets better and better.
Unfortunately though there are some issues with the distribution of Power in the US.
To watch in the US you either need a Starz subscription, a Hulu subscription or access to a cable network that carries Starz.
TV provider Optimum dropped the Starz network so if you’re a cable viewer it can be hard to keep up with the latest episodes of Power. Thankfully though there is a really easy way you can watch Power on Netflix and below I’ll show you how.
Watch Power in the US on Netflix
If you’re subscribed to a cable company that has dropped the Starz network then you’re now left without being able to watch Power.
Unless you’re prepared to stump up even more cash for an online account at Starz or Hulu it means the end to your Power watching days.
It doesn’t have to be like that though because there is a really easy way you can watch all the latest seasons and all the past seasons of Power online on Netflix. Of course you’ll need a Netflix account for this but as a TV savvy watcher, I’m sure you’ve already got one.
On top of that you’re going to need to get yourself a VPN service from a provider such as ExpressVPN. This comes in the form of an app for all major devices including Windows and Mac OS computers and laptops, Android and iOS tablets and phones and the Amazon Fire TV and Fire Stick.
A VPN changes your online location and lets you appear elsewhere. Power isn’t available on the US Netflix website but is on the UK Netflix site. With a VPN you can login to the UK Netflix site with your regular US Netflix account and watch all of Power.
Best of all, VPN services are completely legal. So let’s find out how.

Once the app has connected all you need to do is visit the Netflix Power page or open your regular Netflix app and search for ‘Power’.
Unlike US Netflix you’ll be able to find the Power page and play any of the new or old episodes and seasons.

How does a VPN work?
Understanding how a VPN works is really simple.
Netflix offers different movies and TV shows around the world depending on what country you’re in. While Netflix has the rights to show shows like Power in the UK, they don’t have the rights in the US.
This means that users in the UK can watch Power on Netflix, whereas American users can’t.
A VPN works by disguising your location and making it appear as if you’re somewhere else. When you use a VPN from a service like ExpressVPN you can pretend you’re in the UK.
When you access Netflix it thinks you’re in the UK and so lets you access the UK catalogue of movies and TV shows. Of course this includes Power.
Netflix let you login to any country website of theirs with your regular account. So you can use your American Netflix account on the UK Netflix website.
The result is, full access to watch Power in the US on Netflix.
Recap: How to watch Power in the US on Netflix
Don’t worry if you don’t have access to Starz and you don’t have a Hulu account because you can watch Power on Netflix.
If you try and access Netflix like normal in the US then you won’t be able to find Power because it’s not ‘officially’ available.
It is however available on Netflix in the UK and by using an app called a VPN from a provider such as ExpressVPN you can tap into the UK Netflix website with your US Netflix account details and watch.
Just click the orange button below to get a VPN. Download their app for your type of device and connect to the United Kingdom.
You can then search Netflix and find Power. You’re then able to watch all past and current seasons of Power in the United States.
