What is Crackle?:
Crackle is a website where you can watch free TV shows and full-length movies. It is owned by Sony Pictures Entertainment.
How Does Crackle Work?:
Just register with the site (free), pick a show or movie that you want to watch and hit play. It's that easy. If you have Tivo, Roku, a Sony Blu-Ray Player or a similar device, you can also stream videos to your TV. And if you want to watch shows on the go, there's a free app that you can download to your cell phone (the Android version is coming soon).
Wondering how all of this can be free? It's simple. Instead of charging a membership fee, Crackle just runs the occasional commercial. It keeps the site going, and it keeps you from having to pay for the service.
