How to watch Lanterns for free (100% legally)

If you’re based in the USA and you’re looking to stream all episodes of Lanterns legally and for free (yes, 100% free), there’s a great method you can use right now (August 2026), here’s how to do it in a few simple steps:

At the moment, you can stream all episodes of Lanterns for free via HBO Max, a service you can use for free via Prime Video with a free trial (even if you don’t have Prime Video). It’s super easy to start and cancel this free trial, and as long as you remember to cancel the HBO Max free trial after you’ve watched the episodes and before the 7 days are over, you won’t be charged anything at all. There’s no catch – this is just a great way to stream this series for free in crystal-clear quality without any annoying pop-up ads or sketchy websites!

All you have to do is:

• head to the page for Lanterns on Prime Video
• start the 7 day free trial for HBO Max (there’s a button to do that on the page as shown in the image above)
• watch all of the episodes of Lanterns within the 7 day period
• cancel the HBO Max free trial before the 7 days are up (which is very easy to do within your Account settings)
• and that’s it – you just watched all episodes of Lanterns online in excellent quality for free without paying anything!

As long as you cancel the HBO Max free trial before the 7 days are up, no payments will be taken, as explained on the Prime Video Lanterns page here.

Don’t have Prime Video? No problem!

You can do this very easily if you already have Prime Video, but even if you don’t already have a Prime Video account, it’s no problem – you can still start the free trial for HBO Max as long as you have an Amazon account:

Free trials like this don’t last forever, so don’t miss out! HBO has only just re-introduced this amazing free trial for August 2026, so it’s a great offer to take advantage of.

As long as you don’t mind watching all of the episodes within the 7 day period, it’s the best way of watching the show for free right now, legally, in excellent quality and with all the extras like subtitles. You can learn more and start the free trial on the Lanterns page on Prime Video here.
