How to watch Jane the Virgin without Netflix? All streaming options explored

Jane the Virgin is leaving Netflix as of September 5, due to The CW and Netflix being unable to renew their partnership in 2019. As a consequence, several CW shows that were once streaming on Netflix have been gradually pulled from the platform over the years, with Jane the Virgin being the latest case.

However, there are options to view the satirical telenovela outside of a Netflix subscription. This includes renting or buying the show on Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, the Microsoft Store, Fandango at Home, and YouTube.

Jane the Virgin is an adaptation of Venezuela's Juana la Virgen and stars Gina Rodriguez as Jane Gloriana Villanueva, a 23-year-old hotel worker who is saving herself for marriage at her grandmother's behest. However, due to a mistake by her doctor, she is artificially inseminated and becomes pregnant.
