Try twitch.tv . I don't have cable/satellite so if MLG has a channel on TV now, more power to 'em.

I've never heard of MLG being broadcast on live Cable/Satellite TV. Perhaps clips of it has made it on one of the various "tech" or "Gaming" news shows over the years, but I'm fairly sure that it isn't broadcast in this way.

 

Streaming it via Twitch.TV is the preferred method, with YouTube VOD's uploaded several hours or days later also being common.

 

The MLG Twitch streams are usually pretty high quality. I haven't caught any of this years ones live, but I saw some from last year live and it was good stuff.

If they dont do it on tv. Would there be any way to be able to get it on tv? Via streaming or something else?

Yes, as others have mentioned, one option is the Chromecast device, which streams from an Android Tablet to your TV via it's HDMI port. It's cheap ($35 or so USD) and small.

 

Other options include a set-top box such as a Roku. Basically anything that supports Twitch.TV.

 

Lastly you could use an HTPC or hook up any PC to the TV via HDMI and just stream the Twitch.TV site.
