We usually have a few shows that we watch, but it's getting to the point where 90% or more of what we watch comes from Netflix/Hulu.
We're moving over the next few weeks, and we're heavily leaning towards just turning off the cable service and sticking with only internet. It just feels like a waste of money. |

I pay for Netflix and the occasional show on iTunes or Bluray, and I watch the Bengals OTA.
That's about it. I stopped watching the news about 2008. |

I rock the rabbit ears. Never paid for TV. Many cable channels offer their shows for free streaming via their website next day.
Big shows like GOT, Breaking Bad, etc, I've always known someone who pays for cable who has big watch parties. Price of admission is usually beer, appetizers, chips, buns, etc. No different than a weekend BBQ. Just bring something to the party. |

I don't recall when there's been more fun stuff on tv. Rome, Deadwood, Sparticus, GOT, Penny Dreadful, True Detective, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, A.D. the Bible Continues, The Bates Motel, Supernatural, Falling Skies, The Waling Dead, Boardwalk Empire, The Wire, Ray Donavan, American Horror Story, Banshee, The Knick, Strikeback. etc...
Yes, I'd like not to have the bill, but to be honest, we don't go out to the movies hardly ever anymore. Sort of pays for itself when you look at it that way. Then there's Netfilx, Amazon Prime, Roku, Hulu, Chromecast, and Youtube. Take my money already. |

Broadcast and cable are dead. They just amassed a large enough pool of money to stay afloat until they perfect how to fuck you over with their internet pricing structure.

Nope. Hell, I don't even own a TV.
When I go over to friends houses we sometimes watch TV and it consists mostly of scrolling through the guide screen when commercials are on (which is nearly constantly). |

not really....there are a couple of shows I'll do some marathon watching of mid season or post season finale, but thats about it.
Movies on television? Forget it..they are so heavily edited it seems that I just don't see the point. Used to watch tons of television also, and would have have it on in the background when I came home from work but these days i don't do that. I prefer peace and quiet. |
