I've never paid for cable TV in my life.

The only time I've had cable TV was in college for two years in dorms, when I didn't pay for it.

I just signed up for NetFlix again so I can get my Cobra Kai fix for a month starting tomorrow though :D

My parents and my in-laws were the last of the mohicans as of last year still hanging onto cable. Even they saw the light before you, Stars SMH.

Haven’t had cable in years now. Currently have the Max/Disney/Hulu package, and my wife pays for Netflix.

I get Netflix and Apple TV free through my TMobile cell plan. My wife does a Disney, Hulu, espn+ package. We get paramount for free with our Walmart+. Then I just use my VPN and stream ppvs.

they gave me that shit on verizon too and i never used it. i think the whole idea of laying around watching tv and movies is boomer shit. there’s so much to do in this day and age.

As long as you like a delay in sports broadcasts, constantly having to view their ‘moment of zen’ bs, and not have Lakers/Doyers channels

i’m not even talking about youtube tv i mean just kicking back zoning out and enjoying the youtube algorithm or searching for whatever comes to mind. its endless. any sitcom from the beginning of time… can watch movies… content creators… documentaries… commercials new and old… list goes on

wtf i need cable tv… unless it’s impractical jokes but that shit is on youtube too.
