No streaming services.
FXHD * FNCHD * CMT * SyFy * FOODHD * HGTVD
Maybe a few more, but we don’t watch much T.V.
We have Comcast and I had to reset the Wi-Fi twice while trying to do this response. The service is so bad we are lucky to see anything.
Check into “Astound by Wave”. Been with them since 2003 and they are great!
Same here …. been with Astound /Wave for about the same amount of time.
Check with Comcast. Your equipment may be old and need to be replaced for free.
YouTube
usually Fox Business, TvLand (Everybody Loves Raymond), and around holidays, Food Network, all as background more than actually watching.
My guess would be kind considerate people that can afford a little extra for what they want. Have a wonderful day.
“The French Chef” channel on Pluto is very entertaining. There is a whole channel devoted to Julie Child, but “The French Chef” episodes are my favorites.
I used to watch her on PBS in the 60s or 70s and hadn’t noticed that she would sweep every thing off the counter onto the floor with her hand when she moved from one dish to another. Must have been a mess to clean up afterwards.
Or, that she poured salt into her hand to measure it, sometimes saying what looked like a tablespoon of salt was actually more like two tablespoons. In fact, she rarely measured anything and always left half the contents she had mixed up completely unused in the bowl then she was all done. Some of her dishes looked like slop by the time it made it to the table.
Just can’t stand though to watch her carve up a raw chicken or pat a dead baby pig on the butt. Actually “hurts my feelings.” I compare those old episodes to “America”s Test Kitchen” where the cooks are so precise they sometimes get out a ruler or a scale to measure the ingredients and their work surfaces are positively immaculate. Worlds apart.
Funny you should say that. We were watching Julia’s first shows last night. We laughed while she schlepped ingredients, missing the pan and globbing butter and cream onto potatoes.
Though I will say, there might have been a garbage pail in the vicinity where she flung the counter crumbs. We tried to guess which country she was from. Pasadena, Ca. Then Massachusetts. Home girl.
@Justifiable languor. I noticed that, too. Julia was definitely in the “Butter makes it better” school of thought. Measure butter? Not a chance!
I’ve had many streaming services over the years (cut the cable in 2013). But due to the “pandemic” some of them had stale content or not enough keep the subscription. You might think they might give a discount in that case but NO they actually raised fees maybe because now the execs wanted better pay so they could build a fancy doomsday bunker.
I don’t have any particular favorite of the services I’ve kept. Like many I have Amazon Prime and watch a lot of shows there. I have Comcast for Internet (I use an Ethernet connection to the “gateway”) and watch a few shows and movies on Peacock with ads with are sparse. I also have AppleTV+ and Shudder because they are both inexpensive and have some good content.
Netflix and Hulu Live
None. No streaming no cable. Haven’t watched TV in three years and don’t miss it a bit.
Good for you. I too have cut way down on TV time and consequentlty have accomplished many things I would not have otherwise done, like reading Atlas Shrugged, which I thoroughly enjoyed.
Comcast – no streaming
I have FUBO because I like their sports package.
I also have Disney+ for Marvel and Star Wars content and I just signed up for Amazon Prime due to the Rings of Power series.
.
YouTube… historical documentaries, some movies, and influencer channels related to home, auto, and hobby DIYs.
No TV.
No streaming service.
For me, life is much better without being adicted to television.
If you watch anything watch Tucker Carlson on Fox at 5pm. Unless you don’t care about what is going on in politics and the country. Beyond a doubt the best show on TV for those subjects.
Yes, We watch Tucker.
Also an admitted liar.

Concord Resident NPR the voice of the democrat party paid for by the citizens of the US. Watch Tucker and see if you can catch him in a lie. You may get your eyes opened up.
By faaarrr “The Best.” Tucker never fails to impress me. He is so “Real”
I strongly recommend his show to everyone that want’s the accurate discussions of interesting and critical subjects. His guests are always so interesting and credible.
What is this “TV” of which you speak?
Since ATT that hates the right and has no white employees discontinued OAN,I now stream it on a lapptop.The only time Ive ever streamed.
No streaming services. Hard to beat YouTube TV. I think we pay around $60 a month. No premium channels. Super fast wifi with AT&T. Think we pay $80 a month for it.
For classic tv – Pluto
For movies, bingin’ & non-commercial – Netflix
For repairs – YouTube
