We live in an area that you can’t get cable. So basically we get very few channels (depending upon the weather). Honestly we RARELY watch TV! Every once in a while we might flip on the news or Home make-over or something like that. We netflix movies, and certain shows and we don’t do that OFTEN anyway. The boys have lots of DVDs that we’ve collected, so they do have things to watch that we KNOW is ok and good for them.
Brian and I were talking about possibly getting some dish thing to get some channels, so that he could actually watch a football game this season with out watching it through the snow on our TV! It might be fun to have some of the channels that have old movies, or shows on, cooking, history, and there might be some cute stuff for kids. We just don’t want to get into a TV rut, where we are always watching or wanting to!
Right now we are pretty much doing FINE without it. Plus, we really need to figure if we can afford to even pay for cable. One more expense! Hmm….. TV OR NOT TO TV? THAT IS THE QUESTION!
🙂
I say no TV. You guys have done fine without it so why add it now.
I always wish that they would offer channels a la carte, so that you could just pay like a dollar per channel for the few that you want. We only watch 3 or 4 channels. Een then i hardly turn my tv on. If there is something I want to watch I find it online and watch on my computer. I have been thinking about getting rid of our dish, it seems like a waste of money when we do not watch all that much tv.
Well, we ended up getting dish through our phone company. So we got a good deal and can cancel anytime without fees!!! 🙂 So we’ll see how it goes. I know for sports it will for sure be nice for my three sports fans!
