I'd recommend going out and picking up an Apple TV box for $120 or whatever they're running these days. You'll get some content for free and you'll have a world of possibilities available 100% on-demand (no commercials and no self-promotional B.S.) Most content is available pretty inexpensively.

Once you put yourself totally in control of what you want to watch and when rather than being beholden to the terrible lineups offered on conventional cable or dish networks you'll find it hugely liberating and if you're like me, you'll realize how terrible most television programs really are and how nice it is to reclaim your life without wasting as much of it in front of the idiot box.

I cut the cord from pay television a few years ago and don't miss it one bit. I think I might watch 2-3 movies and maybe a a half dozen programs a month (usually documentaries or something like that) for a fraction of the cost of what cable would cost. I don't miss it one bit. YMMV. Good luck.
