I received cable TV, shall I say, by accident (NOT theft of service!), for about 1-1/2 years. Then the cable TV provider figured out they had screwed up and put a block on the cable (I still have cable for high speed internet at home). Well, I had 2 choices:
1. Get the antenna hooked back up
2. Watch no TV
I'm to lazy, apathetic, and uninspired to do the first, so we haven't had much TV to speak of for about a month now. We still get the low-end broadcast channels (2-9) sorta-ok, but even PBS on channel 9 has been weird lately.
So I chose #2. It took a week to get used to it. Now I like it. And it sets a good example for our son.

(PS: I only ever watched PBS, TLC, and DSC anyway).
