TNT is the channel I keep it on. Reruns of Bones and Castle. I keep hoping to catch the beginning of Supernatural so I can watch those.

BBC America is another. Top Gear mostly.

Food Network, TBS, HGTV round out lots of the rest.

I'm tired of paying for cable. I don't even have it anymore at my second house (but get really good broadcast). Still have it at my main house, but I'm tired of dumping $150+ a month for internet and cable, just to watch 2 or 3 channels. If I had time to take the box back to the cable company, I would have cancelled. Maybe in a few weeks.

FoxNews
Discovery
History
Travel
National Geographic
Cartoon Network
Fox the regular one with cartoons on Sunday night

TBS, TNT, FX , and Spike occasionally have movies I watch. AMC has Walking Dead and occasionally movies. CNN for Anthony Bourdain's show. ESPN/ESPN 2/SEC channel for college football, and gosh I wish someone else would show it because I hate the worldwide leader. I would probably watch NBC Sports and those sort of channels more if they weren't hidden way up in the middle of the HBO type channels because I like most of the Olympic type sports that don't get much coverage on TV.

Myself:

PBS
Local and international news on ABC local channel
CNN
The Yes Network during baseball season

The wife:
Any channel that shows 70's era reruns or The Simpsons.


Between three locations with three cable connections (NJ - Optimum, SC-TWC, FL-Comcast), what a waste!!!

PBS. If we could get BBC and National Geographic, I'd watch them too and probably CNN if we got that. But I only watch PBS and pay almost $100 for it and internet. I would drop cable if I could still get internet for our two laptops without it.

I would do the same if I could find a way to get my favorite sports without ESPN. I don't know how to get around that problem, so I keep the cable and hundreds of channels that go basically unwatched.
