This is a constant battle in my household. The last TV I watched was the US presidential debates, and I would have listened to them on the radio instead if I didn't have the TV. I'd like to cut out my FiOS TV just because of the cost, but my wife won't let me. I wouldn't mind so much if I could choose 5-6 channels and pay $10 a month for them, but Verizon and Time Warner Cable both insist that I get all the junk channels like ESPN, Reverend Rick's Bible Thumper Channel, and channels in languages I'll never speak even if I live another 150 years. The Time Warner folks, back when I had TW cable TV, when I would complain about the newest increase so they could provide another sports channel couldn't understand that there are people who really don't care that 2 overweight people want push and shove each other and bang heads. American football is simply sumo wrestling played by a group of men, and there is little more boring than watching and listening.
