We recently moved. With all the activity of getting the new house set up and getting the old house ready to sell (that's a whole other f'd up story), as well as going to work and things we do on a normal basis. I haven't had time to even set up the TV. The thing is, I haven't missed it at all. Once everything settles down I may want TV, but for now, nope.

I cut the cable cord long ago, but may drop it all together. Anyone else drop tv completely?

I do get Netflix for free, so that is always a possibility.

I have had tv on 24/7 forever especially in my mancave/ garage. About 2 months ago I needed to get some things out of attic and somehow popped the coaxial cable connection loose and lost the cable in there. Easy fix but at the same time we started watching Netflix and Amazon on my ps4 so I didn't worry about it and basically been binging Netflix series like crazy. I guess it's no different really for us as we never watched news or anything similar anyway but it is a nice break from regular tv.

My best friend moved to the hills over 12 years ago and has never had a TV since . He said he's too busy with projects and firewood to watch TV.

I realized recently that I only watch Motocross and Supercross on TV. I'm not even sure which channel is ABC. Guess IDGAF.

We use PlayStation VUE for TV and I do like having it even though we don't really watch anything on it except cooking shows mostly. Some history/science type stuff. It's usually just background noise for us. We primarily watch Netflix, Amazon Prime NBC Sports app for motocross etc and of course I have a massive 2,500 DVD movie collection all ripped and loaded into Kodi that I can watch at any time.

Its weird that my ps4 pro says not compatible with NBC sports app but a phone will play it? Makes no sense.

My brother has gone over 4 years without a TV and his new missus hasn't had one for about the same amount of time. They're selling their house and the agent asked that they get one for the photo's, so he went and got one that no longer works.
