A bill is being kicked around in congress that has a long shot of passing.
It'll allow you to only pay for the cable channels you want.
Or in others words, not pay for the channels ya don't want.
I'd take:
PBS
Fox News
History channel
Discovery/tlc
espn
speed
AMC used to be great, what happened??
Movie channels
They can keep the other 112.
What channels would you want?

Really, I don't care about TV too much. I like stupid sit coms on Fox and the morning news. I flip around and watch other junk, but really I just don't care anymore.

And they don't seem to run the really cool old movies anymore.
The thin man and Ronald Coleman stuff.
Always cool to watch any old movie where the lead character relies on a dog and Crown Royal.

I'll take the FOX news channel and all the channels that show do it your self shit. you can take the lifetime and we womans b.s. and flush em. every movie my wife watches on those damn channels is depressing. someone either get raped or murdered, kidnapped or gets cancer. They might be a victim of child abuse or alcoholism. whatever it is there are no happy movies on lifetime or LMN. Sorry for the rant but we can do without all the tragedy. :burningm:
