Here, there's no way I can do without cable because it's where all the live sports are at. In the States, the free TV airs just about all the Rams/Cardinals games in my area, so I could quite happily live wihout it there.

Like everyone else though, internet is a must.

Review: Life Without Satellite TV Not Worth Savings

PHILADELPHIA — It's Day One of a weeklong experiment to see if I could live without satellite TV.

That means I have to wait a day before I can watch the season ender of "Heroes" to learn whether Hiro Nakamura, trapped in time 16 years ago, can escape to the present and destroy a formula that, in the wrong hands, would plunge the world into chaos.

The show will start to be available online a day after its Monday evening broadcast on NBC.

Bummer.

I think I would go crazy. You're a very brave person :P

"Crazy" is a state of mind. :bonk:

I am of the "no TV" clan.

Like everything, it's an adjustment.

Your mind (and psyche) will thank you for it.

Ha!
