DirecTV has went up over $10 on my bill this month. Haven’t had Fox in 3 years. They just did away with the golf channel. I’m finished with them. I know nothing about streaming TV. What’s the best service for streaming? I like pretty much all major sports. I also like comedies such as Seinfeld and The Office. Big On Patrol Live fan. Do you get any local news station streaming? My daughter says YouTube TV is pretty good but I have no clue.

I had directv satellite in Dallas. Moved here and went to streaming. Got a Roku box, ended up subscribing to directv streaming because it was the best option and cheaper than the satellite. ESPN+ is also a decent sports app that you can subscribe to off of the Roku, but it doesn’t have some of the big sports like NFL. I use it to watch virtually all of the stars games.

YouTube TV offers a 10-day free trial followed by a 15% discount for the next six months for new customers and it has your beloved locals.

I use YouTube TV and it’s fine. I also supplement it with Netflix and Paramount+

We use Fire stick, Netflix, YouTube Premium, My Outdoor TV and Victory Plus for Rangers games. More TV than we need. Costs about $55 a month.


I don’t miss direct tv.

Firestick, Sling (blue & orange) & over the air antenna here.

Decide what you want to watch first. If you like mainstream media for some weird reason, get YouTube tv. If not and just want to watch tv shows and movies, get Hulu and Netflix as a start. More content than you could consume between those two. Regular ol free YouTube has essentially an infinite amount of content too and mostly skippable ads. Plenty of news content, podcasts, etc… it’s just those “shows” are formatted differently due to the nature of the algorithm.

Seriously spend some time exploring YouTube. Just go looking for golf content first and see what you think.

Did someone bump a thread from 2015

Is it true Johnny Carson isn’t on the Tonight Show anymore?

I use roku,paramount+, and netflix. It’s good enough for me.

Netflix, prime, youtube TV, you tube,
Wife mixes in hulu and binges for a month then cancels. We do this with HBO after some series are completed.

Streaming is more work finding something to watch, but much of that work is due to all the options. And you will likely be done with any scheduled programming you normally watched.
Short quick videos are the future. Programming and entertainment is going to embrace this

I haven't watched tv in years

I'm not sure what all we have. We dumped uverse and went to youtube tv, we also did a free trial with Hulu and it was fine. We went with youtube because my wife wanted nfl ticket. We have paramount, we have Netflix, roku, max, Disney, apple, Amazon...... we don't seem to have a problem watching what we want.

TCM?
