CABLE, I STAB AT THEE . . .

So I'm highly considering cancelling my Cable for
several reasons:

1) It's mostly crap
2) I'm rarely home enough to watch TV
3) TimeWarner just took out the two monopoly companies (Adelphiass and Comcunt)
and became a single giant beast of a monopoly. Boooo!!!
4) It's mostly crap

These are the shows I try to catch:
* SOPRANOS
* DEADWOOD
* CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM
* LUCKY LOUIE
* BATTLESTAR GALACTICA
* FAMILY GUY
* FUTURAMA (When it returns. Woo Hoo!)
* SIMPSONS
* VENTURE BROS
* DAILY SHOW
* THE COLBERT REPORT
* REAL TIME W/BILL MAHER
* LOST (TRex is into this... but she's watching the dvds)

Most of those you can find online or on dvd. Why am I giving them money each month? If only I could just pay for HBO.

Should I cancel my cable?
What shows do you guys watch?

since you work in film
you should be writing it off anyway..

Yes, but writing off doesn't mean free, sadly.

I didn't have cable for a year (well, satellite). I really missed the Daily Show. And I like Food Network. And I missed some things on Adult Swim. My kids missed all the cartoon channels.

I'm glad to have it back, but I agree there just isn't much on.
