(to the tune of 'In the Year 2525')
I just replied to MBs post about "Outcast", and, how it didn't seem logical that I could watch it:
a) for FREE
b) BEFORE it was on the network who was paying for the production.
Do we see cable going bye-bye?
I think we'll always have the 4 networks, and maybe 3-5 'syndicated' channels.
What's YOUR opinion?
How many of us have Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, Roku, and so many others?
When I'm at work, I can stream my local news for free (the boss pays for Internet).
Dish still doesn't do 'a la cart'.
I really only watch (on a regular to semi-regular basis):
ABC (that's my choice for my local news, and my daughter lives for Thursday nights)
CW (Supernatural)
Freeform (mostly for "The Middle")
TNT (4 eps of Supernatural in morning, and, if I don't have to work & its during school time, I'll watch Bones)
Was semi-regular with Pivot, but they're barely showing any Buffy anymore
Up (7th Heaven & Gilmore Girls), but, I've mentioned I'd bought the who series of Gilmore Girls in 'll.
I know most of my family watches cooking shows & some DIY; I'll watch History channel from time to time. I'll watch PBS if Civil War is on (I wonder if PBS will show re-runs of Downton Abbey). Has PBS ever done the whole 'rerun' deal?
Wonder if one of the higher up sydicated channels will eventually buy the rights for reruns (CW)?
How many people think we'll still be watching 'traditional' TV by 2020? And, that's not even correct, because almost all of us remember 'free television' (granted, there were only about 6 channels).
