I've been heavily thinking of reducing the number of shows I get from my cable company for the specific reason that channels like planet green, history, discovery, science all show a bunch of bullshit that repeats at all hours. Not that I watch TV much but when I do I try and find something interesting and perhaps even educational but it so rarely happens. More often than not I end up turning on BBC anymore.

Besides that any shows that I watch I can find on the internet at 1080p via two dozen streaming websites. I really don't see the use of having cable at all anymore accept for the few shows I really like to watch when they hit, like some of HBO's programming, etc.

US TV just blows chunks anymore. It's just so damn mindless. The acting and writing is shit in most US shows and 3/4 of the channels just repeat the same crap 24/7.
