Mrs. George?

Nah. She hates that shit. She watches Forensic Files, and that kind of stuff.

Have I mentioned how much I miss having cable TV?

I wouldn't miss it if it went away. However, Mrs. George likes to channel-surf during commercials, so streaming is not an option for her.

Commercial-free streaming service.

Recommendation?

She looked at YouTube premium (or whatever it's called, but found the interface awkward. Also the services had signifiant gaps in the channels she wants. If service A had Channel X, Service B did not. But Service B had Channel Y, which is not available on Service A.

How about Netflix? (But I think you have that already?)

Yeah, we have Netflix, HULU, Amazon Prime - but those aren't amenable to surfing, which is what she wants. The ability to quickly switch from one channel to another during commercials, etc is important - to her.

[taiwan_girl]

Ah okay. That makes sense.

Youtube TV has that now.

I use it during the football, when an ad comes on I switch to the other game - just 1 click.

I guess that would also depend on your tv, remote and streaming app platform (I use XBox).
