It's all in the interpretation. And I sort of get Eric's response. Although I think you are being misinterpreted and have the best of intentions. Your sense of humor may be better received by some than others. Ha Ha Ha.
Here's my take. Most cable packages offer the "DVR" function. So you can watch Rachel or Anderson anytime you want.…

Here's my take. Most cable packages offer the "DVR" function. So you can watch Rachel or Anderson anytime you want. And to each his own.
Personally, I am one of the millions who hates Comcast ("Xfinity") with such a passion that there are no words for it. We switched to Fios (internet only) sometime ago. $50 a month for 300 mbps. Thrilled. Want live stupid TV? The ROKU app is adding free channels every week, it seems.
But again, to each his own. We don't watch ANY TV news or commentary. When we do tune in, we look at each other and just say "yup, I knew that, yes, I read that this morning, yup, thanks, next..." We are readers of news. By 10:00 am we both know everything to know. As to the opinionating on cable...meh. I have my own opinions and if I need new ones, I find them right here. And they are as relevant and cogent as anything on a large flat screen from people wearing too much makeup. 4K HDR backlit OLED screens are more revealing than I need. "Look at those wrinkles on him!"
Someday we should talk about the streaming channel scams. How many to watch and how many to pay for. Without vigilance, the total TV bill can easily meet or exceed the cost of cable. The good news is that we all have choices. You, me, Eric and everyone else. It just takes more energy and time to pick what's best for our homes. Oy.
Well said. The latest streaming kerfuffle is Amazon. Now, in addition to Prime there is Prime Video for which I pay "Prime" monthly fees and an additional fee for packaged items such as PBS Masterpiece. There are older movies available on Prime subscription, but newer movies are billed separately, i.e. Avatar the Way of Water is $20.00!! Every time arch capitalist Jeff Bezos goes up in his rocket ship I hope he stays there. Likewise for Elon Musk, but for different reasons.
Will,
