We dumped TV in 1997. But we found out about a year ago that our amazon prime membership gave us free videos, and our TV we bought at about the same time includes a ton of streaming services, including Amazon prime, via our wi-fi router.

We leapfrogged cable. We now watch old TV shows, which we love, many movies from several decades, etc. And it is all on demand. Cable seems downright quaint now.

Over that air, broadcast TV there’s some good watching if you enjoy more the classic TV stuff. Depends on where you live, though, for the channel line up. I get a couple dozen channels, with about 6 of them showing classic TV/films.

But yeah, the streaming choices are pretty good. I tried Amazon Prime once - I thought you could watch anything they had - smorgasbord-style, but then I got charged for watching an obscure 70s movie, so I unsubscribed.
