Good move. I cut the cord to TV over 20 years ago. I have a VHS and DVD collection that would take several years to view them all. Netflix lets me pick and choose and reject whatever I want. Who needs broadcast stations!

When you get old enough, you learn that being a few years behind the curve is OK, more convenient, cheaper, and pre-screened (much of the crud has fallen away, leaving a pretty good pile to choose from) - giving you endless entertainment dirt cheap.

I think I probably have a few years worth too and I love repeat viewing. There are some great deals out there online for DVDs. I just watched (over a few weeks) a season of a show from the 50s called Cheyenne. Each episode was about fifty minutes with good acting, scenery and plot. Like a mini movie. Who needs new shows?
