I've been telling people lately that when my tv in the living room bites the dust, I am not replacing it. Lately, I've been watching most of my tv on my laptop. I haven't watched new programming in quite some time. It's all Netflix, Amazon Prime and Sling. I really don't need local channels except for local news and weather. All of the local stations stream their news. Don't need cable or satellite. Just decent Wi-Fi.
