Roku- @$100 OR Amazon Firestick (@ $40.00) (fewer free channels) (One-tie purchase)

Amazon Prime (bonus, Amazon Prme videos and TV) $99.00/year

Netflix @$12.00/month

Hulu @$12.00/month

If you like pay channels, they're available for @ $10.00/month through Amazon

or if you need sports channels, you can get Sling TV for @ $20/month.

FAR, far less expensive than what you're paying. You watch TV when you want, when it fits your schedule. You can still pull in local channels through a Leaf antenna (@ $60.00, sometimes on sale at Microcenter) and get the news.

I was recently notified by Netflix that they're in raising my monthly fee by another dollar. I'm not one who spends money for something unless I really see value in it. While still fairly inexpensive I realized that I don't watch Netflix much and I needed to start taking advantage of the service I'm paying for, sooo... I brought up Netflix on my iPad and saw The Last Kingdom. It looked interesting enough so I watched the first Episode of Season 1. Really enjoyed it so I'll be watching all of the rest as time permits.

ETA: As TheGrey pointed out it would probably be helpful to say I'm referring to "Longmire".

Either I got used to the new way of doing the show or it was an anomaly of the first episode. Everything seems back to normal. I was worried.

Late comer to “Longmire”. Binge watched the first five seasons over a two week period. Really enjoyed seasons 1 & 2, I felt the rest were ok. I’ve watched the first 3 episodes of 6, I’ll stick through to see how it’s wrapped up. Haven’t read any of the books but have enjoyed this series. Not as good as “Justified” but I like a contemporary western.

Started watching Godless on Netflix last night-seems like a decent western.

The current base model Roku is only $40 and is freaking awesome (just make sure you get the model 3900, not the 3700 because they're often sold on the same SKU but the 3900 is the new quad core model wheras the older 3700 is only dual core).

Good to know! We bought ours two or three years ago (the Roku box 3) and it was about $100. :) Glad to hear they're dropping in price.
