Special Mention: Big4 broadcasters by mom, but I don't watch them at all.

Ever since the addition of our local OTA's sub-channel offerings, dear old Mom is found on one of those something like 50%+ of the time. They have the old shows she just loves. It is making me question my subscription level. I already downgraded, but now I feel that if we ever had to cut the cord mom would be happy with OTA sub-channels and other programming to her liking on Netflix such as the old TV shows there, too. I'm the one who would miss History and Science and AHC and even kooky American Destination. Also Smithsonian has a few good ones two along with "Adam" on TrueTV. As it is I have not downgraded further ONLY because of TWO channels that I and no one else watches. Hmm. down the line I might downgrade further for the loss of just 2 channels, but I'll wait and see.

BTW, History is becoming less and less about HISTORY with each of these stupid reality shows. I have been tuning in less and less and tuning more into the rotten SD PQ of AHC for its historical programming. I don't give a &%)^ about Alone and those idiots Selected to endure military training and even Pawn Stars is less about the "antique." Even Ancient Aliens is more in line with "History" than the shows I've mentioned above. One can learn about ancient cultures and mythology and lost biblical texts and ancient traditions from one episode of Ancient Aliens, and often from legitimate scholars--of course Giorgio and Company bring in the Ancient Alien twist at the end of thoughts--but right up before that was legitimate HISTORY. That is pretty sad when Ancient Aliens has more historical content than almost any other regularly scheduled TV show on HISTORY.

Here I would say that our top 10 is:
CBS
ABC
NBC
Fox
PBS
The CW
Netflix
Spike
TV Land
Comedy Central

As you can see, we're watching our local channels the most, by far, so if I turned off my Dish feed, I certainly could survive using just the OTA tuner, but I would definitely miss my DVR and the multiple tuners. Even though we have lots of OTA sub-channels, such as Decades, Laff, ME-TV, Cozi, etc. we seldom watch any of them.
 
In order:

CBS
ABC
NBCSN
Netflix
FX
ESPN
ESPN2
FS1
HBO Now
TNT
TBS
FSMW
MLB.TV streaming
NHLTV streaming
NBA Full Court streaming

Since getting mine, my viewing habits have changed ...
NBC - SVU, Chicago Fire, PD, Med, SNL, Today (Voice, AGT in season)Nightly News, NFL
CBS - Big Bang, Code Black, Pure Genius, Great Indoors (Survivor in season)CBS Sunday Morning, NFL
Fox - Lethal Weapon, The Mick, Lucifer, Rosewood, NFL

Honorable Mention Comet, GetTV, H&I
Thinking of cutting cord from Dish, keeping DIRECTV ...
 
If one streaming service had MLB Network, NHL Network and NBA TV, as well as a DVR, I'd drop cable, buy a Roamio and make that the way to go. But no streaming service has all those.
