Cable companies are ripoffs and will not lower your bill anymore, even if you threaten to leave. Just get internet and a Roku or Fire TV, and stream whatever you want for a lot less. Or, put an antenna on your roof and aim it at the Orlando broadcast towers (about 113 degrees on the compass). I re-scanned for channels yesterday and picked up 72. All free, but you may not like half of them. But, depending on your location, you will get CBS, NBC, ABC, FOX, CW, PBS and a whole lot more. If you want cable channels, you can subscribe to a streaming service for $25 - $40. Cable TV as you know it today will be gone in a few years.
