Keep in mind that all the alternatives to cable tv require access to the internet, so you are going to still be paying someone for internet access.
There are a number of streaming (that's the alternative to cable) providers that also include live television. Most are somewhere between $40 to $70 a month depending on what you choose.
Hulu gives you access to live tv and on demand movies for around $50 a month
Stream TV and Movies Live and Online | Hulu
DirectTV Now (not DirectTV, that's a satellite service) has live TV also for around $50 - $70 month depending on the package you choose. directvnow.com
Just search the internet for things "streaming tv" and you will find many others.
Almost all of these services are a tad flakey every now and then but not so much as to make you go back to cable tv.
Also all of these services has been raising rates so it's hard to say where their rates will be a year from not. All are month to month services that you can drop at any time, but that also means that you will not have a protected rate like you do with some cable providers.
In the end though these streams service are a good deal for now if you can find one with a package that has the programs you want to watch.
