To the OP: you can get an antenna for the house and still watch TV the old fashioned way. It just won't be as reliable and the number of stations you can see with it are limited. But it'll work, and there's no cost beyond the initial purchase of the antenna and installation (if you don't install it yourself).


We have a Roku stick with YoutubeTV. We also have all the free channels loaded, such as SlingTV, RokuTV, tubiTV, PBS, and more. If you don't care about watching live network news and don't mind waiting to see your usual favorite weekly shows for a few more weeks after they air, you could probably get away with never paying for any of the streaming services. Or you could get all the freebies and just add something like CBS All Access for $6/month with commercials, and $10 for the commercial-free version. You only get all the CBS-owned programming with that though.
