There is so much good television being made that there’s no way we could watch it all and still work and live quasi-productive lives.
But there’s a small problem.
All this content is compartmentalized into different streaming services.
The go-to for years has been Netflix. But now there is so much competition and so many options. You probably need Netflix (see Stranger Things, The Crown, and others), but exploring your other options to cut the cord means finding the one that fits you and your lifestyle.
We’ve tried a lot of streaming services because we have specific tastes. Jess needs HGTV, the Food Network, and TBS. Mike needs the YES Network (the NFL Network and the MLB Network would be bonuses).
Oh, and we like things cheap.
Check out our reviews of each of the different streaming services below to see which ones passed the test and which ones failed (sometimes miserably).
