Xfinity better watch out. If Ryan starts calling Vinny "Sookeh" i'll have no need for premium cable.

I know I do.  I haven't watched TV since The Walking Dead season 1 ended, other than for a few minutes here or there when the internet isn't working or something.

GiantBomb Reality TV Series. 

Check this out. All in one "house", Jersey Shore but with the GB crew playing videogames 24.... SEVEN!! All the best bits condensed into an hour episode every day.

Plus you get live streaming on JTV.

I haven't had cable in over 20+ years.  No need to have it really :/.
 
I was/am able to watch via rabbit ears (soon to be digital).  I usually just catch the news and various shows that interest me.  I do/did miss out on some great shows on Discovery and Spike, but that's ok, nowadays you can watch them streamed through their channels' websites.

The only thing I've been watching on TV lately are On Demand episodes of Breaking Bad.

Of course, at least those work properly. I still can't watch HD videos on this site properly without them fucking up.

My cable only really gets used for sports. If you take that out, then I easily spend way more time on Giant Bomb than cable. I may get more hours of enjoyment from Giant Bomb than I do actual video games. Subscription justified!

I watch maybe three hours of TV a week. I watch stuff on GB for at least twice as long as that.

Yeah, sports would probably be my only justification for getting a cable subscription, seeing as far as I know, they don't really stream those or have them archived up on the net, at least not yet.  I know where I live, CBC has some hockey shows streamed/archived, but I would like to watch some NBA games as well.

Cable TV's all like "hey man, can I borrow some milk to put on my cereal..." Giant Bomb's like a mighty stallion riding on the back of a giant eagle. And we're riding that mighty stallion. We're all riding that mighty stallion.

Another cord cutter here. I know I watch Giant Bomb through my Roku more than I do cable TV.

I'm addicted to the Quick Looks, even going so far as to track down the ones that come up when you Google for "funniest Giant Bomb Quick Looks".

I only ever watch TV if I'm staying with my family, otherwise the internet provides me all the video entertainment I need.

0h a year compared to 3-6 a day... Giantbomb wins hands down. Don't really see a need for cable, commercials piss me off and 99% of the time there is nothing worthwhile to watch.

My tv is in another room, and I never go into that room. So I know I watch more GB than I do cable.

I barely watches tv anymore. I just use it for games, movies and tv shows that I bought on dvd or blu-ray so I can watch them when I want.

I canceled cable years ago and I'm never looking back!

Seriously though, Giantbomb, Netflix, and Hulu supplement everything cable ever offered me.
