10 different channels? Heck, I'd have a hard time thinking of 10 different TV shows for the whole family.

I'd say:

1) Disney - So the kids could watch Phineas and Ferb
2) Ellen - Whatever network Ellen is on because my wife likes her show
3) PBS - Newshour
4) Science - I like How It's Made
5) Food - My wife likes the food shows

That's all I can think of. I guess I'd throw in the other major networks and ESPN for guests and occasional college football games.

We don't do the Weather Channel - we have weather.com and accuweather.com for that. We don't do the financial or news channels - we have WSJ.com and other websites for that.

My wife might add in E! or IFC. We lost both of those when we reduced our satellite package last year. She enjoyed them, but they weren't worth the extra cost to her.

 

[mill4023]

CBS - Survivor, Amazing Race
ABC - Lost
NBC - 30 Rock, The Office
Fox - 24, Family Guy
Bravo - Top Chef
The Disney Channel
The Military Channel
Food Network
Showtime - Dexter
HBO - They always have quality original programs, and The Pacific looks amazing.

 

[Sorsha]

My top ten (but only mine, the kids would have their own list, as would the DH):

1. The Weather Channel
2. Food Network
3. The Travel Channel
4. HGTV
5. Discovery
6. Boomerang (I am a classic-cartoon junkie)
7. ABC (for Dancing with the Stars)
8. CBS (for Survivor and Amazing Race)
9. TVLand (I am also an old-sitcom junkie)
10. The History Channel

 

[Metsfan520]

In no particular order:

ESPN
CBS
NBC
ABC
USA
TNT
SNY
HBO
Food Network
our local weather/traffic channel, channel 61. It's part of our cable system. It's much more accurate, and I only have to wait 2 minutes to get the weather.

 

[Pigeon]

We don't have or want cable and watch little TV.

I'd be good with just PBS and CBS (CSI and the Mentalist are about all the network TV we watch).
