Doing won't give us the channels my wife wants, and the place we're moving into is too tree covered for satellite to work well (in addition to new not wanting to deal with it). Thanks for the suggestions though!

What does she usually watch? I got my MIL on Frndly TV, which doesn't carry ANY sports channels, so the costs are fairly low. All sorts of Hallmark, Lifetime, Game Show channels. Pretty sweet, honestly. https://try.frndlytv.com/

Regardless, good luck finding something.

Thanks, I'll check them out! She watches all sorts of junk reality TV on lots of cable channels and network dramas. She's also very tech technophobic so I'll likely end up paying to make sure she can access everything from a single interface. Otherwise I'll be called in to help her find her shows every night.

Heh, yea, I get that. I call it the mother in law test. My wife and I are fairly techy, but my MIL refuses to pay a cable bill and isn't satisfied with the shows available on the antenna. I've got an entire Emby setup for her to use, and have mostly trained her how to use Overseerr to request shows/movies for her to watch, too. It was a bit of a pain getting here, but it works well now.
