Saddest story about Breaking Bad - no spoilers here !

My son just moved back in with us to start a job today (YAY!)

So, last night he's flipping through the channels looking for AMC.

I'm about to tell him we only have basic cable, when up pops AMC.

AMC is on basic cable? I never knew that!

So, all these years, I could have be watching Breaking bad, the Walking Dead, Mad Men and Hell on Wheels?!?!

I live in a world all my own, I tell you!

When I'm visiting my Mom she says she has never seen the channels that I watch when I am there. She only watches 3 or 4 channels 2 of them being local plus the Weather Channel and that "fake news channel".


The basic cable I have through Time Warner Cable is only the local channels plus WGN. The next version is Standard cable which needs a box. I only have basic because they gave me a deal when I went to cancel basic that made it cheaper than having the Internet alone. I usually use my Roku to watch TV.

I get Nat Geo by mistake but there is nothing worth watching on there.
