so what specialty channels CAN'T I get without cable?

If I look at Hulu Plus and others they tout episodes of The Office or whatever. We never watch that stuff.

In particular, my wife likes to watch the travel channels and cooking channels. She also likes to watch Spanish TV (that is actually over-the-air if I change my TV).

For me, it's mostly That Metal Show and stuff like Classic Albums. I'm sometimes watching certain other shows, like Hotel Impossible or the new one where they are camera spying on restaurant workers. I have been kinda watching Two Broke Girls.

Can we actually get that stuff without cable? Her channels especially? Without looking like what comes out of my dog when I walk him?

I wouldn't mind pulling up something through a menu; my wife probably less so. But she'd probably adapt if we could cut the cable bill.
