There are very few shows that I actually follow. I don't like most of those "reality" shows (there are a couple of exceptions, like American Pickers and Pawn Stars when I just want something on in the background), but beyond that... I follow Breaking Bad, Dexter, How I Met Your Mother, and... yeah. That's it. Not enough there for me to justify $70/month, especially since I have no qualms downloading shows.
However, I can see myself watching stuff that I find randomly on Netflix on a rainy day that I wouldn't go out of my way to download. And I've been pleasantly surprised in the past by doing that, so here's hoping.
