Amazon may be the debil, but prime has a ton of included content and cheap new releases.
If you have a spare pc, get a tv tuner card, throw in a 2 TB drive and use one of the many DVR software packages out there to record her shows. I used to do it and the picture quality was outstanding (did it more as a hobby though, working for Cox has its benefits).
FWIW, we bought a Magnavox DVR a few years ago for around $200 at Walmart. Works with antenna, cable, or whatever. Not sure whether they're still available or not.
Just a thought.

We cut cable two years ago. The DVR was what I missed the most. For network shows that we miss now I have a google chromecast and go to the network websites on my laptop and cast the episodes we missed to the TV. We still have to watch the commercials, but we can get the shows. Without cable you will run a week behind to view episodes that way.
I finally went to just AT&T internet when I moved into an apartment a year ago. I use DirecTV Now and because I have both, AT&T waives the $30 fee for totally unlimited data for me. I have what they call very high bit rate DSL (VDSL) at 75 Mbps. I got an internet deal for upgrading from the baseline 50 Mbps rate, so my internet is $50/mo and my DirecTV Now (the Live a Little package with over 60 channels) is $40/mo. I use Walmart Family Mobile for phone service, since I get 1/3 off for being a Walmart associate.
3 Roku devices, sling, Netflix and amazon Prime plus an antenna in the attic gets a bunch of stuff. Still have Cox for Internet, but that cable tv stuff is for da boids. My fire stick is all whacked out; I can re-program it but after a hard day of doing very little if any “productive work”...it finds itself on the agenda for tomorrow. Again.

Mare's sweat... Ha!
Hilarious.
Get a jail broke Fire stick. Everything is free as long as you have a good wifi signal.
Haven't had cable TV in years. I use an Apple TV with Netflix and Hulu and an indoor antenna for the local channels. Haven't missed cable one bit! As mentioned above, there's a ton of content on YouTube, especially documentaries.
