Must See TV

I have officially had it with the TV situation at 13W. We have a widescreen HD flatscreen just hanging on the wall, mocking me while I watch analog broadcast on a crappy little TV with rabbit ears that never come in well enough to make it worthwhile. I miss cable. We get CBS, ABC, NBC, FOX, PBS, and 5 spanish channels. We don't even get My9 or the CW. And the reception is AWFUL and we have to fuck with the antenna constantly. I yearn for cable. I've gone a year without, and I can't take it anymore. I NEED CABLE.
I crave it. I dream about it at night.
I don't need HBO, or a DVR, or thousands of channels.
I just want ESPN and Comedy Central, and more importantly, I WILL NEVER HAVE TO USE THE RABBIT EARS AGAIN. Seriously, not having to put up with snow and static on every show will make me soooo happy.
The ability to tell teams apart during a football game will make Sundays more enjoyable. Not to mention the ability to watch MNF again.
And like I said, the HD TV is just mocking us. We can watch DVDs Blu-Ray, downloaded stuff, and PS3, but I want ordinary old TV on an extraordinary TV.
WE NEED CABLE!

Is it a matter of cable costs to turn on access? Or does the place not have cable installed?
