I can heartily recommend Acorn TV, for just $5.00/month. I just got my annual bill for $59.99. Acorn specializes in English and related TV shows. Great selection.

Thanks. I'll let my wife know. She likes those British shows.

I am not sure if you are seeing all of them.
If you scroll down there are topic bars with titles (mystery, drama, etc.). Click on "view all" underneath the title. You will see all programs tagged with the that topic title. Clicking on a program will then show you available series and episodes for that selection. For example if under "comedy" you click "view all" and then click on "Agatha Raisin" you will find the available series and episodes. Some shows may be listed in more than one category.

We also enjoy BritBox which is a BBC site at https://www.britbox.co.uk/
Navigating the site is a little bit different from Acorn but the are also many programs. There is little bit of overlap between them. A selection on BritBox however usually has different episodes from Acorn and vice versa.

We watch both. Hope this helps. YNY.

Thanks, Jerry. We currently have DISH but are disappointed with the programing, especially now that Homicide Hunter has concluded. The other thing I need to be able to get is certain sports networks in order to get Michigan football and basketball games....like ESPN, Fox Sports and Big Ten Network. However, DISH is WAY too expensive for what we get. I think we'll give both a 30 day trial.
