Holidays almost over and nothing on tv

i'm looking for something to watch and while there is college bowl games and a few things here and there, not much to find. I mean I be searching all with the remote and can't nothing. I know the Holidays take over everything,but on demand ain't showing me much. why does it seem sometimes that back in the day with 3-4 channels and a couple of side channels that there was more to see and view than with hundreds of channels?? i know that reality tv is coming back and various shows are forthcoming. but as i speak now I just feel like renting a movie and chilling and avoiding flipping the channels. heck come to think about it a re run of Frosty the Snow Man would be hitting right about now.
