Wouldn't be hard for me; might be for the wife.
We spent 5 years in England with little TV contact.
At the house, the 'TV Tax' was about $150 per color TV ( and you had to buy a British TV also ), so we did without most times.
(you can only watch BBC so long...)
Hardest part was no college football.
My sister-in-law taped (VHS) a lot of the Husker games and mailed them to us.
My teenage son took it the hardest. He actual had to talk to us sometimes!
We became closer as a family, so that was the plus side.
