FYI- on the US TV topic, the last couple of times we have gone anywhere (including our recent stay at Orient Village apartment) we brought an Amazon Firestick, and have been able to watch anything we wanted- including our US TV (via an app on the Firestick) the only problem we ever had was that Hulu didn't work in French territories (We have since researched and think we can do it using a VPN- but it really wasn't that big of a problem) Just wanted to share!
