I played musical TV's last weekend wall mounting two new TVs, moving an older but excellent Sony, and giving a couple away.
--> "We use a DVR/cable box for navigating "channels"." <--Here's what I'm setting up as we speak. The first two will be like yours. It could change but this is the plan right now:
- DVR/Cable Box on new 55" Samsung OLED TV on family room wall.
- DVR/Cable Box on new 43" Samsung QLED TV on master bedroom wall.
- Xfinity App on Roku for 46" Sony LCD TV on front bedroom wall.
- Xfinity App on Roku for 32" Panasonic LCD TV on quilting room wall.
- Xfinity App built-in on 75" Samsung QLED TV on basement wall.
The first two TV's listed above will keep the DVR/Cable Box but will additionally be able to stream our services including Netflix, AppleTV+, and Amazon Video as these newer smart TV's have a multitude of Apps built-in.
The Sony and Panasonic are older 'dumb TV's' and will require a Roku. These oldies still have outstanding picture quality.
The 75" Samsung in the basement will run built-in Apps for streaming services and the downloaded Xfinity App for CableTV. When we watch the big TV there's almost no 'channel hopping' going on as we use it mainly to view movies straight through or a sporting event.
By the number of TV's we have you'd think we spend all of our time watching! I watch mostly news and weather in the family room after dinner. We record late night TV hosts (Jimmy, Jimmy, and Stephen) and watch all three monologues in bed as our routine before falling asleep. The TV in the front bedroom is for guests. The 75" TV in the basement is mainly for movies and our NFL and NBA games when our teams are playing.

but distributed a bit differently. How decadent is that? ;)
For us, "family room" and "basement" are the same. Master bathroom Sony gets use most days as wifey gets ready for work/church.
Swings towards her knee space or shower stall.
Bathroom TV? Now that's decadent.
We were under the pergola behind our house when wifey was wondering about putting a TV out there to watch sports outside. It can be done but I had to explain to her that it wouldn't be the typical sub $1000 55" TV from Best Buy or Costco. And, we wouldn't use it but a few times a year.
That's her initial source of news in the morning for the hour or so she takes getting ready for work.
