How to spend an evening living alone

I moved to Hawaii from New York a few months ago, and I often go out during the day, but I have free time at night when I live alone.
Is there any place where I can watch Japanese-language TV, etc., like a hotel lobby or a public facility?

Or, are there any DVD rental stores that sell Japanese-language TV dramas? I really want to watch the upcoming NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen and Taiga Drama, so please let me know if there is somewhere I can watch TV Japan.
I will eventually try to have online Japanese TV available at my residence, but I am not able to go that far at this time,
Thank you very much.

I think KIKU is the best free Japanese language broadcasting in Hawaii.
Japanese-language dramas are 1-2 hours a day, but I'm happy with the Japanese experience.

If you live in an area where you can pick up a digital TV signal,
you can watch TV with an inexpensive indoor antenna, although it depends on the orientation of your room.
I am in the McCully ・ Moiliili area and can watch with an indoor antenna.

I hope this helps.

Koji
Thank you.
I used to enjoy Japanese dramas on KIKU TV when I lived in a hotel a few months ago,
then after I moved to a condo in Ala Moana, I bought an indoor antenna and connected it to my TV, but I can't watch Japanese broadcasts on KIKU TV. There are a lot of high-rise buildings in this area, so you might need to put the antenna closer to the window or something. I will try.
