Each time Brighthouse's spokesperson, Sara Brady has been in the Orlando Sentinal, new channels have been mentioned for Februray.
I'm aware of the new Sports channels in March...
Anyone have any idea what these new channels might be for this month?

My money is on whatever channels Tampa has that we don't.... BravoHD?
Other channels I would guess are the VIACOM channels (Comedy Central, Cartoon, Spike, Nick), along with ESPN-NEWS-HD, Lifetime, and FOX-NEWS.

Well...cheers for BravoHD. I do not watch Lifetime nor CNBC.
You mention 7 to 10 non HD channels...ideas on what they could possibly be?
I was hoping we would pick up MAX HD, in addition to Bravo, since Tampa Bay has it already.

It will be nice to finally see the ravishing Ms Padma Lakshmi in HD on Top Chef. If we get the channel before the competition is up.

+1...would love to see Padma in HD...
Interesting channel choice for BHN to add. I'm sure we all could come up with a better list for them to add both, standard and HD.

we've had bravo hd for over a year and i've never seen any shows in hd!
JonOrlando
02-11-2009, 07:10 PM
So, receive an email from BHN today, announcing 14 channels in 14 days, starting Feb 20th.
States, to go the main website for more details and to see what's coming. I've searched and found nothing. Any of you take the time to search and find anything?

Just a note all of the channels except Bravo and Lifetime will be offered via SDV. So you need a cable box to get them.

just looking on my cable guide it appears LIFETIME movie hd IS SLATE TO be the first channel released on friday out of the 14 channels
JonOrlando
02-20-2009, 06:47 PM
Yeah...Lifetime hit this afternoon at noon....
Looks like BravoHD is tomorrow 2/21 at noon. Look like will get to Padma in HD for the season finale for Top Chef :)
Received an email from BHN today announcing the channels, that include 7 in HD...do those include the previous mentioned sports channels, you think?
chi-town_N_orlando
02-21-2009, 08:31 PM

I guess its appropriate the gospel music channel was added on Sunday. I wonder how many customers actually watch this?

What's the channel number in Brevard. I'll watch it (depending what is on...Southern gospel, yeah!)

The Gospel Music Channel is on ch. 168 in Brevard. Golf Channel HD launched today, just in time for Tiger's comeback!

I wish Golf Channel HD would launch in time for Tiger's comeback but I'm in Brevard also and the channel says coming 3/2. We did get MLB HD today though.

This morning I'm more hopeful that today we are getting the Golf Channel HD. The list that was posted earlier on this thread had been 5 for 5 on the order of the new channels. The guide lists Golf Channel HD as coming 3/2 but the channel itself now says preview at noon today. On the website it mentions, it says today is Golf Channel HD. Hopefully I'll be watching Tiger in HD this afternoon.

I caught a few minutes of Tiger playing today in HD. Nice.
Dish better get a move on if my neighbors have MLB HD now...I used to rub it in their face about how many more HD channels I had, now they are getting them. Oh well, at least I had them a year before :)

dish doesn't have a contract with mlb extra innings so they can not carry mlb network. carrying the network was part of the extra innings deal!
