Comedy Central HD Launched / New Sportsman Channel

[DodgerKing]

where did you hear Comedy Central HD is coming tomorrow? the only info I can find is its coming by the end of the month. Apparently Cablevision began adding it yesterday though.


Comedy Central Launches HDTV Network - 1/13/2009 9:52:00 AM - Multichannel News

It was supposed to launch today. It was delayed a week for some reason.

Till next week...like everyone originally though anyway.

I wasn't expecting it until next week anyway. I didn't even realize they were planning to launch it today until I read that post by satracer.

espnu is in the sports pak as are the regional sports nets.

To get out of market games RSNs you will need the sports pack. However, in market RSNs come with the Choice package. Use this link to determine what RSNs are considered in your market, which you would get with the Choice package.

Sorry for the minor hijack.


I know you guys get a few goodies out of market but it seems like come crunch time they black out the out of market stuff that's most interesting. I understand competing games (leagues) & networks protecting their respective investments but these things get blacked out when replayed at 3am most of the time. I have also seen out of market "day after' coverage & news conferences get blacked out when it seems completely irrelevant to any local RSN or network. What in general, do you guys find to be the "norm" with these out of market RSN's? It's the only package I don't have because I still like to read the foreign press/articles & can't understand the rhyme or reasoning of the black out rules.

Any thoughts or advise?

I was wondering, with the Premier pack, is the Sports Pack included in that as well or no?

Except that Comedy Central has stated that they will have 200 hours of HD available at launch with the upcoming seasons of South Park and Reno 911 being in HD. Also there are other Viacom owned channels that show HD. Spike TV and Nick HD show lots of HD.
