VOOM Goes BOOM - update Dish Drops all 15 VOOM Channels

[SmokeFan14]

Unless you're talking about that Euro-style racing. Nobody watches that crap, anyway. A LOT of those drivers are trying to join Nascar if that tells you anything. Look at the ratings, too. Back to the point, now..Dang-it Charlie/VOOM!

People need to take it easy on both sides. Variety is a good thing and choices are better. Right now there are 15 choices that are not on Dish Network. Everybody has its own taste for programming. Some like sports (like the speed hd fans). I couldn't careless for any sports (except baseball). Not my cup of tea. I have never watched any series on USA, or SPIKE. I started watching MONK and Psych and both had very stupid plots that I could not sit through them. The only thing I watched on Scif-Fi is BSG and the SG series. The other stuff I do not come near it. I never watch ABC FAMily, TDisney, Disney, Cartoon Network, CNN, Fox, Foxnews, CNBC, or the like. To me they are just a waste of time. My main concentration is movies. I feel that I lost 3 good movie channels. Right now my main viewing is concetrated to the premium channels which only show new movies on Saturday or Sunday night and the rest of the weeks are repeats of movies. HDnet Movies is nice and show about 10-15 movies which are new but the rest are repeat. I do not mind the repeat because sometimes I can catch some that I missed. But the rest many times is dull. Now we have a new channel which I will watch MGM. It has potential but in terms of movies it will not replace the three that I lost filmfest, vmovies, and monsters. Each had its uniqueness.

I do not blame you if you want speed hd. I never approached a speed hd thread and said that it was a waste because I did not watch it. I see some people doing that. Whenever anynone opens a thread about YES HD always someone or many jump into the discussion of economics about it but this is to supposed about choice and variety. If that is not the case, then we should all go for a-la carte but that is just a dream. In the meantime, discussions about this is better because I watch it and this is not because I don't are just fruitless. Each person has its owns viewing habits.

Reruns are a fact of TV life. But its a matter of how often the same things are rerun. Imagine if TNT ran the LotR movies on the same repeat schedule as KungFu did some of theirs.

That only happens at 4 or 5 tracks.. The rest are either circles or ovals. There are no straight lines in a circle or oval.

I stand corrected. Thank You.

yes, true. But by the same token I watched the LORD of the Rings on TNT and once and have never gone back to re-watch it and they have shown it a number of times. Glad you pick TNT because they have almost the same re-runs with ER (in SD), L&O as kungfuhd. It is a matter of taste. Would I rather watch what TNT has on day time which it is a zillions re-run of the same er and other series or watch the repeats on kunfu hd. I have an answered for you I watched neither because I found something better to watch. The more choices the better. The less choices the more frustrating it is to find something that interests me to watch.

I was only joking, though. I was not trying to be a smart---. I know NASCAR is considered a "redneck" sport- Even as a huge fan, I'll admit it's NOT a sport. More like a super-duper-fast activity. Thanks for having a sense of humor, Roo!

Not Rescue Me, and not the next season either from what I read.

Oh, and not The Shield either.

Interesting. Is the BD release of rescue Me season 3 in HD or just SD?

[Sean Mota]

I tried to watch Burn Notice and their re-runs where all SD. I do not know what was up with that.

Burn Notice is supposed to be HD in the upcoming new season.
