    Disney / ESPN Back Up!

    I am not a subscriber of Dish. But, certainly, I hope there will be no more problems for subscribers. This is also with respect for people who subscribe to any service.

    Disney Networks Dispute Recitifed

    To force the issue and put Dish, more so than Walt Disney Television, at the disadvantage. They need each other. So, something like this cannot, realistically, go on for long; especially not in this period.

    DIRECTV says it will go all HD in 2016 , what about DISH?

    I took that to mean that every channel that is in standard definition would be brought in in high definition. (This would apply to standard definition-carried channels that are available in high definition.) I don't think it's going to happen. But, I think DirecTV will get a lot of channels...

    Senior Discount?

    Numerous companies are now disregarding senior discount prices. It's as if they figure their prices are low enough.

    Soap Channel R.I.P 1/1/14

    There are only four broadcast network soaps remaining: ABC's General Hospital, CBS's The Bold and the Beautiful and The Young and the Restless, and NBC's Days of Our Lives. There have been cancellations that are numerous from the past, say, five years. Before that, they were gradually...

    Soap Channel R.I.P 1/1/14

    ABC/Disney launched Disney Junior in 2012. The intent was to replace SOAPnet with Disney Junior. What happened was that it took some time to get providers on board to add Disney Junior to their channel lineups. So, ABC/Disney kept SOAPnet operating with loops. The timing is now there for SOAPnet...

    G4 gone: SoapNet and G4 ceasing operations/distribution soon?

    In addition to Oxygen essentially carrying female-targeted programming, and it being apparently more successful than Style, that helped make the decision easier.

    G4 gone: SoapNet and G4 ceasing operations/distribution soon?

    I found out that, effective Oct. 28, 2013, ABC News Now is no more. It has been replaced by Fusion. Here is information from Wikipedia.org @ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ABC_News_Now :

    G4 gone: SoapNet and G4 ceasing operations/distribution soon?

    Comcast/NBCUniveral may want to push for Revolt, the new programmer that is a joint venture between the company and Sean Combs. Dish Network and DirecTV would be two providers Comcast/NBCUniversal and Sean Combs should want access. ABC/Disney should push for Fusion, from ABC and Univision. It...

    How much is Charlie worth?

    ^ That is what I figure to be the point of this thread.

    How much is Charlie worth?

    I think the point of this is that Charlie Ergen and Dish Network are penny wise pound foolish with some contractual negotiations for programming, which resulted in a few losses (for however long they lasted), and that no sympathy should be given to Ergen and/or Dish Network. That subscribers of...

    DISH Reaches Long Term Agreement with DISNEY / ESPN / ABC

    Isn't it strange that reports like these seem never to mention high definition? I predict that Dish Network will also restore the HD it used to carry from Disney/ABC programmers. (Thank you, Scott!)

    DISH Drops AMC Networks (AMC Back on DISH channel 131)

    DirecTV sub here. I haven't been back to this topic in a while. I want to know: Can Dish Network win this dispute over AMC Networks as DirecTV did over Viacom?

    DISH Drops AMC Networks (AMC Back on DISH channel 131)

    DirecTV sub here. I'm sorry Dish Network customers are being put through this. Hope it doesn't take long, and that these AMC Networks return to the lineup A.S.A.P. And, thanks to Dish having more non-premium channels in high definition, I hope you Dish subscribers get all the AMC Networks in HD...

    Half price Showtime

    DirecTV subscriber here. Is this for Showtime, in general, or is it for Dish Network subscribers to get Showtime at that deal?

    New Channels

    Just to tick off AMC Networks . . . . . Just to tick off AMC Networks, I would do the following (if AMC, We TV, IFC, Sundance, and Fuse get dropped): AMC HD: replace with Fox Movie Channel HD We TV: replace with Oxygen HD IFC: replace with FEARnet HD Sundance Channel: replace with...

    MLB Strike Zone to Launch

    Scott, Thanks. (And I hope you have a good vacation.) I am sorry MLB Extra Innings seasonal package was a loss for Dish Network.

    MLB Strike Zone to Launch

    I'm with DirecTV. But I want to ask: Does any of the Dish Network subscribers think that, in coming years, the MLB Extra Innings seasonal package will be available on Dish?

    disney and espn hd updates?

    I never the story on why Dish Network lost HD feeds of ABC/Disney programming: ABC Family, Disney Channel, whichever ones from ESPN. Has it been a good couple years?

    Channel Moves

    Has Dish Network ever had a restructuring of the entire numbered channel lineup?

    BBC World News TV Channel

    Comcast, in numerous markets, carries BBC World News. Dish Network and DirecTV can do the same.

    SHORTS-HD RIP

    That would be an excellent move. I have DirecTV. And I give credit to Dish Network for carrying Epix HD while DirecTV does not. That's smart. And if Dish Network were to go for FEARnet HD, it would be big bonus for that company.

    SHORTS-HD RIP

    You stated what I am thinking. (Thanks.)
