Was noticing I had CMDY last night. Is it a preview week for it, or are they getting ready to light it up HD

Same here with the absolute pacakge. Best move I ever made!
BTW - The same is true with CMT SD being available in Absolute (being discussed here as well: http://www.satelliteguys.us/dish-network-forum/168920-absolute-comedy-central.html)
Perhaps it's a reward for being an early adapter
. I'd really like to find some exact numbers on how many HD Absolute subs are still out there. Because, apart from Sat Guys members; I don't think many people EVER heard of that pack.Once again, I apologize for my pessimism; but us Turbo subscibers should not get too excited yet. Just because we get the SD version, does not mean we will get the HD version. Dish already set that example with Fox News. I don't really want Fox News, but I switched to Turbo for HD channels, not SD.
Yea, just stab me with a stick harder by telling me exactly how much the HD absolute package costs. I'm paying almost 50 bucks a month to be screwed over as a TurboHD Silver still without local HD locals. And I don't get the Fox News HD channels which from my understanding HD absolute package subs get. 
Nope, Absolute doesn't get that channel either. That channel as well as Fox Business HD are only available to those who also sub to SD progamming, go figure. They SAY they will evaluate it based on customer request, but we'll see......And I don't get the Fox News HD channels which from my understanding HD absolute package subs get.

Absolute +2 premiums (HBO/show) + locals + tax no phoneline charge etc = 88 a month
It's a mix right now, but there are surprises as many of the movies they are showing are HD... anything new, Larry the Cable Guy Roast for example or the Craig Ferguson Stand up are HD and look great!

I think I pay like 42 or 43 a month for HD absolute with HD locals on one 722. Plus there were a few bonuses/refunds when I signed up.
Couldn't pass it up... DirecTV and Cox Cable couldn't touch it price wise and didn't have the features I liked about the 722. I have basic cable too, that feeds the other 3 or 4 TVs. I combined the cable TV with the 2 modulated TV1 and TV2 feeds form the DVR. So I can go in any room and watch either "side" of the DVR. The kids love it. I just need to pick up 2 more UHF remotes so I can stop hunting down the TV2 remote when I want to watching in my bedroom.
I just accidentally ran into in on dishnetwork.com when I was messing around with the packages. I don't think it was up very long as an option - so I'm glad I committed to it while it was available. THen I found this site about 3 months later when I couldn't figure out which channels I should expect to keep/get.Perhaps it's a reward for being an early adapter
If you want the HD Absolute package, you just simply have to have sign up for it before September (2008 that is). Sorry.
Hey, I'd be thrilled just to get it in SD (since I don't have it at all right now in HD absolute).
I'm assuming that you actually have HD Absolute, so do you have that channel locked out of the list?
The two new ones are:
Channel 107 Comedy Central
Channel 166 CMT
That would be a bummer if you didn't get them and you have Absolute.
Whoa! Turbo Bronze here and looks like CMDY is on now! HD would be nice, but I'll take this for now!
Can't say GREEN and BET JAZZ were all that exciting additions.
