Love Kills by WBTV
Mysterious Worlds by WBTV

How do you see the testing channels? I thought I had heard if you sign out on a Roku you could see all the testing channels but it doesn't let me see anything.

From what I know you have to have some special equipment to see them now I don't know what that equipment is

Any idea why those channels from the WB are still testing from April?

 

[KyL416]

They're probably still finalizing the deal since they keep on adding more of them in test every few months. A bunch of them didn't even have Gracenote stationId entries until DTV started testing them.
