This month is the 4th Annual Dish Kids Binge-A-Palooza, according to the mydish website. Dish really needs to learn the meaning of the word "Annual" since the 3rd Annual Dish Kids Binge-A-Palooza was in
2019, almost two years ago:
Anyway, the
long-awaited return of this event includes free previews of many kids-themed channels, including:
175 Boomerang 6/1 - 6/30
168 Disney Junior 6/1 - 6/30
174 Disney XD 6/1 - 6/30
286* Hopster 6/1 - 6/30
296* Kartoon Channel 6/1 - 6/30
170 Nickelodeon 6/1 - 6/30
169 Nick Jr. 6/1 - 6/30
178 Nicktoons 6/1 - 6/30
181 TeenNick 6/1 - 6/30
*mydish lists channel 286 as Hopster. Channel 286 is actually NASA, which is not in free preview. Both Hopster and Kartoon Channel are on streaming-only sub-channels of channel 296, and require a receiver with the Hopper interface. Hopster is on channel 296-43, and Kartoon Channel is on channel 296-52.
In the past, this event has also included free preview weekends of kids-themed premium channels, such as
Starz Kids and Family and
Showtime Family Zone. No such previews are listed yet on the mydish site, though.
