It seems to have some decent shows on there. 227, Amen, etc. Some I haven't seen in years.

Not sure why it's called "gospel", looking through the guide all I see are old shows. What am I missing?

Now there was a channel that came out a few years ago that if memory serves me well was called the Gospel Music Channel. But it was all religious programming. It had a lot of contemporary Christian music and some preaching. Is this the same channel? If so, it sure has changed.

It was the Gospel Music Channel. Then it changed format and became GMC.

Kind of like MTV quit showing "music"; HLN quit showing headline news 24/7; well, you get the picture.

This seems closer to TNN changing to Spike TV. ;^) Least it's G-rated and a free preview.

But why isn't it listed on 102 as a preview?

Thanks Zach! It wasn't listed in any package at the Dish site yet.

It's not showing up in my guide so I had to do a reset switch and download updated guide info. It's there now but no HD. I've been wanting this channel for a while, so I'm glad it's here in free preview.

I subscribe to 200, not 250, so I'll enjoy it until 10/12/11.

Really interested in the program "Perfect Boobs" at 3 AM. Don't know if that's an infomercial or if they changed the title for the 700 Club.

I noticed that too a moment ago and thought "what? inappropriate for this channel?" but noticed that it was an infomercial.

And Candid Camera. A friend of mine was over a few days back and she liked Heartland. Haven't gotten into many of the movies they show but I doubt I'll find Death Wish, Seagal or horror films here.

Looks like the channel will be part of the AT250 pckage.

We have launched the gmc channel into America’s Top 250 and higher programming packages at no additional charge. The gmc channel will be available in free preview through October 12, 2011 and may be viewed by any DISH Network customer with an applicable antenna pointed to the correct orbital location.
