Rumor: HGTV Channel 615

[Iceman]

When is Voom getting HGTV & Food

I am going crazy now that Voom has that new promotions going on. The problem is, my wife's favorite channels are Home and Garden and Food Network. Any news on when they are going to add these? I can't make the switch until then. Switching to Voom without those two channels would be like me switching to a carrier without ESPN and Fox Sports.

Should be coming very soon! Perhaps by the time you get installed...

Ilya, I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or you know something.

I've been waiting since May. Still waiting.

If you read Scotts first post on the other thread you can figure out that it will be early this coming week. He likes to write in code.

No, I am serious. Don't know the exact date yet, but it shouldn't be too long now. Stay tuned...

Just so that you know, if you switch to Voom when they get HG & Food, you will be switching to a provider without Fox Sports. That's also been coming soon for a couple months now.

HGTV, Food, ESPN, FOX Sports (or any sports for that matter) ----- Four channels I would never watch


Any word on TechTV?

The word is that it was ruined when Comcast bought it. Most of the staff was fired or quit. Shows cancelled. No longer worth watching, unfortunately.

TechTV is called G4 now

Actually it's called G4TechTv now, and like the previous post, it is not nearly as fun to watch as it used to be in the ZDTV days.

Geez louise, I had no idea, I hadn't seen it since I made the jump from C-Band to Voom exactly a year ago

NO LEO????

Well I take it back then

 

[barth2k]

I liked TechTV. Most of the info is stuff I already know, but I like the relaxed, geeky, sort of public-access TV feel to their shows.

TECH TV with Leo and the gang was great. They bought it for what it was and then spoiled the soup. Stupid...stupid people can't leave a good thing alone.

 

[FreddyvsJasonvsAsh]

The girl that use to host Screensavers with Leo was hot

 

[sixy]

I think you're referring to Morgan. She was taken off of The Screensavers and moved to a show called X-Play before they were bought out by Comcast. She's still there. She's probably the only reason people still watch TechTV.

So is HGTV and FoodNet coming sometime this week for sure.

 

[Slick]

Oh thats to bad that Tech tv is not hosted with Leo and the gang any more, I really emjoyed it back then.. I am like the other Voomer I have not seen it since I became a Voomer.. I hate when someone ruins a good thing.. Cya Slick

Just received a call from a CSR at Voom following up on my PIN issue. He told me to look for Home & Garden TV on channel 615 tomorrow (Nov 24) at 7AM EST.

 

[stockymd]

REALLY......???? OH DON'T PLAY WITH MY EMOTIONS!!! IF THIS IS TRUE I WILL BE REALLY HAPPY. Now we need Food Network people!!!

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Yes HGTV is coming tommorow to VOOM, I am also told that FOOD will be on VOOM in about a week.

Happy Holidays!
