Sci-Fi HD...when can we watch?

[7thton]

So, when will Dish flip the switch and actually let us watch it?

 

[drummerguy]

Hopefully as early as next Wednesday.

Thats anyone's guess. Just because the channel is uplinked doesnt mean it will be turned on anytime soon.....oops i said the infamous E* word......SOON.

Sounds good...why do you say that though?

As soon as it is, I upgrade my package from the $6 locals/movie acsess fee to the full HD package.

Stuff usually happens on Wednesdays, so I'm just hoping for next Wednesday on this. But like it's been said, it's anyone's guess.

My favorite day of the week is FRIDAY.

Might be yours too if your a fan of SCI-FI or USA.

Just some buzz I am hearing.

Previous E* routine was to uplink one week and make available the next. Provided there are no contractual issues.

Scott has the answer again!!!

I think it will happen before Wednesday. Charlie chat needs somthing to talk about.

Friday morning has a Battlestar Galactica Marathon... Sunday Tin Man repeats, both in HD...

 

[cosmo_kramer]

Yes, the real definition of soon, not the E* one.

 

[pdxsam]

Is it a Tin Man marathon? I recorded them all in SD but I just might have to bounce them in favor.

 

[dfergie]

Yes, Sunday afternoon... I have them all on my HR20, haven't got to them yet other than about :30 minutes... will be handier to have SciFiiHD on Dish as you can send individual programs to External HDD... Btw SGA looks awesome

 

[drummerguy]

Well, now I'm just all giddy with anticipation that I may be able to watch Atlantis in HD on Friday.

Well they could actually announce something BEFORE it happens. It seldom happens on Charlie Chats but it could.

Seems like they used to do that a lot, but then adopted a "can't talk about future happenings" stance, probably because they didn't follow through on several things they promised (like Indianapolis HD locals).

I had a feeling E* was about to add some HD channels after they asked if they could borrow my shoe horn to fit them in.
