Surf Channel Coming to DISH

[rvvaquero]

Surf Channel? Whoopee. I hope they show some Frankie Avalon/Annette Funicello Beach Blanket Bingo flicks soon.

Cool! A channel dedicated movies and programs about farm workers and renters in feudal countries and eras! Their featured movie is "The Good Earth.

Oh... it's the SURF channel, not the SERF channel! Darn!

I was worried we'd never get such a high-quality sports channel like this after Dish said they didn't have anymore bandwidth when asked about the temporary Olympic 3D channel.

With or without the shark attacks?

It they had surfing in shark infested waters, that would really be Fear Net.

and dish tells me its takes years to add a channel after it first launches. yeah right!

Because this channel (or on demand) is more compelling than 3D..........

Since I love to drag out dead horses, let's not add a 24 hour HD RSN or the PAC 12 networks (I'm really not sure if they did, but good for my rant), or the ever so tired Fear Net that I'm sick of hearing people request time and time again around here. Let's not add more channels to the Cinemax suite or a real high quality replacement for AMC. Let's not add NASA in HD or anything else that everyone else has requested around here from time to time, whether it SD, HD, or 3D. No, let's add Surfing, a niche channel that we can use as an excuse for little transponder space in the future. After all it can go the road of CNBC World, Shorts HD, Fashion TV, and the AMC Nets when we use up its worth in our eyes. Love you Dish, but this is blunder as there are multiple requests that you can be fulfilling.

NEXT MONTH: HD feed of charlies grass growing............

I can't speak for everyone but,why they would waste space on a channel like this is beyond me.Bring back Amc/Ifc Yes/Msg and Gol tv for the soccer fans.

GolTV? They are about obsolete unless you love German soccer. BeinSports 1 has almost put GolTV out of business. Point taken though. This channel seems a bit niche. Price must have been right.

Just give Locals in HD

Yea,my point is give the customers what they want,not what the provider wants.

That's just it, I do love German football.......

Given our increasingly sizable population, perhaps the founder should consider changing the name and format to the "Surf and Turf Channel".

or the ever so tired Fear Net that I'm sick of hearing people request time and time again around here.

I'm sorry you feel that way. I do respect your opinion. I don't know about other folks but i have been asking for FEARnet for over a year and a half and i won't give up.

The SciFi channel has cornered the market on shark attack movies. Jersy Shore Shark Attack, starring a Snooki lookalike is a classic.

Is curling next?
