I still don't understand what happened with this. How is it that they are producing special feeds just for DISH?

Excellent question! Any answers, Scott?

My son was watching yesterday afternoon and at 4:00, instead of the announced "next" Little Bear, there was ZOEY!

Yeah, clearly there's some sort of "deal" in place that provides this regardless of what's been claimed publicly.

I actually watch Nick Gas quite a bit, so I hope E* is able to keep that feed.

Maybe when they split N and Noggin, Viacom will also make Dish carry Logo!

According to a web board, switch will happen on or before January 31, 2009. I guess that Viacom and E* will have some time to resolve the issue. Maybe we'll get some HD channels and the SD channel Logo that several people wanted.

Well, since those channels do exist, it's easy to do a split version.

But why/how are they keeping a GAS feed alive JUST for DISH?

The whole thing sounds stupid and don't make since why they are doing this just for Dish Network or why Dish Network has to have this exception. Come on Dish, get with the program.

C-Band subscribers just made the switch from GAS to the The-N recently. GAS had a feed via HITS. Maybe, GAS will end soon on DISH.

Nick GAS , Stinks GAS, Sucks GAS. The worse channel ever. I can't believe it is over 6 months and that waste is still on not Noggin and The-N on its own channel.

They must not see enough demand to do anything about it yet. If it was a channel like TBS or USA I am sure they would have done something quickly.
