I have the Flex Package and TNT is not part of that base package. Dish says it's available in the Drama & Classics pack for $6/mo.
I guess it depends on what your Dish subscription is.
Never mind, my bad.

No problem, I was actually a little surprised it wasn't part of the Flex Package. I get TBS, but not TNT.
Isn't there a

It looks like TNT was removed from the Flex Pack.
The channel lineup from June 10 shows it in the Flex Pack:
The channel lineup from June 30, shows it is no longer in the Flex Pack: https://my.dish.com/cms-files/channelcards/2025/0630/Channel_Lineup.pdf
That June 30th lineup card shows it is valid for July 2025, I wonder if it changed on July 1?

I was wondering why Dish included TNT in the new Drama & Classics Pack since it was already in all English packages including Flex. Now we know they quietly removed it from the Flex Pack.
Exactly - that is why when I posted in another thread about the package, I was surprised because I didn't remember any other package having TNT or needing TNT because it was in all the packages.
Yes, I had TNT to watch the NASCAR race last weekend (June 29th), and this weekend it is gone. My flex bill with a few packages has ballooned to nearly $160! I've got to find something else. The biggest reason I have stayed is due to the long list of hard to find old movies on my DVR.
You have to decide if you want to pay that exorbitant price to keep a collection of films that you will probably never watch again, or seldom watch.
Get you a Hauppauge PVR 1212 and copy them (in real time) to your PC, possibly a USB external drive on your PC. It uses the component outputs from your Dish receiver. Check the back of your receiver for red, green and blue RCA plugs, and maybe even a TOSLINK optical fiber plug for audio.
If you haven't talk to a US based retention customer service representative and don't mind committing to a new 2 year agreement, you can get $20 to $30 off per month off most English packages. When I did it last year I also got several free months of the Sports package. Oh, you might ask for some free PPV certificates.
They may offer reduced equipment fees too. Another way to reduce your bill is to cancel extra devices (like a Joey) that you may not use very often.
Also, on some add on packages you may be offered a reduced rate for 3 or 6 months when you try to cancel through your online account.
None of this is guaranteed and your mileage may vary, but it never hurts to see what Dish may offer a good customer. I'm sure others on this forum can tell you what they have recently been offered.
What a peculiar bundle Drama and Classics is. Sundance, TNT and local add ons?
Interesting how a slight spelling change makes such a large difference in meaning.
"Beat and switch."

I have the flex package and it was there. Evidently it was removed on June 30th.
UPDATE.. On my latest bill dated today July 8, it says... Effective June 30, 2025, DISH's Flex Pack will no longer carry TNT.
That would explain why Dish updated their channel cards on June 30thI have the flex package and it was there. Evidently it was removed on June 30th.

Probably not as they only have 5 races. If there were a lot more I would agree.
TruTV is still in the base package and they have an alternate feed for the races (and replays it a day later)
