DirecTV could lose G4 (Removed 11-1)

[The Fat Man]

So Im a nerd because I like wrestling??? In that case the world is full of them I guess.

I was waiting for that, I too am a card carrying member.

 

[charper1]

I wouldn't say "nerd" as they are simply soap opera stories geared toward males.

 

[Araxen]

Even without wrestling those channels would still put up better ratings than G4.

 

[BlackHitachi]

Blah G4 crap tv.... Yes I despise that channel, it killed off Tech TV the coolest tv network ever.

Very well said!:up

 

[stonecold]

I know me and several others have suggested that "we" (directv) by rebroadcasting rights to Twit.tv programing and make them exclusives on the 101 network but I dont think they will ever do that but it would be nice.

Comcast only owns 20% of CSN Chicago so they don't have alot power to force you buy lots of other channels to get CSN Chicago.

the non comcast cable systems in the area have Versus, g4 and other comcast channels in there higher level and CSN in the lower level and WOW cable has CSN and CSN+ on analog.

Comcsat makes you get starter + a full digital box per tv at about $7 each to get CSN +. The main CSN is on the DTA. Comcast has Versus on the DTA and g4 on starter.

I wonder what channels DIRECTV is planning on cutting?

Easy there, Mike. Cutting channels is an easy way for me to cut YOU...

Edit: Not G4 though....

 

[truckracer]

There's so many politics in the cable and satellite business every time you turn around somebody is dropping channels or not signing a contract or something....i am about ready to stop giving the cable comunists my money and use that cash for something worthwhile like a vacation...

70.00 per month x 12 months= 840.00 cash to do something worth while. there's plenty of fta and ota tv stations nowdays.

G4

Compliments of TV Predictions...

DIRECTV May Lose G4

Well no crying for that channel. Give the AMC, BBC ,Chiller, Sleuth, Geo ,History International, and everything out there. I just watch HD channels do not care for non HD channels.

 

[JohnL]

I have Program listings for G4 as well. I hope that this is a hint that DirecTV is intending to add G4HD and a few other channels as others have suggested. Personally, I'd love to see AMC HD, BBC America HD, and DIY HD. These mentioned HD additions are the HD channels I miss the most since my switch from Dish.

They have about what, 20 or 30 shopping channels and 24 hour infomercial channels? They could dump those and it would be years before anyone noticed..

:up :up :up
does anyone every buy things from those channels?
