New Dish Network Channel 101 to Launch July 1st

[Jeff003]

As of 9:50 this morning it still has the same loops and looks the same.

 

[Hall]

Normally when they announce dates for new things they usually miss them by 2 weeks to 2 years.

'bout time you caught on !! Then again, you still haven't learned to stop posting rumored start dates..... just can't resist trying to claim the scoop, eh ?

 

[MikeD-C05]

Well the name changed but the tired video loop is the same. Great work DISH.

 

[DWS44]

...and you all were actually sitting at home on pins & needles waiting for this to happen?!?

:haha LOL

 

[clrntsqueak]

Haha, I definitely wasn't. I just happened to be awake and saw this thread and figured "Hey, why not check this out?" and saw it was the same exact loop as before and changed the channel.

Kinda funny how Dish didn't even get this working on time.

 

[SHEEPareBAD]

thank god.

i cant wait to hear something different everytime i do an install. their voices have started to haunt me in my dreams. now all they need to change is the on hold song on the ivr. GRRRRR!!

 

[sansha]

They're launching a new channel for that. The DISH SATELLITE LAUNCH LOOP channel, coming soon to channel 102!

Hey, we need a High def version of that too! That can be the HD channel that Dish gives us free outside of the network packages (to justify the 6.00 fee Dish charges for HD receivers when you have no HD programming package! - supposedly this is for the nonexistent free HD channels -- the sat launch loop HD channel can be the first!)

Now *that* will make people sign up for HD -- how could they miss that marketing tool? Then D* will need to launch a competing channel, of course. And then we can have endless discussions about which has the better HD picture quality. And who has the fewer program repetitions. I can see it all now!

It is now changed it changed at midnight and is now called dishnetwork neighborhood.

Does Charlie come out wearing a tired cardigan and singing "Won't you be my neighbor?"

 

[db2]

Charlie: Well hello there neighbor...
*doorbell rings*
Charlie: Oh! Sounds like someone's at the door
*looks through window*
Charlie: Hey it's Mr. McSahl the programming guy! I wonder if he brought the rest of the RSN's in HD...oh darn, it looks like he's empty handed again...

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Hey be nice to Mr McSahl, as he always brings COOKIES, and we all know Mr. McSahls mommy makes the best cookies.

 

[db2]

You're right. We can't blame Mr. McSahl if there isn't any "mail" to "bring".

And yes, we do love the COOKIES.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Ok I see the new programming is now online...

And alls that I can say is...
Dish whats with all the red? Hasn't anyone mentioned to them that the color RED is the worst color to display on TV?

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Ok I have watched the entire thing...

And by official decree I name the new Customer Information Channel "Reds Clues"

The graphics and animation reminds me of the kids show "Blues Clues" however everything here is RED. So from now on I will try to refer to channel 101 at "Reds Clues"

I find it funny that the customer information channel is now sponsored by The Weather Channel.
