Rumor Alert!

[KAB]

WTH is "Investigation Discovery"?

ID : Investigation Discovery : Hollywood Crimes, Forensics, Murderers

 

[PopcornNMore]

But what about N HD which is already uplinked?

 

[Roxor]

OK let's start with one of them...

This is the one I think all packages will get...

QVC HD...

We will announce another one in a little while.

Wow!!!

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

But what about N HD which is already uplinked?

No news on it to report. And since they only seem the Fresh Prince 24/7 and its not in HD what would there be to watch in HD anyways.

Thanks, but I had googled it after I posted (I know, should have done that before).

And I repeat....WTH is "Investigation Discovery"?

I'll see if I can find the SD version in my guide and extrapolate.

HSN HD is coming later this year.

And Channel 101 is already in HD for select special concerts.

Double wow!!!

WTH is "Investigation Discovery"?

Thanks.

You know, I didn't even know we had the SD channel. It's identified as "ID" in the guide and I guess I thought "how good could it be if it only warrants two letters"?

That said, the shows look a lot like the cop shows on A&E, etc., but, again, I'd rather have it than not.

Assination of King Tut I might be interested in. Not much else happening for me.

Boy, I'm glad I switched from DTV! Dish is adding HD channels all time

 

[TNGTony]

Investigation Discovery (ID) is channel 192.

This channel has been through several incarnations before it became ID.

It was added to Dish as "Discovery Civilization" in 1999 as part of the original AT150 channels. It has remained on the top tier since.

Many of the programs from the defunct Discovery People (which was CBS Eye on People) were folded into this channel. Discovery Civilization had programs about people and civilizations past and present.

This channel later became Discovery Times when Discovery Networks entered into a deal with the NY Times. The programming slowly began to focus on more current events and lose all the historical perspective.

When the NY Times pulled out, the channel was completely rebranded and reperpoused and now competes directly with A&E's Crime & Investigation network.

See ya

Aha!

BBCA-HD?

I wish it was BBC World News in HD (or SD for that matter). I cannot understand why every other country in the world has BBC World News on their cable, satellite, telco provider EXCEPT for this one!! Ridiculous! :rant:

 

[nrholland]

All I want is the MLB channel............of course, if it is automatically added to my current Turbo package. If that is done, I will be completely satisfied.

Don't count on it. The only channel that will be added to the Turbo package will be QVC HD. It'll probably be the last one EVER added to the Turbo packs.

 

[hclarkjr]

That's a pretty good trick to hide the channels in the private pub. But I will spill the beans, I think the Channels will be:

MLB Channel
Smithsonian Channel
BBC-World Channel.

please let it be true about MLB!!! PLEASE!!!!

 

[mitchflorida]

I have been informed that Turbo HD subscribers may also be getting HSN-HD at no extra charge! Isn't that great?

 

[AdamGott]

Darn! Was hoping for TCM-HD (or at least AMC-HD).

 

[JFaber99]

please let it be true about MLB!!! PLEASE!!!!

Ninth inning is over on this game!!! Continue reading all the pages in the thread for the score.

 

[Jim S.]

Woohoo from here as well. Hopefully they will be uncut. Crossing my fingers.

Torchwood is scheduled for a 75-minute slot. The actual run times are around 58 minutes.

 

[blazingfate]

g4 HD?? haha.

You can be sure that no CANADIAN channels will get added to E* (or D*). There's no demand for Canadian channels down here (except for Canadians that live in the states. They'll have to use the internet to watch anything from Canada or go Grey market.
