Sling TV & Dish May Soon Drop The FX Network & National Geographic

[bluegras]

Earlier today it was announced that Sling TV and Dish may soon drop Fox Regional Sports Networks as talks continue on a new contract. Now we have learned that FX and National Geographic may also soon be dropped as Disney and Dish negotiate for a new contract now that Disney owns the FX Network.

Back in March Disney closed on its deal to buy most of Fox. Disney now owns 20th Century Fox movie and television studio, Fox’s 22 regional sports channels (that will soon be sold off), cable channels including FX and National Geographic, and Fox’s portfolio of international operations, including a fast-growing pay-TV service in India. The deal will also give Disney 60% ownership of Hulu.

I'm gonna be having an extra $173.00 per month to spend on things other than Dish soon if they remove any channels.

The HBO deal is different because of AT&T/DirecTV, but those other channels will probably not be gone forever

 

[voodooevil]

i just hope this all works out. i have tried every streaming service and cable. dis equipment is so superior and easy and nice to look at. i am still irritated by the bottom guide banner. although i say i am leaving, i try, but just can’t.
flex pack is perfect for me. wish we had som dedicated horror related channel offer.

I'm stuck with Dish and their pitiful excuse for internet until the local phone company decides to run fiberoptic lines in this area. I would be long gone as well if there were any other options.

Well, as you know, it's not their internet, but the option you chose....perhaps you could be more specific.

No cell phone service in your area?

I think it’s MILDLY POSSIBLE that HBO and Cinemax could return, but it’ll take a long time from now. Remember, even Univision returned.

I don’t think it’s coming back.

The damage has been done. Whoever absolutely needed HBO has already left or found alternate options to get it.

Considering Dish has more customers who subscribe to the lower packages. There really isn’t a demand for HBO.

Which isn't Dish's fault. It's HBO's for becoming a shell of what they once were. After GoT ended, I think a lot of people cashed out on HBO

It is not Dish's fault. I guess the services, just want to play dirty pool.

 

[Claude Greiner]

I don’t blame the loss of HBO on Dish at all. We all know AT&T is playing dirty on this one as they are going down and want to take Dish with them.

Any other dispute, ABSOLUTELY Dish is to blame as usual

 

[HipKat]

Yeah, well, Dish isn't going down.....

What’s on FX these days? NatGeo is a shell of its former self.

 

[fishman316]

Nat geo wild is still a good channel. Nat geo has gone the way of discovery channel. Like you said a shell of what it was. Only thing on fx that we still watch is AHS
