Does anyone think that The Sundance Channel does not belong in the Lifestyles 2 Digital Theme. It looks like it belongs in More Movies.
 
I would like to see the crtc go they water down evertything i think we would get better televsion sations i would like ITV in England FX from the States and Australian t.v also plus a station for my area here in Niagara we have the 12 biggest popluation in Canada without a t.v station to call our own
 
Thanks.... it is better than nothing.
I didnt know they had an online TvGuide... very cool!
 
new channels hi hi. for march. sundance channel. wmovies channel. those are the two guess.....
 
Yea makes no sense, I doubt they will get much subscribers, I actually liked CNNi but not worth paying $3 for.

They should add Fox Business and put that along with BNN and CNBC in a separate package.
 
my Grandparents have Bell TV, so I called them earlier on today to see if they have it yet but they don't.
 
Baseball is worth watching even if it is in etch-a-sketch format! OK..it has been a long winter and I am a baseball geek.

They should have rebranded Sex TV to "Steam".

Sundance sounds like Westerns, but it won't be.
 
GOL-TV Canada is owned by MLSE (Maple Leaf Sports Entertainment) - 51%; with the other 49% held by the original GOL-TV Group.

GOL-TV USA have just announced that they will start broadcasting in HD on August 1st, 2010. One would suspect that GOL-TV Canada would follow suit as they are already approved by the CRTC to broadcast in HD and have moved to HD facilities in Toronto at the end of last summer.

They currently show MLS matches in HD but on dedicted channels (such as Special Event channels). Unfortunately, this is only true for Shaw and Cogeco systems. For some reason, no HD broadcasts are scheduled for Bell. Last summer they used channel 399 to show a friendly between Toronto FC and Real Madrid. With about 90% of their programming coming from GOL-TV USA, I wouldn't expect a HD channel in Canada until August.

yeah I agree reid. I am pretty pumped up to have these channels, wasnt sure if I was going to get them being a telus satellite but there there :)
 
How can they add 5 HD channels when they are strapped (or so I thought) for bandwidth? Everyone complains about the poor PQ of Bell HD yet they have excess space available for olympic channels? I don't follow....
 
It was mentioned earlier on this page Post #256 that if bell bundled CNNi an Al Jazeera they would not make a profit. My point was that bell is already making record profits every year.
 
boxoctosis, you are correct. I am watching it right now, really don't like having to pay $3 for it but I dropped News 2. They really need to expand a la carte outside of Quebec.....
