Some Channels Blocky?

Over the weekend, quite a few of my cable channels have been coming in blocky (you know, the kind you see with a bad DVD or a stuttering webcast). The problem has been coming and going, and is most noticable on the expanded basic channels such as Nick, Disney, Spike, etc. Right now the problem is getting pretty bad as every other second there seems to be block artifacts all over the screen. Tried both TVs in the house and got the same problem (no converter boxes on either).

On a side, if/when can we expect to see Comedy Central, SciFi, and other channels added to the Expanded Basic... or was this the The Day getting it wrong again (I noticed they also mentioned Cartoon Network as a channel not available currently on EB, strange... I get it).

I was looking at Metrocast's website the other day & they said Effective November 1st, most of those channels would be available in EB. The only ones not listed were TCM & IFC. Maybe they're moving to digital.
