They're both active and available on Ch 252/253 for me.
Was this some sort of announcement? Got a link? |

| Only thing I can find is this link: »www.multichannel.com/article/CA6364185.html Of course this is from last summer. There are some other links if you search for them regarding this issue...however would they just pull the channel now?

This is incorrect. Both Lifetime and Lifetime Movie are active. LRW and Tennis channels are being/added and dropped.
Lifetime Real Women, Ch 261 ends on 7/24
Tennis Channel launches 8/27 on Ch 217

| Thank you for writing about your concern in losing Lifetime Real Women, channel 261. You've been with DIRECTV all these years and we want you to know we value your business. I appreciate being given the chance to respond to your concern and provide you with the information that you need.
As you’ve heard, we’ve made the difficult decision to stop carrying Lifetime Real Women (channel 261). I’m not sure why we ended our agreement to carry it, but I have been advised that this was a mutual decision by DIRECTV and Lifetime.
I know that this channel was important to you, and I’ve forwarded your comments on to our Programming Department. I want to thank you for you feedback. We appreciate when our customers take the time to share ideas and suggestions with us as this is how we improve our service.
Even though we will no longer be carrying this channel, I assure you that we are definitely going to continue carrying Lifetime (channel 252) and Lifetime Movie Network (channel 253). In addition to the other Lifetime networks, you may find similar programming to Lifetime Real Women on Oxygen, Food Network, Biography Channel, WE, SoapNet; check your program guide or directv.com for more details on these channels.
Thanks again for writing and we appreciate your patience and understanding.
Sincerely,

There are also a number of other similar channels that are and will be in the lineup as well. |
