No!!!! Not Noggin! My 5 year old lives off of Noggin. Whatever will he do?
Seriously, though, he loves all the shows on Noggin and will probably complain that he can't watch the new "Toot and Puddle", "Yo Gabba Gabba", or "Max and Ruby." However, we have enough shows DVR-d to satisfy him for some time and he can always switch to Disney Channel or to a DVD.
Other than Noggin, I really don't care about the other channels. (I do watch Comedy Central from time to time, but not enough to notice right away if it goes off the air.) |

Limbo | Kids have short memories. He'll forget he ever watched Noggin within 3-6 months. 
If you're really worried, start taping them now and then just play them back on an endless loop. He'll never catch on.

I don't watch a single one of those channels. I would love for dish to pull these channels and let me replace them with ones that I want. |

Damn... Not a single worthwhile channel in their lineup. Viacom could turn into a smoking hole in the next 5 seconds and I'd likely never even notice.

What they need to do is put them in there own tier then we would see just how much they are worth. Only those that want like 10 Music TV channels would have to pay for it. This is why pay TV is going to pot. Way to many junk channels forced on the end user at too high of a price in the end. We need to get back to different levels of standard TV like $20, $30 and $40 dollars basic packages then the "all you can eat" packages for those who need it.
Same with HSI. It is not right to give someone 20mbps and cap at 5 or 40 gig and also charge them like 50 or 60 bucks. It should be no more then 25 buck to just check e-mail and very little surfing.
We all know what is really happening here, ISP cap so you don't start getting your TV over your HSI connection and drop yout TV package as most channels can be had for free over the internet. The ISP wants part of the inernet TV pie also. Everyone wants are money, but some of us have many more choices then others and that is what make this whole mess unfair to some.
I think big changes are a coming as it just is not working the current way. |
