First I've heard of this. You list only eight; only one I'd like to see is TCM. |

Are you referring to some vague comments by Heather Wilner over in the Verizon forums?

I certainly understand the frustration that some of you are feeling. My colleagues here assure me that plans are in the works to launch more HD channels in the coming months and I certainly expect to see them by October. As soon as I have more details, I will share them here. |

I agree, I do not recall anyone at Verizon ever saying there was going to be a dozen HD channels added this October. And I beginning to think the Cartoon-HD addition was just another baseless "rumor" as well. |

i just posted hd channels i can think off the top of my head that FiOS does not have and seem to be in popular demand..
also regarding "never heard of this" its been rumored for a while and several people on here have stated this.. not saying it is true but if anyone has information on it I was wondering if there is any update.. |

The accountability-impaired Twitter Joe said the word "dozens" relating to HD adds in 2011 that never materialized. Different issue.
At least this particular comment of "by October" is partially true with the BBCA add. |

BBC-A HD was our Christmas gift |

| Agree. I find "Copper" absolutely fascinating and wouldn't have watched it at all in SD. |

Springfield, NJ | I would not hold my breath. They said that at the end of last year, we would get a lot of new channels and we got nothing. That is not to say that a new channel will pop up every now and then, but I am convinced that they will be few and far between. I would also add that FIOS does almost all the HBO, Showtime and Cinemax channels in HD, which none of the other providers have. |

And I am very much for that. However, between HBO, Showtime, & Cinemax, there are 13 HD west coast feeds. I'm glad all the channels are in HD, but should limited HD space be used on west coast feeds (especially considering the premium channels replay content more than most other channels). |

I'd second TV Land, TCM & Hallmark, and add C-SPAN-HD. Its likely available at nearly zero cost to providers as well. |
|
| I'll take all the premium movie HD channels that haven't been added yet for showtime and Starz mostly. Also Epix has to more channels has well on dish network |
