OK, but can everyone please try to "stay the course" at least? |

PLOT TWIST! Maybe Jeep's message wasn't a bug after all. I am not at home, so I can't check. Can others confirm? |

I only looked at 619, TWC. Guide still said TWC, but it was showing The Accuweather Channel instead. And they were actually showing the weather. |

Wow, stunning! TWC itself is completely useless and worthless, and WeatherScan was frustrating because we'd get towns 100 miles away. I've never seen Accuweather, do they show your LOCAL weather? |

They had these channels in the Sports Package a long time ago, then put them in Extreme for some reason, now I guess they changed their minds again. |

This is a disturbing trend. I've seen other channels get pulled from Extreme, nothing I care about, but disturbing nonetheless. What recourse does one have if they move something one likes? Must one upgrade to ultimate? This is dirty. We signed up for 2 years and only they can change terms and conditions, to force us to pay more? Given that they are selling us (CA) off in a year, at the end of my 24 obligated months, FiOS is not a safe bet. |

Don't the FCS channels show mostly bottom of the barrel small school teams that few people care about? Probably why they are not in HD... |

I wish they would dump a bunch of those channels from the Ultimate HD tier and lower my price some. They should just put all those on a sports tier and have people pay extra for the sports tier if they want it. Especially ESPN. The majority of people subsidize the cost of ESPN for the minority of people that watch it. |

They will never lower any price. Ever. |

They are in HD on the various Fox Sports and other RSNs that originate the broadcasts. I don't think Fox produces anything in SD anymore. They've been doing HD long enough to phase out all the SD gear and replace with newer HD stuff. |

With the current lack of HD space I highly doubt that will happen anytime soon and would also piss off a lot of people including me who have more than enough sports channels in HD already. |

Maybe they can take the space that those three SD channels took up, and put that toward one good PQ HD channel. The content of said channel, is anyones guess. H2 channel in High Def. Anyone? Anyone? |

That would be nice. Especially, if it were for that H2 channel, ironically.
But saying that. I would be happy with American Heroes Channel in HD, as well. |
