[TV orNotTV] Same stuff, new year, this time in NY...
...where a subscriber-fee dispute (network wants a rate north of ESPN's!) could drive the MSG channels off TWC: http://goo.gl/LDHez Interesting fact about MSG.com: Selecting a zip code and cable/telco/ satellite provider will often only get you listings for the HD versions of their (available) networks.

In a related story, a while back TWC in the Carolinas (maybe elsewhere as well) pulled the MSG-owned Fuse, saying that hardly anyone watched it. Also floated about, using subscriber fees to subsidize a network that no one can theoretically watch in this neck of the words. ~D -Original Message- From: Bob in Jersey Sent: Saturday, December 31, 2011 10:14 AM To: TVorNotTV Subject: [TV orNotTV] Same stuff, new year, this time in NY... ...where a subscriber-fee dispute (network wants a rate north of ESPN's!) could drive the MSG channels off TWC: http://goo.gl/LDHez Interesting fact about MSG.com: Selecting a zip code and cable/telco/ satellite provider will often only get you listings for the HD versions of their (available) networks.

[TV orNotTV] Re: Fox revives FXM mark
The real problem FMC has is that they recycle the same films too frequently, and after a while viewers get the feeling that they've seen everything in the library ... so they stop checking the channel to see what's on. FXM will probably backfire on them, because being on the same channel as FMC, viewers are going to expect commercial-free presentations, just like TCM. AMC saw a decline in viewers when they started taking commercial breaks. Maybe this is an offshoot of Mitt Romney's plan to commercialize PBS ... -- TV or Not TV The Smartest (TV) People!

[TV orNotTV] Possible title confusion
Didn't NatGeo have a recent series called Amazing which was basically Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern without Zim? Travel is shortly unveiling its own Amazing Eats, another Adam Man V Food Richman vehicle, along with another Zim offering, Bizarre Foods America, where presumably he could come to this area and try scrapple, if he didn't already in previous Bizarre seasons... -- BOB -- TV or Not TV The Smartest (TV) People!
