My guess would also be that FXX fills the empty SoapNet slot at Service 
Electric come 9AM Jan 2nd '14. They didn't let on as much on dad's latest 
bill, tho.

I received a robocall from the local cable concern last night, noting -
among other changes* - its 12/17 move of FXX to the 300s (SD)/400s (HD)
alongside such channels as Oprah, BBC Yank, and WE.
 
*Farewell SoapNet and G4, and hello Esquire HD and Bloomberg.

Meanwhile, DirecTV has finally moved FXX from its old channel (619, Fox 
Soccer Channel's old slot) to channel 259, right next to FXM (Fox Movie 
Channel).

However, like its new next-door channel, you still have to have the 
third-highest tier of service to get it, which is a $16/month jump over the 
basic package I have.  So far, haven't seen anything that makes me want to 
upgrade to watch it.

2013-11-15 Thread Mark Jeffries
I would guess that only the FX Networks properties (the mothership and FXM
besides FXX).  I don't see NatGeo or the sports channels airing it and Fox
News likes to claim that it is independent of Fox Broadcasting whenever
it's necessary (like when Mike Darnell wanted to have OJ talk about how he
might've killed those people on Fox), so I don't think FNC or FBN would air
it.

Is this an exclusive deal, or will "The Simpsons" start showing up all over 
Fox's cable properties, the same way the McFarlane shows seem to 
cross-pollinate across Turner networks?
