Wow, that is impressive!! Great, great line-up of shows!

Looks like this ME-TV thing is everything TV Land used to be, and more...

I think I'd like to get that network!

WWME is the channel's actual name. The same schedule is simulcast on WCIU digital channel 2.

Does anyone know if there are any other shows or changes coming this March, b/c all I know is that they're palnning to do a Webster marathon on March 7, so could that be true?

Free-to-Air Satellite dishes can pick Me-TV up, but you have to use the Anik satellite C-band signal. You can also get WGN and CLTV. Also, the Anik satellite signal picks up Sun-TV from Toronto as well. :)

Not sure if you can pick it up with free to air satellite dishes, but the channel is wonderful. They don't talk over the closing credits of shows or squish them, they don't run silly graphics, like "you're watching "facts of life, up next, diff'rent strokes" during the programs, they don't insert commercials where they don't belong, and occasionally they will run completely uncut episodes of their series. I just an epsiode of the Facts of the Life the other day that only had about 5 minutes of commercial time in it.

I currently get METV through comcast cable-

I also got it in Ilinois when I lived there ( I am now in Indiana) so it is spreading.

I love the lineup.
I am putting to dvd the full set of 8 is neough which they air 6x a week and whats happening now 6x a week.
And next I am starting on Cagney and Lacey

Tv hasn't been this good since I was 12!

Man, can't wait till this channel spreads to Florida!

I don't know how old you are, but "TV hasn't been this good since I was 12" is a great line!

I want this channel!!!

Yes, the analog channel is 23 and it went on the air about January 1, 2005. :)

I wish Southern California had a TV station like that! :D
