The March 12 and on schedule was released today and there are no changes. Hopefully we get some expansion in April or May. I think it is more likely in June or July, but who knows really.

thebloodyscot · 02-26-2007, 01:46 PM

Doesn't seem like they'll ever expand. Month after month, it never changes. They love their infomercials too much to ever expand their schedule, despite what they've said before.

clj2 · 02-26-2007, 07:14 PM

I remember recieving a response to an e-mail from them in July? or so of last year and they said they may be expanding by the end of 2006. Here it is March almost and still no word and the line-up isn't even changing. I'm sure they know when the Infomercial contracts expire, why don't they at least tell us a rough date? Don't networks usually release when the contract for a show expires?

If they aren't going to expand any time soon, seems to me the least they could do is either drop the double takes, air different shows every night, or something. Pretty disappointing that of all the shows they have access to, two of them (two hours weeknights, then Bonanza) are available elsewhere.

Pavan · 02-26-2007, 09:05 PM

I am pretty sure the line-up will expand sometime between April-July. July is when their RHI programming starts, and they are very high on that.

TVJunkie101 · 02-27-2007, 12:55 PM

It'll probably be in July, then. It's disappointing and I agree they should drop the double-takes and add a few more shows.

eng51squad51 · 02-27-2007, 04:37 PM

It would be nice if they would add some shows in the mornings times. maybe they will expand the schedule soon.

They need to expand past 11pm and before 5pm!
Some local IONTV channels like KTKO from Harrison,Arkansas have it's own programming like Local News and so on.

I know I hope when they expand the hours it is the morning Hours

thebloodyscot · 03-07-2007, 04:24 PM

hopefully it'll be by July

It is the same in Louisville, Kentucky. We only get programming from 5pm to 11pm. All other times are infomercialls or religious programming.
