Fall 2025: Weigel Goes WEST

[BigManMike]

Now I do like the Waltons. But it’s on at a terrible time. I’m usually out and about on Saturday afternoons. It would be much better at night.

It probably will be added sometime this week or the week after or before the end of the year.

It’s airing on FRNDLY right now; I’m watching it. LARAMIE is currently showing.

The odd thing is that Frndly publicly announced it was adding MeTv Toons yet said nothing about West or at least I didn't see it.

I’m guessing it may have been more of a last-minute decision or negotiation, and thus FRNDLY may not have had much time afterwards to properly market it like they did MeTV Toons. They do have banner ads in the app and Guide now that are promoting its launch.

Mom found West on Frindly TV a few minutes ago and she glanced at it and she thought West is pretty nice and seems like a channel Dad would enjoy. The strange thing is I searched for West on Frindly TV this morning it wasn't featured in the channels. When did West get added to Frindly TV? Yesterday or just right now? Because Mom had never found West on there
Thanks for the info Zoneboy

This morning I saw WEST for the very first time on Frindly TV and I think it may have competition with the other channels that deal in westerns. WEST "full name Western Entertainment Television" is similar to Grit and Western Bound "an all westerns oriented channel created by INSP." From what I saw they carry The Virginian Bonanza and many other westerns but I learned from Dad that WEST carries John Wayne movies like Hondo True Grit and Shane. I think for the westerns fan WEST fits like a glove and maybe someday they will add shows like The Young Riders and Sky King and probably add some Roy Rogers shows too in the future

Just like there is now a channel that caters to only western dramas, I would love to see a retro network that aired primetime soaps. This would be my line-up to kick off the network;
7 & 8am Eight is Enough
9 &10 & 11am Beverly Hills, 90210
12 & 1pm Hotel
2 & 3pm Falcon Crest
4 & 5 & 6pm Dallas
7 & 8 & 9pm Knots Landing
10 & 11pm Dynasty
12 & 1am Melrose Place
2 & 2:30am Peyton Place

a soap channel should also have tv series-

bare essence

rituals

emerald point nas

the secrets of midland heights

kings crossing

sisters

berringers

edge of night


search for tomorrow

a newer soap channel just for serials would be awesome spinoff (models) would be nice to see again.seems title maybe was ..models,inc. with well known tv stars.
