service on September 1st. This Channel STINKS!! These are the horrible Tv shows that air on Hallmark

Mash-4 times a day
Northern Exposure
Touched by An Angel
Magnum, P.I.
Waltons
Dr. Quinn
Little House on the Prarie
Matlock
Perry Mason
Bonanza

The Channel should be renamed "THE DRAMA NETWORK"!!

This is why God invented the remote.

Sheesh. I only watch 5 of my 80 channels on a regular basis. JUST IGNORE THEM if you don't like them!

It's not as good now as it used to be during its Odyssey years, but I am looking forward to seeing "The Wild, Wild West." I've always wanted to see that show. Right now that show and it's Sunday afternoon line-up are the only saving grace of what was a once excellent channel.

Here's a solution that I have found to help avoid crappy channels like that.

Solomon, Solomon, Solmon, those are all great shows, what am I going to do with you?

I'm not a big fan of Hallmark, either. I thought it was a lot better when it first began and back in its Odyssey days.

Actually, when it first began, it was VISN ("the Vision Interfaith Satellite Network"), and it showed all religious programming.

I never really been into dramas so that maybe why Hallmark shows don't appeal to me.

Hallmark in the UK isn't exactly like the US one but it's very similar. Boring, preachy dramas by day and boring, preachy movies by night. I don't b##ch about it though - that's why God invented the remote control.
I have hundreds of channels but I probably only watch about 6 of them on a regular basis.

I LOVE the Hallmark channel!

Double ditto!

Patrick Swayze didn't say that.

I watch some of the channel. There are some good golden oldies there.

But, but, but... When did M*A*S*H become a drama?

Wouldn't M*A*S*H be considered more of a dramedy?
