WOW! I mean, I like most of these shows, but this channel is basically now USA2.

USA Network is now programming Sleuth, while SCI FI is programming Chiller (both as of 1/1/2009).

USA did a good job of making it so none of the programs are on USA Network and Sleuth at the same time.

I noticed Becker on Universal HD, too.

Yep, Universal HD has been USA-ified too. Becker, Monk, Law & Order: CI, WWE Raw, etc.

From a quick look at Universal HD's schedule, seems as if:
Monk - Monday nights only
Becker - Friday marathons only
L&O: CI - random
WWE Raw - Saturdays only

The network itself is not going to change, but some of the programming might. It should stay the same focus (just maybe some more shows from SCI FI will air).

I mean, Sleuth is still a police investigation network - all the shows are just that - it's just except for Da Vinci's Inquest and Cold Squad - all shows can be found on USA Network.

I just checked my star Sight Guide and Universal HD has another Becker Marathron from 8:00 am until 6:00 pm CT Time.

Chocoholic · 01-04-2009, 04:44 PM

I thought USA network was the Sleuth network!

I don't think we get the Sleuth network in my area, unless it's digital. I don't watch those crime shows anyway. I only tune into USA for the occasional Wings rerun.

Funny how USA used to be known for showing endless reruns of Wings and one of their most popular origional series stars a former Wings cast member.

USA Network and Sleuth Network are like Sister Network's

don't like it, needs more variety, and all those shows are already too played out.
