Cozi TV to debut December 20

[Sal]

No, your eyes aren't playing tricks on you. The much-anticipated debut of the US's newest classic TV subchannel Cozi TV will happen at least a week earlier than expected. Cozi TV will replace the falsely-named NBC Nonstop (because now it will! ) this Thursday December 20 with a lineup of classic TV series from the 50s to the 70s with sitcoms that are mostly public domain content but are still worth watching. The first week will feature mainly Christmas episodes including 5 straight episodes of "The Adventures Of Ozzie & Harriet" beginning with "Late Christmas Gift" which will officially launch the new network at 6:00 am. The full Day 1 schedule looks like this:


6:00 am The Adventures Of Ozzie & Harriet - Late Christmas Gift
6:30 The Adventures Of Ozzie & Harriet - Christmas Tree Lot
7:00 The Adventures Of Ozzie & Harriet - A Piano For The Fraternity
7:30 The Adventures Of Ozzie & Harriet - Busy Christmas
8:00 The Adventures Of Ozzie & Harriet - The Girl In The Emporium
8:30 The Lone Ranger
9:00 Lassie
9:30 Lassie
10:00 The Beverly Hillbillies - Home For Christmas
10:30 The Beverly Hillbillies - Christmas At The Clampetts
11:00 Burns and Allen - Company For Christmas
11:30 The Ruggles
12:00 PM The Adventures Of Ozzie & Harriet - The Miracle
12:30 Liberace Christmas
1:00 Highway To Heaven

9:30 Racket Squad
10:00 The Lone Ranger
10:30 Roy Rogers
11:00 Four Star Playhouse
11:30 COZI TV Preview

At first glance, I would say that looks a lot better than TV One!

Having seen the program lists for the first week, I can't see a big pattern emerging as to what shows will be on what times. You'll have to tune in to see or look it up here but so far I'd have to say it sounds promising.

The website looks good too! Check out the featured shows, videos and games just for fun!

Eh. It looks ok, I guess. When I try to see if I get Cozi TV it says that its NBC Digital Weather. I'm assuming that changes on Dec.20.

[gidgetgrape]

I typed my zip code into the channel locator and it looks like I'll be able to get it. That's a shocker. I'm looking forward to seeing Ozzie and Harriet. I like that show, but have only seen it on DVD.

[Jude The Obscure]

Is it a goal for this network to eventually go nationwide? if so, why don't they just buy out RTV? There is NO way 4 classic/retro OTA digital networks will survive.

Where I live, I'd be happy to settle for one!

[MRPITT]

I have been watching this a lil bit today. Some shows I noticed during their preview that I am looking forward to are

Six Million Dollar Man
Magnum P.I.
Marcus Welby
Bionic Woman
Banacek

[Ronny G]

I've been watching, too.
I watched the 2-part Lassie Christmas Story. Timmy was older so it was from the later seasons.
I also like their promos: brief 1-minute clips of future shows like Charlie's Angels during commercials.
The picture quality of the Marcus Welby clip they showed looked better than when I watched it last on RTV. I may have to start re-recording it again.

[gilligan fanatic]

Got it on right now, the aspect ratio seems weird

[Ronny G]

I had the same problem. There were black bars on all 4 sides of the picture so it looked like it had a frame. I get the channel through my DVR which has a digital tuner. I changed the aspect ratio on my dvr from 4:3 letterbox to 4:3 pan & scan and now the black bars are gone and the picture fills the entire screen and looks normal now.

[mets82]

I think I have the black bar problem as well. I have watched only a little bit of it today because I'm not really a fan of the shows they have on. But again, I'll give some of these shows a shot. Cant really make a judgement call on the channel as its only been on less than a day.

[Regulus]

Five gets you Ten those "Black Bars" are the future site of on-screen advertising (That's "Pop-Ups", Scrolls and Banners for those of you in Rio Linda!). I think I'll pass. NBC wants to put RTV, Antenna TV and ME-TV out of business, then they'll do a "TV Land" and we'll end back on Square One. There isn't anything they are showing that I can't find on DVD in one form or another.

[qixpoet]

So far, I like cozi TV. I watched it on NBC LA 4.2.

I am curious about something.

What happened to the theme song on petticoat junction. It wasn't on the Xmas episode.

[TeeVeeCloset]

I am watching Cozi TV on a standard old fashioned 4:3 aspect ratio TV from Time Warner Cable (NYC), checked with a friend viewing with FIOS but still on a standard old TV. It is UNWATCHABLE because we are getting the black bars only on screen left and right (none on top or bottom) so it is stretching the picture, yet only the promos are airing full screen. I emailed them and am awaiting a reply. I have no DVR, so hense no way of changing the aspect ratio especially on what I prefer as I have three working old standard ratio TV's because between Antenna TV, Me-TV & my classic DVD collection I have no use or need to own one as 75% of what I view was produced before 1980 besides being an avid news watcher.

For the poster who mentioned not hearing the original theme on certain sitcoms, namely "Beverly Hillbillies", for this "soft launch" about 75% of the programs are Public domain episodes that you can find at any dollar store on DVD with the original music replaced.

I love this idea of Cozi, but so far, between it being a very cheap launch, again it is unwatchable to the classic hardcore audience it is geared towards, as most "classic" watchers find no need to see the cameras or a view as if you were in the studio audience because the show is being broadcast and produced in 16:9. Those TV's & HD are designed for Sports, not I Love Lucy. I hate that standard 4:3 TV's have vanished, I hope someday (like vinyl records & players are enjoying a comeback) that nostalgia will make some company produce wooden cabinet TV's!

Could the aspect ratio be some kind of glitch they'll straighten out.I don't have this channel yet,but it sounds interesting.
