Patty Duke · 11-27-2015, 04:54 PM

It is called BlueHighways TV channel 73 on Dish. I saw the following listed now, Lassie, Empty Nest, Grace Under Fire, Sgt. Preston, Drew Carey, Ellen, Spin City, BUT they recently said this on their Facebook:
BlueHighways TV: On December 1, we'll be making some significant programming changes and we wanted to keep you aware of it. No infomercials. We're bringing back some of our old favorite sitcoms. Tomorrow, we'll be publishing a page on our site with some of the new shows on it. Thanks for asking about it

https://www.facebook.com/BlueHighwaysTV

I am sure excited!! I have no idea what all they'll be adding yet.

sounds like laff

This sounds great! I knew we had the channel on Dish, but I never liked any of their programming. I'm so glad they're changing to classic TV shows, since I don't get any of the other channels like Antenna, Me-Tv, etc. I went on their website but it didn't say anything yet. I can't wait. Thanks for the info!!

The shows I listed are on my Dish Guide now, I hope they add more. They are telling people on Facebook to send them an email with suggestions.

I wonder if this is on Directv?

MRPITT · 11-28-2015, 11:43 AM

That laff.

I have directv and receive it through my local package. I needed a hr21 directv tuner to get it.

If the listings services are right, they'll be simulcasting Laff's schedule from 10AM to 3AM.

I see differences in shows if locateTV is correct. I'll put the schedule up for both so you can see the same days schedules.

What do you mean? Both of those links have the same exact schedule from 10AM to 3AM. The 3AM to 10AM hours are the only hours that are different on weekdays.

Patty Duke · 11-28-2015, 05:54 PM

Okay one example

At 2 am Bluehighways is airing Ghost Patrol

At 2 am Laff is airing Life's Funniest Moments

I wonder why you see a different schedule?

snowpeck · 11-29-2015, 04:20 AM

That's 3AM. You must be in Central time. So in your case, it's 9AM-2AM that's a simulcast of Laff while the rest is different.

rodwayne · 11-30-2015, 03:16 PM

I can take it or leave it.Not a fan of most of these shows except Sgt.Preston.Movies ok;just the classic ones.

tvfan25 · 11-30-2015, 09:13 PM

While I was watching The Drew Carey Show while ago, it said Laff in the bottom right corner. But it's still Blue Highways TV. We also have FETV, but that channel will show shows and Cozi TV is in the bottom corner. Dish Network must only get some of the shows from Cozi and Laff, not the whole schedule.

snowpeck · 11-30-2015, 09:31 PM

If you go to Laff's website, it says it's available on Channel 73 on Dish in every TV market. http://www.laff.com/find-us/
