Bad news for viewers for Antenna TV in Lexington KY and surrounding areas. - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

WTVQ is getting rid of it come Thursday for some idiotic channel called Quest. 65.3 will be it's new home. Yet, pretty much nobody unless they have a high powered antenna will be able to get it. I've rescanned all my TV's and it won't pick up the sister networks (this tv and get tv) so, unless you can view those already. No more Antenna TV.

I am so ticked off. This is a bunch of crap.

well, you're not missing much the way they edit shows and crunch the credits. Shame; they used to be one of the better "retro-channels".

I love Murphy Brown, The Hogan Family and Benson though and you cannot find them anywhere else. Ugh.

I agree

It could be worse. Many of their new shows aren't edited at all, though not all. Alice has more in it than what Logo showed on Antenna, about 23 minutes per episode. Head of the Class, Hogan Family, and Murphy Brown are the unedited episodes and also, Logo has no variety (same show in 6-8 hour blocks!) whereas Antenna has lots of variety. I'd rather watch Antenna than Logo. Now THAT'S a crap channel. I watched an episode of All in the Family (ONE, mind you) and I timed it and over 6 minutes of actual episode was missing! Be glad Antenna doesn't air 17-18 1/2 minutes of their shows and shows about 4 minutes more than Logo.

Checked out the Wikipedia entry, and the stuff on Quest seems to be an incredibly valid reason why you should call it idiotic (IOW, I don't blame you).

It is pointless trying to argue with that poster, he is basically a spammer now saying he hates the Antenna credit crunch in 95% of his posts. Never mind the fact that almost all stations crunch credits today.

I’ll take Quest any day over Antenna.

Exactly. Frankly he just sounds bitter.
