Contacting Decades TV through Facebook messenger

[Frank Gannucci]

I have been contacting Decades through their website asking if they are coming to my market. I contacted Weigel Broadcasting and asked the same thing. No response.

Whenever I ask them through Facebook this is their response to my questions.
“Is the Decades channel coming to the Naples/Fort Myers market? In this market, your sister station MeTV is on WZVN Channel 26-2.”

“Thank you for contacting Decades. If you are messaging about a channel outage or technical issue, please reach out to our affiliate relations team at decades.com/contact. Thank you!”

No further response.

Months later, I asked through Facebook messenger if Decades will ever stream online. The response is the same as above. No other response yet.

What do you think?

This is one weakness of MeTV and I imagine Decades. Antenna TV is responsive to contacts, and MeTV definitely is not.

Couldn’t agree more. I remember contacting Antenna TV with a question about whether they were going to air the Yule Llog last year and they promptly replied with “Yes.”

If you have a strong enough antenna signal, you could try to reach Decades on its Tampa Bay channel 13.5 or if you want to see it streamed online, there is a program called Locast that streams OTA channels from different US cities. I would sign up except they haven't reached Buffalo yet so I don't know if it would work for me. Locast is available in over 20 US cities, including Miami, West Palm Beach, and Tampa, which might be your best bet. You can find Decades there on channel 13.5 as well as Antenna TV on 10.2 and Me-Tv on 32.2.

Wish I knew how to spoof my location so I could watch Decades on Locast.

I’ve also found that contacting the streaming service Crackle is a waste of time. They never respond to anything either. One episode of What’s Happening Now will not play for some reason and some episodes are missing this time as well so I contacted them about that over a month ago and they never replied and the issue with the one not playing still isn’t fixed.

Thank you. Not too sure if Tampa would work for me on Locast since The stations that I have aren’t Tampa stations. The CBS station that I have is different from the CBS stations that are in Tampa and Miami and the dame thing applies for all other stations. I will give it a try though.

I don’t know how accurate this is but Decades responded to my question about weekend binge of the Honeymooners and they said in 2021. Wonder if it will be the weekend after New Years and WPIX’s own marathon (assuming WPIX does one).

Tried Locast.org and because I don’t live in the Tampa bay market, I am unable to watch any out of town stations. I live two and a half hours away from Tampa and two hours away from Miami. I live in a different TV market than Miami and Tampa.
