Comfy TV: A Proposal for a NEW 24/7 Digital OTA Classic TV Channel

[stevearino]

Dear To Whom It May Concern,

I have a proposal for Nexstar Media, Inc. (parent company of Antenna TV): to launch a brand-new, 24/7 Digital OTA Channel known as Comfy TV.

In its present, idea stage, Comfy TV is a 24/7 Digital OTA Channel devoted to Classic Television from the 1950s to the 2010s, combining the best shows on Antenna TV, Laff, Me-TV and Decades to name some examples; unlike OTHER Digital OTA Channels, each episode of each series is 100% Complete, 100% Uncut, AND 100% Unedited, as originally broadcast on ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, The CW, UPN and The WB, with a variety of different Genres included on Comfy TV--AND most importantly, NO Credit Crunching unlike Antenna TV.

A very tentative launch date for Comfy TV shall be on Monday, September 6, 2021--coincidentally Labor Day--and shall feature Series Debuts of programs included on the inaugural Comfy TV lineup, the lineup of which shall include the following, ALL TIMES ET / PT, with Company Credits included:

Great ideas! That would be wonderful if someone would create a channel your suggesting! I love your TGIF idea! Nice work!

That's an excellent channel. Btw, you and I should collaborate on a channel. I think it would be really fun. Some of your shows on your station would be on mine.
