Didn’t they also air The Monkees.

Yep, I remember that channel. I used to watch Fantasy Island and Good Times on there when they showed those shows around 2015-16. Didn’t they shut it down because it was “too similar to MeTV and Antenna TV”? And now barely anyone watches The Cowboy Channel and there is FETV, which is much more similar to networks like MeTV than FamilyNet ever was.

FamilyNet used to be my main channel. It's what I settled for when seemingly everyone else on this site was able to get channels like Antenna TV and MeTV and I couldn't. I remember being livid when it got turned into the Cowboy Channel!

I wish it was still around. Now it’s that lame Cowboy Channel I have zero interest in.

That Cowboy Channel is still going? Cool. Must be doing okay. I remember laughing about it, thinking it’d last less than a year.

Not that bad. I knew I had seen this linked somewhere around here and I tracked it down. For 2023 it averaged 26,000 viewers daily, which was actually UP 8% over the previous year.
