Looks like a channel for the rubbish American shows that not even Watch or GOLD will pick it up.

I think LG/Virgin Media only want after it due to Turner Broadcasting launching it.

So what channels can VM launch Howard? Excluding HD variants and the vastly over-rated SA, please do enlighten me as to which wonderful channels we are missing out on?

No disrespect Harry but the hd variants are a must universal hd especially is past a joke how long vm have waited for that,this overrated sa really does make me laugh thou it has some of the best shows to grace our shores from the us ie,game of thrones,banshee,veep,true detectives,nurse jackie,blue bloods and penny dreadfull just to name a few.Granted it's not a channel I watch everyday but at the moment I am watching it more than sky 1.
Everybody has there own opinions personally do not watch sd channels only hd my epg on my sky box and TiVo only show favourite channels which are hd channels only ;)

Everyone indeed has their opinions Howard and I fail to see how any channel not currently on VM can be "past a joke".

I was missing Sky Arts 2 HD for some while but the alternative of a dish simply wasn't on. Then lo and behold the HD channel was negotiated on and added to the channel list. I was lucky. Perhaps this channel you want will come too but until then it is give up on VM or watch the SD version or do not watch it at all. Sadly those are the only options.

I also am a HD nut...Everything I watch and Record I look for the HD version first.
I agree that they are a must, just to improve the amount of HD channels available on VM. I know not all channels appeal to everyone and that's why there is such a vast choice available to us, but everyone should be able to watch what they want in HD ;)

If VM could target all the HD variants that we don't have, but still only be missing Sky Atlantic, that could push them above Sky, especially on top of the channels they have managed to acquire so far.

I'm not moaning, because what we have is fantastic, just from a personal point of view, this could push them even closer and maybe beyond Sky in terms of what channels and especially the HD content that we can watch.

The more HD the better...until 4K comes along :td: hahaha sorry guys.
