Universal TV, best known for its diet of NCIS and CSI series, will no longer be available from 27th January 2020
This follows the announcement that 5Spike will cease broadcasting in January. Could this be the beginning of many more scheduled channel closures as the streamers take over?
Perhaps we should re-name this thread 'Going Soon on Virgin Media'? |

It easy to know why Universal Channel is closing. To make way for Sky Comedy to launch.
VH1 shows can easy move over to other ViacomCBS Channels like 5Star and BET.
I think Comedy Central Extra will be the next ViacomCBS Channel to go.
On Sky all ViacomCBS Channels are broadcasting on FOUR transponders but ViacomCBS are also letting space for three channels (Nicktoons, Nick Jr. and Nickelodeon) and sitting beside Channel 4's Music Channels.
