UFO HD coming to Cablevision ?

Hi all,

I just read that Cablevision (presumably a US cable company?)
will have the rights to "VOOM" suite of 15 HDTV channels beginning
July 1st. One of these channels is "Family Room HD", which
broadcasts the HDTV versions of UFO on a daily basis.

So that may be good news for anyone here who has Cablevision
cable... (unfortunately, I have Comcast)

Marc

Cablevision is in New Jersey. They also go under Optimum Online.

Jeepers, I never thought I'd want Cablevision over Comcast. Do you at least
get the YES Network? (Yankees Baseball)

I don't get YES since I have comcast, Cablevision does get it. I'm stuck
with the Philly channels. FIOS gets YES and a few other good channels.

Ahh, South Jersey! Don't feel so bad, we used to live in Boston and worked
right across from Fenway Park. (SHUDDER!)

Well, that channel "Family Room HD" is already available on Dish
Network. And in the race to have the most HDTV channels, it
is certainly possible that it may show up eventually on
DirecTV, Comcast, etc.

Of course, by the time that happens, Family Room HD will probably
no longer be showing UFO... :-) At least, that's what happened
to me with the Sci-Fi Channel, which dropped UFO before our
cable company picked up the channel...
