The new digital basic channel (basic digital cable, did you catch that?) debuts on February 17, 2005. St. Valentine's Day. Niiiiiiiice.

Thank you Sumner Redstone. Next up: the orgy and gladiator channels.

Another channel I won't watch. If I had kids, I'd lock it out, but I don't, so I just won't tune it in.

I suppose KY Jelly will be one of the channel's big advertisers!

Odd how they celebrate a sex life nowadays. If people want to be gay so be it but they continue to attempt to push it on people as if it's just like man and woman. I suppose we can have a channel targeted at every kind of sexual behavior.

MTV gets an average of 30 mins a year if that in my house.Usually just to see what agenda they are trying to push this year. Literally the worst network going today and of the last 13 years. MTV has become a total disgrace. Thank God though for VH1 Classic...that station kicks ass.

They have this as 'digital basic' but we still have to pay more for DIY, come one now!

``Next up: the orgy and gladiator channels.``

Now a gladiator channel would be my last straw.

Good!

This new gay agenda pushing channel will devour any profits left over by the other losers in the Via Com whore house.

It will be as successful as Ellen Degenerate and Rosie the Hippo when they came out of the closet.

Everytime I start to wonder why I got rid of Cable in the first place, something like this comes up and I remember why I did.

Yet another reason for mandating the "H" warning to parental notices on the guides.

I can't believe the cable companies would be stupid enough to put this on basic cable. This should be an add on service.

This is business stupidity.

Mark my words, it'll flop and then become part of Basic Cable... just like BET so nearly everyone with cable will be forced to subsidize it.
