Time Warner just got it as well. From what I heard, it started on 10/10/10 at 10AM. And yes, it is an amazing channel.

Channel 211 here with Time-Warner. They have it grouped with the Disney and other kids channels.

I was looking for it just last night, after Sak mentioned it on facebook. It was there, but it wanted me to upgrade to get it. Which DISH Network package do you have?

Looks like I've got it. Cool channel.

top 250

Yep, finally found it on the dish site -- it's on the comparison guide, but not the lists for each package. Top 250 is required, and while it's cool, it's not worth $10 a month, esp since I have close to 90% of the Wonder Years on my laptop.

While I'm not much in the camp of those who worry themselves about stuff like this, I thought it was interesting to note that Hasbro apparently owns a 50% stake in the network

They have 2 original game shows which are all basically infomercials for Hasbro board games. They are also showing GI Joe, Transformers, and other shows with serious toy tie-ins.

My kids are all over this.

Would love to watch some old Wonder Years episodes again... Alas, I checked and the channel is not available for me (Directv).
