I noticed this while I was flipping through the channels last night. I can finally watch RAW and ECW in high def.

Dish just got these? Wow.

I'm surprised as well. I'm still with my local cable company and we've had all these stations for months. I think DirecTV has had them even longer.

My cable company just added Versus and the Golf Channel in HD. I was surprised to see that as I didn't think the demand for those stations would be high.

Re: Dish Network just got new HD Channels

I'm still waiting for all three of those channels.

I don't understand how Charter decides which HD channels to add. I have VS/Golf, Discover, TLC, A&E, and History all in HD...do those channels really have that much demand? Not to mention Mojo, which always has blacked out hockey/basketball games.

We were promised FSN in HD in time for the Brewers season, still waiting...

Quit crying people. My company just now got TNT, A&E, HGTV, Food, History and NGC in HD. We have like 10 non local HD channels now.

That is what sucks about cable. They add stupid channels that really have no benefit in HD.

We have Discovery HD Theater, but not normal Discovery where all the good new shows our.

Re: Dish Network just got new HD Channels

I would have Dish or DirectTV right now, but my apartment building doesn't give me a good line of sight for the HD satellite

Damn tree in the way and they (landlord) won't let them install the dish on the roof


Stuck with SUCKCAST for eternity now !!!

Re: Dish Network just got new HD Channels

I've got Comcast and we get these HD channels: PBS, CBS (Boston), ABC (Boston), NBC (Boston), ABC (Manchester), Nat Geo, Discovery, Fox (Boston), MHD, TBS, HGTV, TNT, USA, A&E, TV38 (owned by CBS), HD Theater, CNN, Weatherscan, Universal, Golf/VS., ESPN, ESPN2, NESN, Comcast Sports New England, NFL, Food, CW, SciFi, Animal Planet, Cinemax, HBO, History, Starz, Showtime, and Mojo.

So that's like 35 channels. Pretty much anything I want to watch, I can watch in HD now, with the exception of only a few channels.

WWE, golf, decent movies, reruns of all your law shows like NCIS, Law and Order. New episodes of a great series in "Psych" and a good series in "Monk".

PotC and 40 year old version on sometime this week.

I think I read somewhere USA is the most watched cable network, it's really underrated.

I think it was underrated back in the day for sure. Those highlighted is all im interested in though.

It would be great if they could show some sporting events other than golf like TBS used to do.

They show dog shows and tennis!

Exciting I know

I am surprised they don't have some kind of contract with college football or show basketball or something, even if it's like a middle of the week game. I would much rather watch it on USA then get ESPNs lowest level team.
