When is Verizon FiOS planning on adding some NEW HD channels?

Re: NEW HD Channels

Verizon has been telling us that BBC America is next on the list - for 2 years in a row. Don't hold your breath. I left TW expecting that some of the HD channels I left behind would be added soon; but nooooooo.

Or when pigs fly. (Though I'm willing to bet they'll add yet another sports channel before that.)

For those of you with kids, Disney Jr the Channel will be available:

 

Verizon FiOS will offer Disney Junior, the channel in your area.

As of March 23, 2012, your family will be able to tune in to Disney Junior, the channel. Come back in March for additional details. In the meantime, join our Facebook page, or click here to find out more about Disney Junior on TV - our shows and schedule.

Great Disney!! Where kids make tons of money for the people that exploit them, and show little about the real world. You can tell I am not a fan.:smileymad: HD2 would be much better. But I have been waiting for BBC America for a very long time! Comcast has BBC America in HD, and since Verizon has been sucking up to them so much, you would think we would have it too.

So the next HD channel to be added is a Disney channel, well to quote the Churchlady "ISN'T THAT SPECIAL"!!!!!!!!!  Gee, still NO BBCA-HD or Cartoon-HD amazing. Comcast has them now, as much as I hate to say it (because I do dislike Comcast), my contract ends in October, I'll really have to weigh my options then.

 

Also just more proof that all this VOTING nonsense the Mods keep pushing is an utter waste of time. I do believe BBCA-HD is up to almost 350 votes. Obviously those votes mean nothing.

Re: NEW HD Channels

I would rather see more hd. I don't understand why a channel like NASA tv is not offered either. That is free.

Go figure.

Re: NEW HD Channels

The poor way Verizon rolled out FIOS in Bethelhem, NY, and the poor way Verizon has followed through on its obligation to update its HD offerings is proof positive that Verizon needs a new management team. There will be a wholesale switch back to Time Warner Cable if things don't change very fast. More cartoons; gerrrrrr.
