Cox removes El Rey Network
I went to watch one of my favorite shows last night on El Rey network and was greeted with the message "Programming on this channel is unavailable at this time."
I spent over 2 hours on CHAT and on...

I've never heard of that channel. I did discover Cox has a free preview of Showtime, EPIX, Sony, Hallmark and Game Show Network (odd). This freebie seems to only be the on-demand programs because the "live" channels said I needed to subscribe.
Thanks for the heads up. I checked out Showtime and Epix both On-Demand and the Contour website. Neither was available live, as you said. I noticed FF was available, though really not necessary since there aren't any commercials. Hallmark was available too, but it's not my thing, I didn't find Sony and I didn't even look for Game Show Network. How long is the freebie?
The only real impact of no access to "live" programming for those channels is that recording isn't possible. We should probably stockpile recorded movies now, when we can, since some regular TV seasons will probably end early because taping was suspended due to COVID-19. And, the MLB season is going to be significantly delayed, possibly cancelled. Does anyone have any good movie recommendations on those channels? I watched "Overlord" (2018) on Epix last night. In my opinion, that was a long way to go for not much. So, don't bother with that one.
Good movies...nowadays...what's that? I think the last good movie was Britain's Darkest Hour. I started watching The Tudors series on Showtime. It's okay.
