As much as the Cablevision subscribers are happy their channels are back (which is a wonderful thing), don't forget how they never gave their customers any info that they were going to shut those channels off on New Year's day. I think that was a terrible thing to do. They should have given everyone some kind of warning before they did it. Just my opinion.

They didn't know though- it was sort of a spur of the moment thing that just happened.

We're better off without food network anyway. Too many overweight people in America.

It's not like people pay Cablevision to see HGTV and Food Network and suddenly don't see it without warning or notification.


Oh wait...

you're wrong. Read the not so fine print. you don't pay for that particular channel...you pay for a package of channels that is subject to change without notice. It sucks but that's the way it is.

There's a million reasons to hate Cablevision and the Dolans, but this is ridiculous.

I don't know. I liked watching the different shows and get recipe ideas from there.

If it were the fast food network I would agree with you.
