Check out their website they have a lot of info on their schedules, shows, and fun quizzes too.....
Those early westerns--- Wagon Train, Raw Hide, The Rebel have real good storylines---very well written..... I watch them Saturday morning sometimes while I'm doing housework!
Thanks! I will log on! As a little girl of the fifties I never would have watched any westerns or cowboy shows! Now I really enjoy them! I was sad one of the channels (don't remember which) took Father Knows Best off! I liked that line up better! I'd also like more shows like Make Room For Daddy and My Little Margie! There was a show about a secretary...

I think Moonchilde hit the nail on the head. Classics! The old shows that they are rerunning are classic. Most of what I watch will probably be rerun years from now. I can't stand the "raw sewage" , as one post put it! I wouldn't put it in my body 😳, so why pollute my mind! I like shows that teach me things or are about current issues. Once in a while, I do like some "fluff" to give my mind a break! Love my DVR!🤗

I have very little interest in what is in TV. I dislike most of it. I'll leave it at that so I don't bore everyone with an extremely long list.

When we first got directv, our satellite radio stations were Sirius. I loved their variety and quality. Now, we have something called "Sonic" , I like it but not so much as what Sirius offers or what my family gets with Comcast. This is what I usually have on tv..

I block sports, some home shopping channels, TLC, Sci-fi, and the list goes on and on.
Why would you need to block channels? If you don't want to watch any given channel, then just don't watch it.

@MyGirlsMom: Sirius radio comes with DirectTV?? If that's the case, I may have to rethink my cable provider.

Hi @sallybusky, no, they used to, once upon a time, now it's Sonic.

Hi @Tinkrbl44,
I guess you could say, it's 'complicated.' LOL
I have my own channel line up of what I like to see, so essentially, they're blocked.
BUT
There are certain channels I never want to 'land on' s as I won't be counted as a viewer and the channel profits from it.

Hard to say what I don't ever watch on television. As much as I find myself disliking certain shows, when people are discussing them if I want to join in (or just understand the conversations, even if I don't participate) I feel that if I haven't watched it I can't begin to comprehend all the opinions. Plus, if I haven't seen it my opinion won't be an informed one. (One of my sisters, when were were kids, was famous for saying "I haven't tried it but I don't like it!") So I have a tendency to at least "sample" lots of programs. Interesting thread, @MyGirlsMom!
