Comet TV on channel 1186 was replaced with Charge TV

It was a staple of my evening too. I’m gonna miss Mulder and Scully. My only consolation is that I actually do like CSI Miami, which is in the same time slot. Hopefully they’ll bring back Comet at some point.

Our households have the same tastes ... my wife was happy they have season 6 of CSI: Miami.

Anyways, both Comet and Charge (along with Roar and The Nest) are owned by the same company, the rather dodgy Sinclair Broadcast Group.  It's likely they asked for the swap for advertising purposes based on their 8/13/25 investor press release.

Also, on the schedule it shows the channel going back to Comet on 9/7 ... though that is likely just a Comcast mistake.  I'm not 4imprint certain.

Well we’ll see. I hope it goes back. 

@Zaxxon25, thanks for filling in everyone on more about this change. Would you mind letting us know where you are seeing the information that Comet will be returning on 9/7?

1) Go to the guide

2) select channel 1186

3) move forward in the guide to 9/7

4) the programming changes from Charge shows to Comet shows (the name of the channel on the guide does not change)

alternatively ...

1) Hit the Xfinity button

2) Search for X-Files (or any other Comet show like Grimm)

3) Go to episodes

4) Go to upcoming

5) It shows episodes airing starting 9/7

Xfinity is way too expensive for me as well. 

Totally agree. Way overpriced. I’m studying alternatives as we speak. Fire stick, antenna etc. Every time I ask for a better price they make it unattractive and I feel stuck. This is a very greedy and socially cruel company who will go the way of AT&T. They started sending people checks for 100’s of bucks to switch back to them. It was disgusting. This company Strong arms you and thinks that there’s no backlash but it will come, trust me. Greedy.
