Court TV gone!?

The other day Court TV was showing a game show even though the menu still called it Court TV. That resolved after a couple hours. Now today the channel has been replaced with grit TV. I've seen old forums so I'm sure the answer is going to be that my local affiliate is to blame because this seems to have happened in other states throughout the past year, but does Xfinity send any kind of notification to people ahead of time? Court TV is one of the channels I watch the most so this is giving me a very large reason to finally get with the times and cancel cable.

All, 

Thank you for sharing your feedback. Please keep in mind, that the change in programming from Court TV to Grit TV was made by the channel owner, not Comcast.

Court TV is still being offered in select markets, you can find your channel listing for Court TV here: https://www.courttv.com/where-to-watch/

Please let us know if you have any questions or need anything more from us.

@XfinityJessie​ This link takes you to ch 357 in the Seattle area. NOT Court TV

@XfinityJessie​ This information is WRONG!  When you go to 357 as advised in that website, it just takes you to GRIT.

Correct, 1186 goes immediately to GRIT.  I am not pleased with this change.  COURT TV is the one channel I watch consistently.

For some reason, Xfinity decided to change Court TV to Grit. I have no idea why. Now, the only way you can watch it is on YouTube. I never got a notification of the change, I just had to google it.

This is likely the final straw for us to get with the times and cancel cable. Court TV was really the only channel I watched except for during football season. Now that I can watch live court hearings for free on YouTube (law and crime channel) and other shows on Hulu, I don't see a reason to be paying $200 a month.

@user_d49b2f​ I just ordered another roku for my tv room tv ( I have one on the kitchen tv). I bought Rokus for 2 other tv's when cable started charging 5.99 a month for that stupid adaptor ...cheaper than renting cable boxes for kitchen, sewing room etc. Ridiculous charges for the boxes!! Like buying a car and then they say "you want a steering wheel?? extra charge for that" They should furnish the boxes as you are paying for their service already. Like MA BELL we charge like that because we can. Now I understand they will be charging 14.95 for the modem????? Sheese really getting bad, if I could DVR my shows on something else, I would get rid of ALL boxes!

Bring back Court TV!!! There are enough old shows from yesteryear on. We care about what’s going on today and Court TV shows what’s really happening live in the moment.

You do realize that Comcast has no control over what is shown on a particular station?  Comcast only brings to you what is given to them.

@tropidise Hi there, thanks for the post. Have you checked any of your recent statements over the last few months? Near the bottom of our statements, information about channel guide updates will be provided there. Let us know if that helps clear up the concern.

Good afternoon,

Why did Xfinity stop CourtTV? I would have appreciated you notifying me. It's a favorite channel and would like to hear from you on the reason you no longer suppport it.

Thanks,
N Taylor

OK found a workaround - there is a CourtTV app and it plays live - so that’s good for now

Court Tv is broadcast live on the free streaming services freevee & pluto tv. The co that owns ctv decided to replace it with grit tv as I was told by xfinity customer service.
