Try MeTV. I watched that when I was with ATTUverse much more often that I would watch FETV.
Any you mention Wild Wild West...MeTV has that.

At least here in the western Chicago suburbs, there is a network called "Folk TV". It has "The Lone Ranger" and other shows, along with religous programming.

No, Wild Wild West is not on METV and hasn't been for a while sad to say.

This response is primarily for the 2 posters who defend Comcast incessantly.
Why does this topic say "Solved"? I hardly think so! First, I wish to say I'm not trying to be argumentative and I don't wish to get in a you-know-what contest, but I'd like to share with you an email I received from FETV (my area to which they refer, is Bay Area, California):
"Thank you for contacting us. For about a year, we leased the channel space in your area. However, the economic downtown forced a difficult decision to temporarily vacate your market. In an attempt to return, we have made multiple offers to compensate Comcast. However, they still refuse to carry FETV, despite launching networks that are not safe for family viewing! Please call 1-800-XFINITY to tell Comcast you want to see FETV in your area.
(....link for newsletter deleted...)
Thank you very much in advance for contacting Comcast, and hopefully we can return as quickly as we can.
Best,
- Team FETV" (Emphasis added.) [Note: I think they mean "down turn" instead of downtown.]
They may have left voluntarily, but the plan was only temporary. It is now Comcast who is preventing their return. I really don't understand why they're being so stubborn. So many people seem to really like and miss this channel. Don't get me wrong. Comcast has some redeeming qualities - but they really need to get this channel back on the air. There is SO VERY LITTLE wholesome TV programming any more. [For the record - I didn't grow up with alot of the programming on FETV (some of the later stuff, yes) - but what's wrong with wanting to watch TV without derogatory language or violence once in a while?]

FETV is now also gone from Minneapolis due to Comcast (not FETV). Very sad.
Yes, trying to call Comcast is a waste of time (for basicllay anythin), and they don't even have an email address to contact their customer service. Ridiculous!
The Minneapolis area doesn't even have a weather channel anymore; seems like a public service that should be included in the lineup, especially when bad weather is imminent.

FE TV states “our channel would no longer be available in your market on Comcast against our wishes”. “We have made multiple offers to compensate Comcast for carriage, but to no avail”.
It actually seems to me that Comcast is trying to drive away customers, or certainly does not care about customer preferences in programming. In place of FETV we now have PTLSD; a Jim Baker religious channel.

Yes, it seems that Comcast does not listen to their customers (they say they do) .
I also tried to give them feedback on losing FETV. If Comcast doesn't want us as customers, just say so upfront.

It could be worse. Here it looks as though Comcast replaced FETV with an all religious channel.
