@UncleWill We do not have any current plans to add MeTv to our line up options at this time. I'm sure we'll make a huge announcement if it ever becomes available. Until then, is there anything else I can help you with? How's your internet service working out for you?
Looking at the MeTV Toons "Where to watch", there are no Detroit stations carrying it, so Comcast cannot carry it as it is a BROADCAST network carried by a local TV station.
As posted, Comcast can only add MeTV Toons if a LOCAL TV STATION also carries it. If they created a new subchannel for it, then they have to make a deal with Comcast as there are all sorts of retransmission fees. Broadcasters are EXTREMELY GREEDY. To be honest, Comcast is trying to keep some costs down because they are losing customers like crazy due to the sharply increasing retransmission fees.
@UncleWill , Networks like Discovery, History and similar are CABLE networks only carried by cable/satellite/streaming services. MeTV Toons is a BROADCAST network only carried by TV stations that BROADCAST over the air and can be received with an antenna.

While you're at it, please go a few miles down I-94 and add it to Ann Arbor as well. Thanks.
