What happened to the Comet TV channel??

I watch Comet TV every day on channel 328.  The last day or so the programing guide just said to be announced and now It looks like it was replaced by CW.  

What happened, and why was there no notice?

Paramount-Global owned channels dissociated with the CW effective September 1st. As a result, Comet now switches to CW programming at Primetime.

Hello @user_d12afa we know it is important to keep up to date on network changes! Are you currently running into an issue with this channel no longer showing for you to view? At times, a channel station may be removed or changed to another channel number if the network decided to change what station they broadcast on. It is also possible that a channel may be removed due to contract changes and/or channels no longer being renewed to be aired on our network. However, there are always typically announcements made for changes in your service at least 1-2 months in advanced via my your monthly statement. The last 1-2 pages typically will have notices for any changes with your service, so it is always a good idea to keep an eye on the bill for those potential changes.

Denver Channel 257 is on the latest lineup and NOT on the current list of channels changing. The online auto chat agent is less than worthless. Yes, the cable box was restarted with no change. Has Channel 257 Comet TV been removed or is it a glitch?? It’s easy. Yes or no??

I am having the same issue… all day it’s been a green screen. I called and was told to restart the box and I was like I know it’s not my box since my mom is having the same issue at her house. He still did the restart and nothing and I told him at least 6x it can’t be my service since my mom is having the same issue. So don’t know what’s going on.

I live in seattle washington and I watch channel 328 Comet all the time. Now it says to be announced and it says CW where Comet used to be. I am so ticked off, I pay top dollar for my channels and channel 328 Comet is my all time favorite It is the SCI FI channel. I want it back or please tell me where is the COMET network now. WHat channel has it been moved to.

Changes made to the Comet channel (#328 in WA) have done something to the audio.  It now sounds like the volume is "over-peaking" or going "off-scale" during regular dialogue, as well as with the background noises.  It's VERY annoying!  Can Comcast get it together and fix this?

Watch Comet of Sinclair's free "Stirr" app. Bonus, it streams in HD and many over the air stations that carry Comet or the retransmission on cable providers such as Xfinity are not in HD. Plus, you don't need cable or any type of subscription to watch!
