Fox Sports 2
As a NASCAR fan, I was afraid that I would not be able to see the same racing events that I used to see on Speed when they rebranded the channel this past weekend. I was just proven correct. I now won't be able to see the Whelan Modified race that is airing on FoxSports 2 from Bristol tonight as Comcast doesn't have Fox Sports 2 in the channel lineup. I was able to watch it last year when it was on Speed.
I strongly encourage Comcast to rectify this situation and add Fox Sports 2 to the lineup. If I can't watch the things I want to watch because the channel isn't available, then I'm going to look for a cable provider who can provide it.

They have no intent to add Fox Sports 2 or MAV TV. Can't be because of band width because they recently dropped thier analog channels and what about the 50+ channels that are labeld as "To be announced"? And by the way, locally they announced the we now get the Oxygen channel. Programming Targeted for woman. Wonder how much thats going to cost?

Going to Fox Sports web site is fine, but doesn't work. Look at the size of this thread, look at the size of the MAVTV thread. The last few channels that were added to our local service has had next to no activity on these forums, requesting their additions. You want these channels? They are available on Dish and Direct TV

Just how much feedback do you need? You will not give us what it would cost so just how do you know people would not want it? Don't copy and paste your what you have already posted.Give us Facts!

As stated a few times in this thread...
The Comcast programming teams and local management teams constantly evaluate programming choices and make decisions based on customer interests, costs, channel bandwidth management and contractual obligations. The Comcast employees who participate in these forums certainly pass along your collective feedback, interests and concerns to those teams.
As with any business, situations may change based on customer demand, channel bandwidth opportunities, business opportunities, costs and contractual obligations.
Costs and customer feedback have a lot to do with any programming decision.

Nearly 1/3 through the racing season and yet to have heard a formalized response from Comcast concerning negotiations with Fox Sports to host their FS2 channel as part of their channel lineup. What is the status and when will action be taken?

The issue here is the lack of Local Management. It is mentioned in this thread but there is notheing local about this forum, as it's being moterated by someone in Philly and I'm in Washington State. You go into your local office and instead of someone in the know. you get phone numbers from people thousands of miles away. If there is local management they are being shielded from their customers. I have been involved in requesting Fox Sports 2 and MAV TV. Funny that MAV TV is in Philly. Western Washington is a hot bed for Sprint Car racing, a staple on MAV TV. But someone 3000 miles away won't know that.

They are more worried about trying to get all of Charters and Time Warner subcribers then they are worried about the subcribers they have now.So after they get everyones subcribers they will be to big for anyone to get customer service.Oh wait they don't have any customer service now.They need to have someone on these fourms from all the states that they cover,not just Ted that is someplace in the Bahamas. She don't like it when we post links to just show what really is going on.After she deletes them she say don't know what you are talking about.
