Freeview channels thread

I don't it'll last long, if they're true about their intentions for the channel

It won't - it's due to relaunch on Wednesday 17th January:

Its like the love kids of Blaze and the travel channel.

The Travel Channel version of the above promo making it clear that it's changing and is being renamed as DMAX.

Thats confusing.. So its only rebranding on one platform.

Sky’s EPG shows separate listings for Travel and DMAX from Thursday onwards. Is the Travel version of that promo being shown on DTT omly or on all platforms? Certainly strange and confusing if the latter.

In relation to this thread: https://www.tvforum.co.uk/tvhome/turner-eyes-rescue-deal-trutv-42278/ TRUTV looks set to be dead..

There hasn't really been a TV channel failure from a big, established broadcaster like this in a long time. TruTV seems like it was a mistake from the start.

If the channel had managed to get other programmes it set out to acquire, it might have had a chance. Simple fact is, it could't cut the mustard and then transformed itself into a female crime channel that is already overcrowded. Your TV and Quest red have had to branch out to get additional content and viewers in the door.

Shame it never expanded its Adult swim offering...

The DMAX brand refresh happened at 6am today - using the German idents from 7 years ago!

Just to check were there still using the 2010 idents you had right up until yesterday?

This is the oldest trick in the book this lot has done, since Quest got the treatment already using cast off idents.

Yes, until 5.30 this morning.
