What happened to GetTV?

GetTV used to be a great source for classic Hollywood films of the Golden Era. Now in the past few weeks they've gotten rid of most of the old classics and are showing TV shows and variety shows from the 1960s-80s. What gives? Is anyone else as annoyed as I am?

Re: What happened to GetTV?

They switched from the classic movie format to a "general entertainment" format at the beginning of this month, which sucks, because GetTV was basically "Turner Classic Movies" for cord-cutters. There are enough classic tv channels as there is, and I doubt anyone was clamoring for "Airwolf" reruns.

Yeah, they're dead, they're...all messed up!

Re: What happened to GetTV?

Your sentiments echo mine exactly. This was a stupid change. Fortunately, occasional classics seem to be creeping in - last night they showed "Meet John Doe," and a few nights before that "Mr. Soft Touch" with Glenn Ford and Evelyn Keyes. So maybe all is not totally lost.

Re: What happened to GetTV?

Right
think they took it off here

They had GetTV
ThisTV
MeTV
RetroTV
and many lesser TVs

Then they added RFD TV
and IV TV
and Decadence TV
or something like that

Networks get too horrible
RFD TV went from Mayberry
to rifles, hunting and ammunition
Nobody wants terrorism like that
except in redstates

Decadence TV
wasn't too bad
until they started
showing their own garbage
and too much D Cavett

D Cavett who could use
a healthy dose of Sunday School
that D Cavett that

But GetTV was good
for its few weeks on the air
and then **poof**
no more good GetTV to get
on any Network

I think I remember seeing that network name, they changed so much network names on cable TV.
