Default Wow, Sky Atlantic...
starts today, and what do we get in a week of quality broadcasting? Boardwalk Empire, some celebrities talking about their favourite shows, Blue Bloods, and uh...

...repeats of The X Files, 24, ER and Six Feet Under.

Woo.

I was really hyped for the new channel at first, now it will probably be one of my channel flickers when a program I am watching is on adverts.

Yeah a few of them have changed and I think SKY Living was just previously Living.

I've just checked and these new channels are going to confuse the hell out of me, FX on 124 or whatever but FX +1 has stayed at 165, it's easier when the +1 channels are just one up from their standard version. MTV been completely moved from all the other music channels as well, I know it doesnt really show music anymore but I still associated it with that and it was easy to find

I like the channels where they are now. I'm glad they've gotten rid of Sky 2 and 3. Nothing but bullcrap on those anyways.

I'm tempted to say what was anyone really expecting. Sure Sky hyped the heck out of it but it's basically HBO. And shock horror it's full of HBO shows. Boardwalk Empire is a fantastic new one so they are building the channel launch around that. It's okay that the rest of the channel isin't shitting brand new, award winning content 24/7.
