I'll be losing Impact this week

Postby The Legend » Mar 30, '14, 11:27 am

Apparently Viacom, the owners of Spike TV, are in a negotiation fight with my cable company and they will be dropping off on Tuesday which means I won't be seeing anymore Impact episodes. And it extends further than that to Comedy Central, MTV and other channels.

Who's your cable provider? That must be a pretty serious fight if Viacom's pulling out all of its channels.

Viacom wanted to raise all of their prices 40% which would have jacked the prices all up. My cable provider is a local provider that I'm sure no one has heard of which also keeps things cheaper.

That sucks, man. But you can always just do what I do and watch it on Youtube. Not as convenient by any means, but it's easy to find there and usually in high quality.

I actually caught the last couple of episodes of Impact and it seems to be getting a lot better, so it's not the best time to lose the channel. Back in December, you probably wouldn't have been too upset. :lol

It's alright, Impact's "lost" a lot of people over the years. :P

Since their ratings have been the same (for the most part) for the last 4 years or better, I would say if anything, they just have not gained
