Just curious...I notice that TBS is still duplicated in the guide and am curious if it is still a part of the Movies bundle.

Sadly, TBS is part of the Prime Time bundle. This is strange as the other superstations are part of the Movies. Anyone know why TBS is on it's own?

This is frustrating for me as I swapped the Prime Time bundle for one of the new bundles. I would like TBS though....seems you can't get it unless you take the Prime Time bundle!

I believe the CRTC allowed cable and satellite providers to package one of the superstations with the last round of "analog channels" and/or there was a subsequent change that allowed the providers to bundle a US superstation with other Canadian services.

SC bundles TBS with Primetime and WGN with the movies.
BEV bundles WGN with the sports package and TBS with the movies.

I believe with SC you can get TBS in a superstation bundle as well.

I can't see it here www.starchoice.com/upgrade (http://www.starchoice.com/upgrade)

It looks like we won't be watching TBS anytime soon. I'm not gonna give up the Cool Stuff or FYI bundles for the Primetime bundle.

Ever notice in the guide.
650 WTBS
529 TBS

Also TBS can be a selection in the Actif bundle.

dave...that is funny you bring that up because when I called sc and asked why it was still duplicated in the guide they said its not...One is TBS and the other is WTBS...at that point I just said OK thanks and hung up.

Try calling them instead.
The web site is useless IMO for programming.
