Default What happened to Oprah?

When I click on her channel, the OWN channel, it now says History channel.

it seems that would be a question for your cable provider. they contract for the different networks

I never saw anything on her network worth watching. Most of it was reruns. Somewhere I read that she has since said she didn't really think it through when starting it. Too busy trying to end the Oprah show to concentrate on the new one.

I know i got a notice from Comcast that more channels were moving. call your provider and see if that was why and where she is now. i don't get her channel.

Agreed, your provider has switched its channel lineup.

It must be your cable provider switching things around. We still get her channel, though I wish we didn't. She took the place of Discovery Health that my daughter and I watched all the time.

My first thought was who cares? LOL. I'm not an Oprah fan at all but I know how frustrating it is to have a favorite show gone with no explanation. I did read that her new network was failing and many stations were dropping the channel.

I am not an Oprah fan, I too was upset because she replaced one of my favorite channels. The Discovery Health Channel. Unfortunatley I found Own on a different number last night. To tell the truth, I was just hoping she was gone. Oh well!!

I also liked Discovery Health although in recent years I took to calling it the "WTF" channel, as it was full of shows like the 1000 pound man, born without a face, I swallowed my own foot, weird stuff like that.

I would think she should put craft shows on to help her dying station. - J
