Spike TV and Outdoor Shows

[Daveinthebush]

It seems that Spike TV will no long be showing outdoor huting and fishing shows.  I just got off their site and there are now none listed on the programing guide.

It is time to let them know how you feel about there decision.

Since I purchase my programing from Direct TV I wrote them too.

Dear Sirs:

One of the reasons that I selected Direct TV was for the out-of-doors programing.  I am upset that Spike TV has selected to eliminate hunting/fishing/shooting sports from their programing.

I do not know why they elected to do so but I feel it was a bad decision.  Outdoorsmen and women spend millions of dollars on sporting goods products each year.  It looks like Spike TV has elected to hurt their advertisers by their decision.

Sincerely, Dave Armstong

When they first started the "First Network for Men" line, I remember this was followed by an ad for some feminine hygene product.

Daveinthebush,
Looks like a 'canned' automatic response to me. I wonder if anyone really read your comment....

Forget Spike TV get the Outdoor Channel from Direct TV.

I called them and they me told I had to take it as part of the sports packet.  I told them no I didn't want the sports package, I wanted the Outdoor Channel, ala carte.  Oh, okay.  I think it costs me $2.99 a month

Same here, been watching George, Tom and Perry for years.  George got me into prospecting with the shows.

Got the gold fever now for about 7 years. :-)
