I hate Directv for taking my channel away

I got hooked on this show, watched the whole first season on dvd from blockbuster.com and then found out no more were released. So then I realized it was on Lifetime Real Women network and only missed the first 3 episodes of season 2. Then today I went to turn it on, and the channel is no longer available. I called Directv and they said it was a mutual decision between them and Lifetime to no longer offer this channel. HOW LAME IS THAT?

So I was also recording from the end of season 3, so I can watch like 9 or 10 more episodes after missing a few more from today. Then I am just left with nothing.

It is lame!!! I was hoping for at least a second chance to record SM since... THEY HAVENT REALEASED ANY OF THE OTHER SEAONS ON DVD!!!! So what is going to hapen, are they going to offer LRW to other cable/satillite companys or did they get rid of LRW all together?

At least there is http://www.rosafans.com/to talk about Strong Medicine.

I looked at the cable and sat. companies from around here and the channel doesn't exist in their setups. I don't know if they had it before today. Make sure you vote on that other post I put up.

I didn't realize it was going to put the others at the top of the list too, when I responded to other posts, hoping to make them look at voting too.

DirecTV and a whole lot of channels are reaching these "mutual decisions" to discontinue their relationship. CourtTV is another one.

Thanks for the rosafans link. I'll have to check that out.

No problem! http://www.rosafans.com/ has alot of screen shots of Strong Medicine.

[–] sisterdebmac 17 years ago

Screencaps? Cool. I'll have to take a look at those. We've got some too, but they're mostly of Chris. Might be a few of Rosa in there since most of his scenes were with her.
