Me TV to launch tomorrow on 4

More choice is always a good thing, but this station looks exactly like Deacdes which has been soft-launching on one of the 62 sub-bands for few months now.

I'd like to see another movie channel. The Movies! sub-channel on 2 is fantastic. ThisTV isn't bad, but they play a lot of filler.

With the excellent lineup of over the air broadcasting, combined with Netflix and Amazon Prime, I'm really not missing cable at all.

Look at this first, then you may prove yourself wrong.

Me-TV [[stylized as MeTV, and serving as a backronym for its on-air slogan "Memorable Entertainment Television") is an American broadcast television network that is owned by Weigel Broadcasting and distributed by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.[2] Marketed as "The Definitive Destination for Classic TV," the network mainly airs sitcomsand drama series from the 1950s through the 1990s, which are sourced primarily from the libraries of CBS Television Distribution and 20th Television. Through its ownership by Weigel, Me-TV is sister to three other networks that source their programming content from the network's distributors: rerun-focused networks Heroes & Icons and Decades [[the latter being an upcoming joint venture with CBS Television Stations), and the film-focused Movies! [[a joint venture with Fox Television Stations). Me-TV is carried on a digital subchannel of an affiliated television station in most markets; however, some of Me-TV's stations carry the network as a primary affiliation on their main channel, and a small number of stations air select programs from the network alongside their regular general entertainment schedules. The network is also available nationwide on free-to-air C-band satellite via SES-1 in the DVB-S format,[3] and since December 13, 2012, on AT&T U-verse channel 136 in some markets. Me-TV's operations are based out of Weigel Broadcasting's corporate headquarters on North Halsted Street in Chicago, Illinois.

Me TV is on. Only the logo is showing. Logo says Me TV Detroit.
We cut off cable and satellite years ago and don't miss them at all or paying the high price bill.

Same here, didn't even have to perform a rescan.

4.3 if you're interested in seeing the Me TV logo and the blue words DETROIT over a black screen with looping seconds-long white noise.

If you're on Uverse or WOW and have the national Me TV feed, M*A*S*H is almost over, The Andy Griffith Show will be up next.

I don't do cable either. Only stream thru ROKU in tandem with a RCA converter box. I'll have to rescan by converter box to see if I can get this channel. What is it's channel number?

It's on 4.3, still showing the same test pattern right now though.

^^^ Hmm, my converter box is not showing that channel. At least not now...

I get 4.2 'THIS Detroit' Channel, but not 4.3?

Right - Quincy, Perry Mason and Hawaii Five-O were already played, in their entirety, on Cozi TV. Decades played every episode of The Saint, Naked City, Man from UNCLE and Mission Impossible. I think Laff is playing The Lucy Show.

Again, it's nice there's another channel, I just wish there was less overlap with what has already been on. It would be cool if they had a night gallery / twilight zone/ outer limits block, or something like that. Columbo is awesome, but every episode is available on Netflix.
