My professor assigned us this thing where we have to come up with an idea for a new channel. here are the details…
—————
“Most cable networks do not attempt to reach a mass audience as the traditional broadcast networks do. The cable networks are content to attract only segments of the population who seek specialized or niche programming. Rock music fans have their networks; country music fans have theirs; travelers have theirs; and movie buffs have TNT, AMC, Encore and many others. On many receivers, you have channels for business, cartoons, comedy, cowboy movies, documentaries, nature shows, sci-fi, etc., etc.
Your assignment is to develop a new cable network that will launch nationwide starting in July 2013. IMPORTANT: Your network should NOT offer programming seen on existing networks. Originate your own lineup of shows. Minimum: 3 daytime shows. 3 primetime shows. You don’t have to talk about plotlines and provide character development in describing these shows. Concern yourself with themes or types of programming. Give us titles. You may NOT steal programming, including reruns, from any existing network.
Prepare a 5- to 10-slide PowerPoint presentation of the proposed network. Who is the target audience for this program? A key element of this conceptualization is to identify the network’s TARGET AUDIENCE and potential advertisers for its programming. Get to the point. Highlight only the most interesting aspects of the new network. Entertain us.”

So, I had some ideas…. BUT THERE ALREADY ON AIR! everything i think of is taken. For instance a LGBT channel, a horror channel, a art shopping channel… ect. Thing is that i have never had cable or dish tv, so i have basically no clue of what is already on.
So, any ideas?

The VH1 Save the Music Foundation is an organization in the United States that is affiliated with the VH1 Cable Network and it restores music programs in elementary public schools in the United States. It raises awareness and donates money to schools to buy intruments for music programs. How do you think this has affected the world ? (not just the United States)

My Apt. complex says to receive cable channels I have to sign up for DISH Network, but DISH Network is blocking my local NBC affiliate, can they legally do this?

I guess that’s what they call it. I’m trying to search it up on google, but I can’t find when it started, because I was watching some championship on one of the NBC affiliate channels on cable tv the other day, and it’s pretty cool, like motocross and speed skating/ skating on a bobsled type track, with a lot of turns and jumps, but I’ve never actually heard about it nor have seen the sport. I’ve been watching the winter x games off and on, ever since that started, but I guess it’s never on when I watch it. I watch the olympics, but it’s never on when I watch it. I mean I know it’s kind of new because it was not on when the x games first started. I don’t think many people know about this sport? It’s pretty awesome. Just want to know about it’s past and how it formed and when it started, but I can’t find a website. It’s sponsored by Red Bull.

I am using a mini hdmi to hdmi cable from the new Atrix 2 4g smart phone into a Vizio jv50p high def plasma tv. It looks fairly good but very noticeable in pixeling. I would like to make the resolution like it is seen on the phone. The enlarged resolution from the phone on to the t.v is obvious, and drops the quality of the picture. As far as can be seen, there is no ability on the tv to adjust settings for the picture, no options for this seem to exist. I am guessing that it is a preset resolution internal to the tv (unless there is a secret way to do it).
My only idea of a solution would be some type of app from the droid market? or a way of cabling that I am unfamiliar with. So any sharpies out there got a possible solution to this?
Thanks

I’ve tried gettin Espn3 on my xbox360. I know that time warner cable is a service provider, but the espn on xbox live keeps saying it can’t determine if my provider is affiliated with espn3 or not. what is the problem?
