MeTV Toons haven't went on live on Frndly yet, so it could take minutes to hours to be live and added to guide.

Also, I saw on home menu but they brought "Page Not Found" error with 404.

The MeTV toons website says they anticipate launches today for Frndly and Philo. Also there will be two channels available for Phoenix, KMOH 6.5 (6 is Kingman MeTV relay) and KEJR 40.2.

There is also a page up for rescanning tips. This channel will get people using antenna who may not have heard one in years or ever. So having a tutorial like this is smart.

While there are breaks, it looks like there are no commercials, but let's not assume anything just yet….

Jerry Beck himself confirmed there will be advertisements on the channel so it's just temporary

It looks like I won't be able to watch this channel right away after all. I went through literally our entire channel lineup but couldn't find it. Not that I was really expecting to, it wasn't mentioned in our latest billing statement (which just went out a couple days ago), but I was hoping maybe it would be there anyway. Xfinity picking it up would be the only way I'd be able to watch it (well, that or subscribe to Frndly or Philo, but I'm not sure I want to just to get one channel), so I guess I'm out of luck for now.

I don't mean any disrespect (to you, or him), but when and where exactly did he say this? I'm just asking.

EDIT: Never mind. They played a LifeLock commercial just now.

EDIT 2: I'm not sure about their weekday showing of The Smurfs. It appears as a one hour series (which, ironically was how it was first shown when it originally premiered back in 1981) with three stories, all listed as having two parts, and then a random classic short that has nothing to do with The Smurfs.

I THINK they're also showing the full series, but the only other time they're showing it is Sunday at 5:00 PM Eastern, and for The Smurfs, one showing a week simply isn't going to cut it...

When I tried scanning this morning hoping to get one of the Phoenix MeTV affiliates, I didn’t have any luck. Eventually after five scans, channel 6 and its sub channels were Tucson PBS and channel 40 was Tucson Telemundo. It seems I get a better signal from Tucson than Phoenix on certain numbers. Just now I tried another scan hoping to pick up another Arizona affiliate of MeTV Toons, but 23 doesn’t come in, nor do 4 or 28. Antenna can a tricky way to get channels if you aren’t in the perfect location.

No better proof than in your face proof. I am not mocking, just that it is the best possible evidence.

As I told Moe, I had realized what (I think) is going on. After they show those two shows, they're going to "rotate" to other related shows. I also imagine that they might do this with other shows as well.

It's so shocking. Normally messing with the schedule like this would be cause for alarm but here its obvious Me TV Toons CARES and wants their lineup to be fresh, you never watch the same how once when you tune in.

The Smurfs is nice in HD remaster.

Frndly and Philo are only two if you want HD feed.

EDIT: Never mind. They played a LifeLock commercial just now.
I saw adult ads like university education, brand name prescription (Voquezna - heartburn med), Driveway, CarShield and others.

Phooey, same here. I also checked my channel’s lineup but I couldn’t find any station that had it (granted my channel service is more of a homebrew than a national one but still).
