Is LAFF replacing GRIT?

[Rsteph5177]

Channel 485  guide shows LAFF and its programming but actual programming is GRIT. Is grit being moved?

I'm in the Boston market. Channel 485 is unassigned. From what I've seen posted elsewhere, Grit TV will be replacing Court TV on April 1st.

Dexman- It's confusing; the westerns on 485 seem to've disappeared (I'm in NYC).  The westerns were generally of low quality, but sometimes they have (had?) gems on GRIT.

For example, I went to SEARCH and typed in SHANE, (repeatedly, for about 6 months...) and finally it's on GRIT AND on Court TV (CH 490) (really?) on Apr. 7, about 8 AM, so I set my DVR to record off GRIT... 

But then I went into the guide and it's NOT playing on Apr. 7 on GRIT... but the movie is still on Court-tv... so I changed the recording channel to 490.

Now you're writing that GRIT moves to 490... so will SHANE be recorded or not?  

Thanks Dex  -L.

I can't say for sure (I'm also an end user).

My thought is that Shane should follow GRIT to the new channel but check the programs running on both old & new channels to see which one would likely be the one to air it and program the DVR accordingly.

Eventually the guide will catch up. 🙂
