[Xero]

1. Discovery Channel
2. Comedy Central
3. USA Network
4. Cartoon Network
5. History Channel

Honestly, I hardly watch anything else besides those channels, aside from the local affiliates (I've included all of them, CW, MyNetwork, etc in this category). It's just a load of shit and it's why my "Netflix + Local OTA + Web On-Demand" philosophy works out so well. With that, channels like HBO are just a repetitive bunch of shit.

Anyway, considering I have so many left, here are the channels I'd like to have there "sometimes":

6. TBS
7. WGN
8. Animal Planet
9. Food Network
10. A&E

[Kapoutman]

1. RDS
2. The Score
3. Teletoon French
4. G4
5. Musique Plus
6. Fight Network

These are the only 6 "specialized" channels I have. I have a "10 channels for 10 dollars" deal, and the extra four are Fox, CBS, ABC and NBC since they are not basic channels in Quebec.
