PlutoTV should have a channel that runs all dubbed Pokemon anime episodes in original Japanese broadcast order.

I like how they pick up random shows that never had a chance to air in the like this show "Olliver's Adentures"

Also since CBS News Miami launched yesterday (first time I've seen them launch a local one a Monday) I expect it to be Pluto TV sometime this week. I wonder if they will do like they did Baltimore and screw up their alphabet thing again or put in the proper spot between CBS News Los Angeles (1026) and CBS News Minnesota (1028)

They are adding 7 new channels through March, instead of one day dump of channels it's staggered.

March 1 Heartland (the Canadian long running drama) , Vevo Retro Rock

March 2: Black Classics , Classic TV Families

March 7: G4 Select

March 10 : More TV Sitcoms

sometime in March : Waypoint TV ( an outdoors channel)



Updated : March 2nd : They've removed the CNET and Game Spot Channels. (funfact: CNET was owned by CBS until 2020, Channel was on Pluto before Viacom bought Pluto or CBS)

Now on the occasion of the news of the relaunch of Pluto TV in Canada (as a joint venture with Corus), one of my doubts is like this, which will be the next country to be part of the international expansion of Pluto TV? Australia/New Zealand (reason: Network Ten), Netherlands, Belgium, Portugal, Central Europe (Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic and Romania), Japan or South Africa?

The Let’s Make a Deal channel is the worst of all the channels they’ve given everyone. It’s just reruns of the current show. It’s as though Monty Hall doesn’t even exist (without Monty, “Television’s big dealer”, the show wouldn’t even exist at all). There’s a “Price is Right” channel with reruns of Bob Barker era episodes, so why can’t anyone have reruns of the era of episodes with the host/co-producer that started it all?

As they say on the internet, “[They] had one job…”.

I believe the rights are split Fremantle produces the current series so they made a deal with Pluto to run the current series, they also own the rights to all of Price is Right. Last year Let's Make a Deal's IP was bought by Lemois and Glass, I think they own the original series and the rights to the format that Fremantle has to lease from them for the current series. For Monty Hall series they might have to ....make a deal... with Lemois and Glass.

Do the Wheel and Jeopardy eps have older (80s-2000s) episodes or is it just the more current stuff? Wouldnt mind seeing the 80s Wheel with the shopping rounds (the Chuck Woolery eps are sadly lost media).

I have to lay low for awhile. I need to take a break from this for right now, but I'll be back soon.
Bought Cat City (1986) on Prime today. Never seen it before, looking forward to watching it!
Super Metroid on the SNES turns 30 today in North America.
The sub-only anime releases in North America are the invention of the 2010s.
Not all of Family Guy has aged well (and he knows this - hell, he's friends with the PTC president now) but I genuinely think Seth MacFarlane is a really good guy.
