    I noticed yesterday that there is a new channel on the epg (Ch 229): youTV
    has that always been there?
    i can understand why i may have overlooked it before, the cr@p that was on it yesterday

    What do UTV think of youTV?

    I never saw the original YouTV (Thank God!) but I can tell you that if it was any worse than this garbage, then it truly deserved to be called "the worst TV channel ever" (as I heard it described more than once)

    The channel only launched yesterday. I was also wondering what UTV think of the name. Would there be legal procedings? Or would youTV not have been trademarked/copyrighted by UTV?

    I don't think that UTV could sue, even if they cared, because youTV closed down last year (I think!) and this crap channel (and having seen it, I can now confirm my initial opinion!) only came on this week. So there's no way that I can see UTV suing!

    i had a look today and i really picked my moment to switch on. there was a guy with what must have been a grey carpet being used as a wig :p:p . that Shop America person is on all the time too. how did it get into the entertainment section of the EPG ????. i noticed too that there is a gap of 6 spaces between You TV and Game Network. what channel will be gracing 226 on our EPG?

    I doubt Irish viewers will get anything on 226... this channel is used for ITV2 in the UK.

    Interesting to see that youTV carries S4C Teletext (SBECTEL) on page 300.

    Using S4C~2's space I guess!

    As mentioned on Digitalspy,
    Kevin Trudeau, the happy man from Shop America and most of these lovely youTV shows is a convicted fraudster in the states:

    Wonder how long more he will be able to get away with his Mega Memory marathons on this side of the ocean!

    i hope he breaks a rule and is shut down because more and more channels are showing his promos for mega-memory and his great plan to make everyone have a better golf swing
