Circle Country music, plays the old Hee Haw shows and I will up date on what else they play, it is part of the Fox over the air Network.

I tuned in to our local weather channel 3.3, over the air in Phoenix Az and there was Roy Clark and Jerry Reed doing some pickin and grinnin, so I had to find out what happened in the hours since I last checked the weather. Turns out Fox moved weather to 3.4 an added Circle TV to 3.3, I am stoked......I loved those old country shows. I hope they do the old Opry shows with the classic performers of the past as well as the new ones. Fingers crossed.


My wife watches "over the air" TV almost exclusively.  They were running some ads in mid-January to re-scan your TV's.  Maybe it was for new content.

I haven't seen the Circle Country stuff yet. (Probably because my wife hasn't found it)  I would guess maybe 2 or 3 nights a week, we'll watch the old Ed Sullivan Show during dinner.  They have interesting acts on there.  A lot of times it's people you have just forgotten about over time.  Last night had a young Tony Bennett.  Tiny Tim.  Liza Minnelli looked like she was in her 20's.  Flip Wilson.

Most evening she watches old Carson shows. ;D

Circle music is part of the Fox over the air network not the cable version. I also watch Decades which airs the old Ed Sullivan shows, Laugh In, old Dick Cavett shows  And old sitcoms.

I realize that.  I fired all of the cable TV carriers.  We have free over the air and I rotate some of the major streaming channels.  I'm watching CBS All Access for the new Star Trek stuff currently.
How is the new Star Trek. I am not yet signed up for CBS All Access. Don't know if I will sign up for that.

I like it.  There is Star Trek Discovery which has done 2 seasons.  Getting ready to air its 3rd season.  Picard, which is the new show has aired 3 shows.  I think both are fantastic Sci-Fi shows.  The special effects are great.  A lot of the lineage from the earlier show versions are still involved in the production of the new shows, so the authenticity is intact.

I rotate out my Streaming Channels.  I'll get caught up on my Netflix shows, then dump it, and catch up on another channel.  I got a free year of Amazon Prime TV with my internet renewal so that was cool.  I go through spurts where I don't watch any TV.

I got tired of taking a monthly screwing from the Major Cable guys, so now I manage my own content.  I probably pay less than a third of what I used to pay for a TV, Internet, Phone package.
