I just discovered Me TV tonite and have enjoyed Lost In Space, Star Trek (original, of course) so far, and now watching Svengoulie's running of The Mummy's Ghost ('44 w/Chaney Jr.). I'm in vintage heaven! How long has Oceanic had this available?

Re: Me TV
Me TV is actually a secondary channel of KITV 4. Over the air the it is on Channel 4.2 while the main network channel is at 4.1. The cable TV channel number of course is different.

Re: Me TV
If you like Me TV you'll probably also like THIS TV... In Honolulu it airs on KGMB Channel 5.2 OTA (the CBS station being on 5.1 OTA). FYI - KFVE is at 9.1 OTA. Cable channel for THIS TV as I last recalled is up higher in the 300 or 400 range on the digital service.

Re: Me TV
Unfortunately, THIS TV seems to have a broadcasting problem - the audio is not very good. Specifically, the audio sounds clipped with a frequency of about 1 hertz. The gist is there, but the quality is not. Also, their OTA program guide has a considerable time offset that makes it hard to use.May I always be found beneath your contempt.

Re: Me TV
Gotta say ME's weekly daytime shows are the worst dreck the '60s and '70s produced, and what made me hate popular viewing back then. I hit paydirt the other evening and will temper my excitement and viewing with guarded selectivity. We need more high quality programs like Laugh In, Johnny Carson, and The Monkees.

Much as I loved the show when it aired and can recognize the innovative techniques the actors/producers/directors brought to television, hindsight gives a different perspective - certainly NOT representative of "the best" TV had to offer in those days.
But still, a damn lot of fun to watch. (And the reason I brought "Antenna TV" into the discussion was because they ran a marathon of Monkees episodes a few days after Jones died.)

Originally posted by Amati View PostWow we agree AGAIN?? I find the Old Man entertaining ... and the stuff people bring in to sell, well, you don't see that sort of selection in Hawaii pawn stores.
That Vegas store has enjoyed a massive windfall of $ and attention with the interest per the show. They have a ton of interesting items coming in that we don't ever see. They have to close the store on filming days, it's way crowded. I love calling bullshit on items when I have better knowledge than the experts show. Red lights and whistles go off!
The 'old man' can be fun, but ChumLee is the star. He's more real than the others, and I can't stand the grandson, Corey. Rick, is probably a prick as well, but pulls off the show well. And he likes Hendrix, so he can't be all bad. I wish they'd lose the obvious fakery of personalities and stick to the meat, the Detroit show suffers from the internal BS as well. But the things they've spotlighted have often been incredible, stuff you'd otherwise never see or known existed. Whoever pushed the concept nailed it!
Monday evenings were ritual veiwing in the '60s, Laugh-In and The Monkees, same channel, back to back. I should have hated The Monkees silliness, and being friends with the Ed Roth family we always had that local (So. Cal) rivalry per the Barris brothers about the Monkeemobile, etc. But they were huge on Hendrix, so they had cred way beyond the stupid show once I heard that, and I love some of the songs still today.Last edited by Ron Whitfield; March 15, 2012, 07:35 AM.
