Paramount Channel Leaving
Now Paramount channel is being removed… what are we getting as a replacement? The last few channels that have been removed have not resulted in a suitable replacement, or a reduction of my monthly bi...
Paramount Network Canada is being shut down by the content provider - it is not something that TELUS has chosen to do; it will no longer be available to Canadians from any telco. I can only speculate as to why - but Rocky3's sentiment is probably representative - since the launch of Paramount+, a lot of programming has been moved over there.
At the risk of getting overly complicated - TELUS has hundreds of channels in dozens of theme packs...so anytime a provider ceases operations or turns down a channel, TELUS's choices would be to remove the channel from the theme pack, take a channel from a different theme pack (which just moves the problem around) or completely reshuffle all theme packs, which is pretty disruptive to everyone.
If you no longer see value in the Prime Time theme pack, you are free to swap theme packs every 30 days, or downgrade your combo to one without Prime Time. You can also subscribe to the other channels within Prime Time a la carte if there are only 1 or 2 that you care about.
Slim pickins of shows to watch until the new stuff comes along. So I scanned the All channels and found a show I wanted to watch. I am not subscribed, wasted an hour or so trying to find channel 315 to subscribe to it. Is it available or not. Most likely NOT and another lost channel not yet deleted from the guide.
315 on my guide is CTV Life channel.
Still hoping for a replacement for Paramount, or a bill credit for the time it’s been unavailable.
