Wasn't that channel listed as coming last fall when we got a bunch of new HD channels, but never came? I remember some discussion about it in the past.

People really need to "Cut the Crap" about AT&T "dumping or canning" Hallmark.  Hallmark Channel refused to sign a contract... AT&T wanted a new rate inline with what other providers pay for their continually re-runs of has been programming. Hallmark wanted AT&T to pay a premium.  It's business SHOE...  they wanted more for a product than AT&T was willing to pay for it.

 

Complaining about it over and over again on the blogs isn't going to help. Start a petition to see how many subscribers are willing to pay a $5 / mo.  ala carte fee .. maybe AT&T will revisit it.


DT, you are wasting your breath.  Why let facts get in the way of emotion?  Also, haters will hate.

Yes, it was printed in a UGuide channel lineup last year.  Apparently, there was a delay in completing negotiations for the carriage rights.

Well, to start off with i am not overly impressed with this new channel.  However i feel that pretty much anything that Uverse adds in regards to HD is an improvement to Uverse.  I guess that if you dont like it  you dont have to watch it.

Hey, does anyone know how to get in touch with U-verse to sign up a new TV network? I'm with a startup company and we'd like to get on U-verse.  Thanks

Here is an excerpt from an article on Multichannel News found in the link below.  It's only been a month since Havoc 247 HD was added to the U-verse lineup!

 

AT&T has launched the linear "social television" channel from action sports and indie music programmer Havoc that lets U-verse TV subscribers vote on the videos that appear on the screen in real time via Twitter.
 
Havoc 247 is the first linear service from the company, which started in 2004 as one of the first video-on-demand networks. The linear feed provides a mix of music and sports culled from Havoc's library of short-form VOD content, with specific blocks for genres such as metal and punk, hip-hop and reggae, sports and movies.
 
In addition to the interactive-playlist feature, the network provides live Twitter and Web feeds from artists, athletes and other select sites along the left-hand of the screen.

 

Viewers can chat on-screen through Facebook or Twitter (by tweeting a message with the hashtag #havoctv), though the company noted that comments are screened for profanity and appropriateness before they appear on the Havoc 247 service.
