that was bs i was watching tosh.o and then all of a sudden we are experiencing technical difficulties please check back later

 

[Antamania]

Gotta give some props to Directv for telling Viacom to fuck off rather than raise your guys rates.

 

[butterfingersman]

Yeah, fuck Viacom. I'm really pissed about this.

 

[Toxik]

WAT.
No fucking way D:
I just switched to DirecTV literally 2 fucking months ago.
GODDAMMIT.

 

[Toxik]

So basically, viacom was like PAY US MORE MONAYS OR WE'LL TAKE OUR CHANNELS BACK, then DirecTV was like FUCK YOU WE ALREADY CHARGE ENOUGH, then viacom was like LOL WELL FUCK YOU THEN TAKE OUR CHANNELS DOWN OR WE'LL SUE YOUR ASS
No?

 

[ModSe7en]

As long as they keep disputing this, Viacom is gonna keep losing money not having a contract. They'll give in eventually.
Btw, Xfinity here. Fuck the customer support.

That's how it went down.

AMC's doing this shit with Dish and AT&T, and even though we're Astound subs it still pisses me off.

Don't worry guys, I'll hold a camcorder up to our little 18" TV and upload it for DirecTV subs.

 

[takethepants]

I don't have a cable package at all. Guess where I can get full episodes of any show on TV? THE INTERNET

 

[mohawkg2]

I have Xfinity.
Motherfucking Xfinity.
Fuck Xfinity it sucks mutter mutter

 

[CommanderDude7]

At least there are 8 free encore channels until the 31st. Still Viacom sucks.

 

[Smokey]

Theoatmeal should fuck their shit up.

 

[Steak]

ill just go back to my fios

 

[Antamania]

Verizon ftw.

 

[Tomatketchup]

lol America

 

[Shiny Charizard]

Also, the way Viacom handled it with that anti-DirecTV commercial was such a dick move. (The one where they basically use their cartoons to make the kids force their parents into calling DirecTV and making them give in)

 

[DJ Über Space Whale!]

I like how directTV was obviosuly telling them to GTFO

 

[Luckyboxes]

It's funny that DirecTV takes this hardline stance with Viacom, when in reality it is ESPN and all the other live sport event channels that take up the lion share of cable tv providers money.

Get the NFL network instead
