I want Chiller! ~ I want Chiller! ~ I want Chiller!

That horror/thriller channel, Chiller, I don't have it on my Xfinity. I'm in Oregon, I get channel 787, Universal HD, and it has commercials. One of their commercials is "Chiller, scary good". I had to google it to find out more. I really want Comcast to add Chiller in HD to my Xfinity lineup. I also want the HD channel Monsters, if it still exists.

Comcast is not going to, Comcast has its own channel called Syfy

syfy is owned by nbc universal and so is chiller.  comcast now owns nbc universal, so it owns chiller.  comcast's own channel was and is a crappy on-demand channel called fearnet.  i want chiller too and the companion channel cloo, which used to be called sleuth.  if they own them i dont understand why they dont put them on.

Because they are 'exclusive' channels with other providers, like dishnetwork, directv.  Thats according to my neighbor who is an Comcast employee

My local telephone company offers them. And my local is not AT&T or Verizon. It is a company that started in this town over 100 years ago. Not a national firm.

willscott88 has it right "syfy is owned by nbc universal and so is chiller.  comcast now owns nbc universal, so it owns chiller."

my own assumption is that you may see chiller and other nbcu channels (like cloo) coming to your comcast area soon.

So Comcast has divided up the NBC/Comcast-owned stations, so that Comcast doesn't have them all?  I also want Chiller.  It has a lot more sci-fi on it that SyFy does.

Here is a link that shows what cable channels that Comcast-NBC Universal operate:

The list includes both chiller and syfy.

I really hope if my area ever gets Chiller that sometime down the road they'll reair the short lived series "The Others." I only saw the pilot episode when it aired on NBC and really liked it.

I switched from satellite to comcast in Aug. '11. I agree that if they own both syfy & chiller then, they should also offer both channels in their line-up.
