    Tough call. So many good ones.

    TLC (wish we could include all the Discovery Channels as one :( )
    Lifetime (so what, I'm a girly girl)
    Comedy Central
    CNN or Fox News
    TBS

    Close seconds were HGTV, the rest of the Discovery Channels, TBS, History Channel and a few others. Also Bravo and AMC (I think) both have great old movies on all the time!

    Oe of history, TLC or Discovery - very hard decision

    I used to like CNN Headline News, but the new format bites. CNN is rapidly declining too.
