Enough is enough already with waiting… I’ve been asking the folks at Comcast when we’re going to be able to receive Spike HD in the Monmouth/Ocean county area and they keep telling me that it’s coming soon. I’ve been asking for over a year – close to a year and a half, actually. Does anyone out there know when we’re supposed to receive the Spike HD channel in this market?
I wish I knew more about the process of delivering a channel to a specific area. I feel like it probably isn’t much more than coming to an agreement with the channel’s ownership (in this case, Viacom) and then flipping a few switches. Makes you wonder what is taking so long to get this otherwise simple process completed.
One of the reasons that I’m a little bit angered over this delay is because Comcast recently added Spike HD to certain markets in New Jersey. Why couldn’t our market be included in that update?! Anyway, if anyone knows when we’re going to receive the Spike HD channel in the Monmouth/Ocean market, please let me know. Thanks!

Comcast is the only broadband provider for where I live. I have the 12mbit package which was upgraded for free from the 6mbit package I was paying for. Install is usually quick and painless if you have cable hookups at the place already. The only black eye with Comcast is that they do DNS redirection which sends you to an ad page when you mistype URLs. Fortunately they also make it easy to opt out of this “service” if it bothers you. – Kate
