Spoiler Alert This has nothing to do with wargaming There is a cable channel called METV that shows a lot of old TV shows. It has been renamed to H&I (Heroes and Icons) and is showing old "cop" shows: Mannix, Hunter, Hill Street Blues, The Commish, NYPD Blue, plus Combat!, Twelve O'Clock High, Renegade and 21 Jump Street. |

They have Svenghoulie too (at least used to before the name change). A horror movie show where Svenghoulie has bits between commercials – which are actually interesting. |

Agree Svenghoulie is interesting (not near as funny as he seems to think he is). I wish they could have brought back Elvira in his place. |

What… Rubber chickens aren't funny. |

Whaddya mean the rubber chickens aren't funny?!?!?! Okay, they're not funny. But the show is intended to be campy. I watch Svenghoulie every Saturday night. More often than not I'm sawing wood by the first commercial, but I love those horror, Sci Fi, and 50s drive-in movies. My wife has been hooked on the old Perry Mason episodes. |

MeTV is great! We're back to watching Mash again. I thought I saw them flash the Rat Patrol logo in their promo, but sadly no. Didn't know they were showing Combat! again. I binge watched it a few years ago. Not sure my brain is ready for it again. |

Unfortunately "MeTV" is dead and has been reincarnated as "H&I". |

tberry7403 really? I am watching Rockford files on MeTv right now. |

The channel also broadcasts " The Adventures of Superman", "Lost in Space", the original "Start TreK", Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea", "Night Gallery", "Get Smart", "The Man from U.N.C.L.E.", and "F Troop", with a top off of "Land of the Lost" and "H.R. Puf'n'Stuff". And "Mod Squad". Svengoolie is kinda funny, too… - Scott |

I get it on my digital tier from TWC. Not aware they changed their name. Hoping they'll show "Laugh-In" some time soon. |

You can't get it on DirecTV or Didh around these parts. Contact your local Xfinity salesman. |

I keep forgetting about this channel. I spend more time on the computer than on TV anyway. |

There's another called Decades on my cable system that shows old TV shows like MeTV -- maybe they're owned by the same company because they seem to have many of the same shows. Unfortunately, the commercial time outnumbers the program time, but on a good episode of something, just switch the channel for 5 minutes and come back… |
