Uncle Earl's Classic TV Channel: Gone For Good?
Uncle Earl's Classic TV Channel ^ | Dec 29, 2023 | Me

Posted on 12/29/2023 6:15:02 PM PST by Keltik

The URL now leads to a domain-for-sale site.

Uncle Earl's was (is?) the best site for streaming classic TV shows online. It was free and had no ads.

Virtually every notable TV series from the 50s through the 70s & beyond was there, from classic westerns to private eye shows. For a while now westerns on Uncle Earl's have been all I watch.

Anyone have any info on what is going on with UE?

Also, any suggestions for sites to replace it?

Get the FREE Pluto tv app for your Roku device or other streaming device. Your newer tv’s may have it built in.
They have 350+ tv shows and countless movies. All FREE.

You can probably find it already as an app on your cell phone. Or download it from the Playstore or App store.

Use your computer: https://pluto.tv

I suggest that every conservative, prepper, and pioneer western fan watch this movie about 2 teenagers homesteading.

Others to go along with Pluto are the free sides of the apps Classic FilmTime, Baby Boomer TV, Redbox, Xumo, Plex, STIRR, FreeVee, Roku Channel - if your TV doesn’t have Roku built in you can buy the box fairly cheaply.

And of course get a decent over the air antenna to along with it and you will likely get the channels MeTV, AntennaTV, GritTV, GetTV, MOVIES!, and many others which also air many of those classic programs and westerns.

The series Cheyenne got very indian preachy at times, but it was a good series.

A series that surprised me and turned out to be good was “Sugarfoot”.

The last few months I watched a lot of Cheyennes. As I said before, the presentation was generally even-handed: not saints, but not complete devils either.

>A series that surprised me and turned out to be good was “Sugarfoot”.<

Never could get into it.

I just dont think it works — certainly not on the level of Maverick.

To me Sugarfoot shouldn’t have worked but the actor made it credible, to me it was a case of the right actor fitting a part that wasn’t made for just anyone.

Maverick was a big-time series, a star-maker, Sugarfoot was the second tier.

Have you noticed in the old series moments of writing that are a little jarring in their unfiltered plain man talk and a lot of realistic reactions and interchanges and vocabulary, and even real-life situations and mentions of details like little details related to law and arrests?

To me, there are moments where you can tell that real men are doing the writing, men who had lived some and hadn’t had all their edges totally smoothed off.

When I searched for “Uncle Earl’s Classic TV Channel”, I discovered that it is now a YouTube Channel.

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCicpfHtlBuGXF4_2FIoQp8w

I can’t vouch that it is all there or that the same person runs it but the channel exists!

Alas, I live in a small valley and cannot even get programs with antenna I used to get just up the hill. So Satellite is the only other option.

If it was free and had no ads, how was it sustained?
