Please remember that November is sweeps month. All channels connected with Showtime (I'm sure someone here can help with what they are) can be boycotted and it will effect the ratings of the main company. As soon as I find out, I will boycott the lot of them and let them know this as well.

Here is a short list of Viacom channels.
CBS, UPN, MTV, TV-LAND, ShowTime, VH1, Comedy Central, Sundance, Noggin and Nickelodeon.

Please remember these in the boycott. I am blocking them on my Directv. I will now contact Directv and tell them this. Right after, I will contact Nickelodeon to inform them of my boycott of all Viacom stations. (losing Noggin will make my kids suffer)

Showtime doesn't care squat about ratings, only subscriptions. Showtime would gladly take the money whether anyone watched or not.

What is needed here is a storm of subscriber cancellation threats. I can't help.

Swooosh! <---the sound of your point going right over my head!

Sorry for the misunderstanding, you are right: we can all do what we can to spread the pain to all Viacom channels.
