Bass Dude Posted December 4, 2011 Posted December 4, 2011 I see the Versus channel is going to become a 24 hour NBC sports channel. Anyone hear what's going to happen to their outdoor programs?? Quote
Super User BASSclary Posted December 4, 2011 Super User Posted December 4, 2011 I wouldn't be suprised if it vanished. Quote
Super User tomustang Posted December 4, 2011 Super User Posted December 4, 2011 Considering there's Deer or related hunting shows on 23 hours a day, I wouldn't mind. Since Golf and Hunting have their own channels, I'd like to see a fishing dedicated channel. Quote

Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted December 4, 2011 Super User Posted December 4, 2011 Maybe it will be an all Chelsea FC network. I can hope..... Quote
Super User SoFlaBassAddict Posted December 5, 2011 Super User Posted December 5, 2011 Maybe it will be an all Chelsea FC network. I can hope..... Pffft. Red Devils or nothin! Quote
Super User tomustang Posted December 5, 2011 Super User Posted December 5, 2011 There is one. World Fishing Network. But not on national cable, it's only select areas, unlike golf channel which is backed by NBC Quote

NateFollmer Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 I haven't heard anything about them going away... The Next Bite is just about to start season 8, so they shouldn't be going anywhere for at least a year Quote
Super User J Francho Posted December 5, 2011 Super User Posted December 5, 2011 In fact, Lunkerville TV will be on the new network, and there is plans for a second show with Mike D. 1 Quote

The Next Bite is just about to start season 8, so they shouldn't be going anywhere for at least a year The Next Bite is also on WFN.....Not saying that Versus will change, but several show's Versus carries, WFN also carries. FLW, Hook N' Look, Lindners Angling Edge, Next Bite, and others. 1 Quote
BassResource.com Administrator Glenn Posted December 5, 2011 BassResource.com Administrator Posted December 5, 2011 My guess is that NBC will try to go head-to-head against ESPN. Which means no hunting or fishing shows. I'm sure they'll need to honor current VS contracts, so it wouldn't be immediate. So expect to see them go away for the 2013 season. Quote

That's a shame, because I really think that overall VS does a good job. Outdoor show's, obscure but entertaining college football, INDYCAR, some Nascar, very little poker. I have still not figured out why Poker is EVER on ESPN Quote
Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted December 6, 2011 Super User Posted December 6, 2011 Rather poker than soccer! Blasphemy! How dare you! Chelsea til I die! Quote
