NBCUniversal has made the unfortunate decision to cease broadcasting Esquire (ch. 606) and the Universal HD (ch. 909) networks effective July 1 and July 15th respectively.

Programming from these networks, such as Esquire’s Friday Night Tykes and Universal HD’s USA network reruns will move to other NBCUniversal channels, including Fusion, Bravo, Oxygen, Syfy, and Chiller.

NBCUniversal has promised a new Olympics focused network to launch later this summer. We’ll provide more info about this channel as soon as it becomes available.
