Good news for Bucks Fans!

I was just looking at the schedule for Feb.... is this right? They're airing "You Gotta See This" in HD at 10pm on Feb 7th?!?!?

Isn't that the show with all the video footage of people maiming themselves in sports-related accidents?  Hard to believe that'll be in HD.. but, I'll tune in anyway.

It's 7:15 and I'm still black on 540?   According to Fox Sports Net, this should be an HD game!

EDIT: Okay... I'm talking to TWC right now and am being told that the game is BLOCKED OUT in HD???!?!?  But I can watch it on the standard fox sports channel in SD?!?!?

WTF!?!?

I went to a party tonite so I never got to see the game. Did it ever come in HD??

I tuned in during the 3rd quarter and it was on FoxSports HD.  One of the INHD channels also showed it in the listing, but I only saw black there.

I ended up watching it on my SD set in my livingroom... then I fell asleep on the couch. :blush:

It sounds like it did eventually come on in HD per Mrtanner, so someone somewhere must've realized it was a screw up.  I hope they get their act together for the next game.

Here is the scoop.

The game did not start until 7:30pm. The schedule was wrong about the start time. You only got black screen until start time.

It played just fine on TWC 540 at 7:30pm. It was blocked out on the HD network INHD that was carrying it nationally, because 540 was carrying it locally.

Not on my set it didn't! I was on the horn with TWC at 8:00 with no picture on either 540 or INHD.  The CSR mentioned she had been getting a lot of calls about it and that's when she told me it was blocked.  She had me on hold looking for a number to Fox Sports while I typed my EDIT above.

WOW, that's a puzzler. I went to 540 at 7pm and nothing so I went to 31, the SD version of Fox Sports Net. They had a talk show going, but the menu listed the Bucks coming on at 7:30pm.

Then later, not exactly sure how much past 7:30pm, I turned it back on and it was on both 540 in HD and 31 in SD. It might have been as late as 8pm, I don't know for sure. I kept toggling back and forth to show somebody the difference between the HD and SD.

It was blocked on INHD, just a black screen.
