The Missing Believed Wiped Channel
- Dedicated to shows which are incomplete in the archives, like "Hancock's Half Hour", "Shadow Squad", "Rocky King, Detective", "Cavalcade of Stars", "My Living Doll", "The Match Game" (1960s version), "Countdown" (Australian series), etc etc.
Probably a silly idea, but still.

Some of my ideas are silly, I admit:
The Nudie Channel- Nudie films from the 1960s/1970s
The Shakespeare Channel - There have been a lot of film and TV adaptations of his works. Make an entire channel dedicated to them.
The Cold War Channel - Dedicated to films and TV shows related to the cold war (such as "Get Smart", etc)
The Prelinger Channel - Dedicated to showing the various films and things in the Prelinger archives
The Video Game Channel - Duh.
George? Oh, for a man his age who's been through as much as he has, he looks terrible
- Nudie films from the 1960s/1970s

The Classic Cooking Channel
- Dedicated to cooking shows from the 1950s to 1990s.
The Sudsy Channel - Dedicated to showing classic soap operas.
I hope these two suggests aren't too bad.
They should release more films and TV shows on DVD and Blu-ray

There are a number of 1960s soaps I'd like to see from the beginning: "Days of Our Lives", "The Story of Peter Grey", "Coronation Street", etc. These shows were lucky enough to have their episodes kept, while many other soaps of the 60s were wiped
1970s, 1980s, 1990s soaps would also be of interest to me. 1950s soaps also interest me, but only a single 1950s soap survives near-intact (it's an obscure Australian series which ran for 156 episodes, 155 survive)

Lifetime movie network LMN. Only movies all day. All the movies that play during the day would replay over night. So everyone gets a chance to watch. When the am comes again different movies would play. 80's, 90's and now a years. It would be great

I heard that Lifetime Movie Network doesn't show much in the way of films anymorebut I've already mentioned, I'm not American, I'm just someone very interested in American TV, so I wouldn't know for sure what the channel shows.

DuMont Television Network II
- A channel which recreates the 1950s TV experience, with 1950s shows of all genres, and featuring only 1950s commercials. I can dream, can't I?
The Home Movie Channel - Dedicated to homes movies from 1930s/1940s/1950s/1960s/1970s that were shot on film. I'm probably the only person who would watch this.
The 1980s Music Video Channel - Give the people what they want!
The Cloud Channel - Videos of clouds in the sky. I'm probably the only person who would watch this.
The Channel Channel - A channel which informs us of what to watch on other channels.
The Ninja Channel - Bring back ninja services, and give those cuddly assassins their own channel. I'd watch it.
The Live Channel
. A channel for which all the shows are aired live, including the comedies, dramas, game shows, kids shows, etc.
The Oops Channel - A channel dedicated to showing bloopers, outtakes, deleted scenes, etc.
I hope these aren't the worst TV channel ideas everI admit some of them are a bit odd.

A 24/7 video game channel. Kind of like TechTV that doesn't turn into G4.
A music video channel. I don't know if anyone has tried that yet
A Billy Mays channel, featuring nothing but Billy Mays infomercials.
An "anti-reality" network, that has a smart self-destruct mechanism programmed into the studio and offices should some lazy executive decide to air a reality show on it.
An anti-channel hooked up to random TVs across the world which shows the living room or bedroom of the viewers for a short period of time. The technology would be embedded into future TVs (for all we know it already is.) The channel that watches you! (aka NSA)
A channel dedicated to football 24/7 year round Oh wait, I think they already have one called ESPN.
A non-premium movie channel with continuous play of movies. Play the movies in letterbox and have muted, non-distracting ads on the top and bottom when needed. -

The Mechanical TV Channel - A recreation of mechanical television of the 1930s.
The Car Crusher Channel - Nothing but videos of cars being crushed.
The 8-Bit Graphics Channel - Colourful graphics generated by 8-bit computers, combined with 8-bit music
The Nintendo Channel - An entire channel dedicated to Nintendo
The Video-Tape Channel - Dedicated to 1950s-1980s programming that was shot on video-tape
The Price is Right Channel - Dedicated to repeating episodes of "The Price is Right". They've certainly made enough episodes of it to do a channel of it.
The Radio Channel - Dedicated to "showing" old time radio shows, combined with various interesting (but not distracting) visuals
The Popcorn Channel - Videos of popcorn popping.

The Opera Channel - Dedicated to showing TV and film versions of operas. They would be "daring" enough to show adaptations that have not been available for viewing for some time (such as
The Devil Take Her (1962)
)
The Anthology Channel - Nothing but anthology series
The Classic Talk Show Channel - Dedicated to classic talk shows of 1950s-1990s. I bet many of them are historically interesting now.
The Gameplay Channel - Walkthroughs, playthroughs, etc of video games.
The Classic News Channel - Dedicated to showing classic newscasts, newsreels, etc.
Any thoughts on these formats?
