Arabic satellite

ART is ok, they mostly play movies and stuff. MBC is my favorite channel. Bridget, I'm guessing your husband may want some of the Egyptian channels that Dish Network offers like Nile and ESC-1.

we'll see. I'm not doing anything till he gets here but each time I was with him he loved watching Law and Order so maybe he won't even want arabic tv at all. He is a soccer addict though so time will tell.

Any Arabic channels we get online for free (either he watches on the PC or hooks up to the TV). Maybe when we move we'll consider getting a dish, but for now our building doesn't allow it.

I just got a 19 inch monitor for my computer a couple of weeks ago so he should be happy to watch it online.

My husband watches a great deal of American TV but I think he just finds comfort in knowing that we have the arabic channels. We do watch, actually I do more than he does and when his parents were here for 4 months that is all they watched besides Animal Planet. I have the highest package and it costs me about $40 a month and then I opted to add the music channels for another $7 per month. I pay about $120 a month for 200 channels, Arabic, Showtime, HBO, and Cinnemax. I also have a dual reciever with DVR's. I think I'm getting a good deal.

Hi all,

i'm just reviving an old thread on how to get Arabic channels on the TV.

Those of you that have "Dish Network" is that like Direct TV? i'm in New York and i'm about to hook up cable & internet service, just wondering what i should pick to get some Arabic.

Also, do any of you have Optimum Online? Do they have an Arabic add-on, do you know?

Thanks!!

Anyone know which channels dish network moved the arabic stations to?

I used to have the arabic channels in the last place I lived, but Dish Network made me put up another satellite to get those channels. I didn't feel like putting another satellite up here so I don't have the arabic channels. I keep debating what to do when my husband comes and I miss watching the arabic channels myself. Arabic news stations have a different twist on the news that I find interesting.

I'll definitely try to find some Arabic channels for my husband when he gets here but NO ONE controls my remote but me so I'm not worried about that.

No one knows where the new Arabic channels are on Dish network?

[AlHayatZween 2]

i don't even know what the Dish Network is, maybe it is a west coast thing? i am in New York.

i am wondering if anyone on the east coast has the Arabic channels listed on the Direct TV program? they don't look very good to me... no Al Jazeera, which is the one we would want, along with the soaps.

do most of you watch online? is that how you are getting Arabic tv?

interested in knowing...

thanks!!

No, I'm on the east coast! NC.... I didn't know Direct TV even had Arabic channels... must be something new but after looking at their line up it doesn't seem very impressive. Dish Networks Arabic line up is much better but they moved all the channels this year and I don't have a clue where they are.... maybe they canceled them.
