NFL Network - NFL RedZone Channel

NFL RedZone Channel

The NFL RedZone Channel is a special game day only channel airing from 1 p.m. ET/10 a.m. PT - 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT with extended highlights, available on Sundays (or alternate game day during Christmas week) during the regular season, which premiered on September 13, 2009; although a DirecTV produced channel under the same name was available to DirecTV subscribers as part of NFL Sunday Ticket prior to this date and in fact continues to run concurrently. It is hosted by Scott Hanson who explains and describes situations in transition from game to game. So far AT&T U-Verse, Comcast, Time Warner Cable, Cox Communications, Charter Communications, Dish Network, Golden Belt Telephone, Verizon FiOS, Blue Ridge Communications, BendBroadband, Buckeye Cable, and several smaller cable companies have picked up the new channel. The channel is available in both standard and high definition, and availability depends on service tier, such as Charter making NFL Network available on their main digital tier, but with RedZone only on their digital sports tier at an additional cost.

In the United Kingdom, the Redzone Channel was made available as a Red Button option to Sky Digital subscribers in December 2010. The service was expanded to Virgin Media subscribers, again as a Red Button option, from the beginning of the 2011 season.

Famous quotes containing the word channel:

    Eddie did not die. He is no longer on Channel 4, and our sets are tuned to Channel 4; he’s on Channel 7, but he’s still broadcasting. Physical incarnation is highly overrated; it is one corner of universal possibility.
    Marianne Williamson (b. 1953)
