However, if you have already subscribed to one of the fun-packed TV packages mentioned above, you might have heard the news about Spectrum dropping channels that are owned by Viacom. The dispute between Viacom and Spectrum first surfaced in 2017 and resulted in an “agreement in principle” the same year according to which Spectrum subscribers continued to have access to Viacom networks on Spectrum TV.
Rumor has it the dispute may once again surface. Many Spectrum subscribers fear seeing a popup saying “this channel is currently unavailable”, as they did in 2017. Thus far, however, nothing can be said with certainty about Spectrum dropping channels in 2020.
The two corporate giants had a totally different take on the matter 3 years ago. Yet at the end of it all, Charter Spectrum™ and Viacom entered into a multi-year renewal and expansion agreement regarding their distribution relationship. And the much-awaited resolution brought a sigh of relief to Spectrum TV subscribers. After all, the list of expected Spectrum missing channels was supposed to include some of the most-watched networks in America—the go-to-channels for countless TV watchers.
The best-loved American networks that became a source of dispute between Viacom and Spectrum, included MTV, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, VH1, BET, CMT, Paramount Network (formerly Spike), Nick Jr., TV Land, MTV2, Nicktoons, TeenNick, MTV Classic, Nick Music, MTV Live, BET Her, Tr3s, etc.
Nickelodeon, BET, MTV, Comedy Central, Spike (Paramount Network), VH1, TV Land and CMT were kept in the SELECT lineup while additional Viacom networks were made available on other plans’ lineups following the Charter-Viacom agreement in 2017.
Spectrum was set to drop 23 Viacom networks that included BET, Nickelodeon, MTV, and Comedy Central, and more, back in 2017. At the time, however, a mutual agreement averted the pulling back of these networks.
