I just talked to Directv and they told me that Pax will be on there through 2006. So for those of you who can't live without Supermarket Sweep...HORRAY!

I too talked to DirecTV and they told me it was leaving, just not when. Did they specify to you which Pax is going? National or Local. I have both, so... That is so weird. DirecTV really needs to get their stories straight...

I was told in a mailer that Pax would be gone on the 26th of September. I noticed that on Sunday, the 29 it was still there so I called them and they told me that it was not going anywhere due to a last minute negociation with the operators of the channel. They did not specify that either one was leaving so I assume whichever one you have is staying until 2006 at least unless the operators put it out buisness like they did with CNN/SI. As long as it is running Directv will have it until 2006. Yes, Directv does tend to change stories alot but since it was supposed to be gone four days ago and its still here I guess we can believe this one.

Oh, okay; thanks for clearing that up for me. The person I talked to obviously wasn't sure, and must not have been given the proper information. Well, I'm glad it's staying, I was hoping DirecTV would bring on GoodLife... Oh well. Again, thanks for clearing that up... I think I'll call them again and see what they tell me ;) lol and see if they have their stories straight right now. And you know, after reading your post, I found the mailer they sent me as well, LOL... Anyway... moving on, LOL

This is great, now if only they would bring The Hogan Family back.

The Hogan family would be great. I never knew it was on PAX until it was gone so I have not seen any of them since the late 80's and would love to see them again. Did PAX air the early ones with Valerie Harper or just the ones with Sandy Duncan?

I watched it on Pax regularly for a while, and they aired all seasons of the series.
