We have been watching RFD-TV on Verizon for several years now. But not anymore! It's been cancelled. We are in our 70's and particularly enjoyed many of the shows that appeal to our age group. One in particular was the Molly B Polka Party. But there were other shows as well, like the Gaither Gospel Hour. We can't find these kinds of shows on any other channel. We don't understand why a network like this would be excluded from the line up. There are a myriad of shows for kids, as well as channels that offer stuff for adults, but RFD was one in a million, offering information for those of us who enjoy the rural lifestyle. Yes, we are suburbanites now, but my daughter grew up horseback riding and there were shows for that as well. My husband and I used to get up and dance when Molly B came on. There is such an empty spot where it used to be.

I would urge you to put a stop to the cancellation of this channel and what it had to offer for those of us who don't care to watch the news all the time or cartoons, or off color movies or shows that have nothing but canned laughter. We are active, productive seniors who wish to keep a good thing from disappearing.
