Mens Outdoors & Recreation Channel No Longer On Dish Network or DirecTV
August 28, 2007 5 CommentsThe Men’s Outdoors & Recreation Channel also known as MOR is no longer available on Dish Network or DirecTV. The Men’s Outdoors & Recreation Channel which use to be Channel 218 on Dish Network and channel 604 on DirecTV has been taken down. The parent company of The Men’s Outdoors & Recreation Channel Turner Media Group (TMG) also known as The Media Group, filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy in August.
Turner Media Group, the parent company of the Mens Outdoors & Recreation Channel (MOR) also owns and operates seven other national networks:
· Healthy Living Channel
· The Men’s Channel
· Beauty & Fashion Channel
· iDrive
· Resort and Residence,
· America’s Preview Channel
· iShop TV.
We will follow Turner Media Group’s bankruptcy re-organization post updates. In the meantime, we recommend The Outdoor Channel as substitute for the Men’s Outdoors & Recreation Channel.
The Outdoor Channel (Dish Network Channel Name: OTDCH) is on channel 153. The Outdoor Channel is available in America’s Everything Pak, America’s Top 250 and the Dish Family programming packages. The Outdoor Channel features excellent programming airing time-honored outdoor activities. The programs on The Outdoor Network revolve around fishing, hunting and shooting sports. Outdoor Network shows appeal to sportsmen of all ages making sure the activities are family centered so all true great outdoorsman can enjoy the programming.

Why not replace MOR with The Sportsman Channel? The Sportsman Channel airs “All Hunting” and “All Fishing” 24/7. The Outdoor Channel does air some excellent programming but also airs “Paid Programming” as well. I’d rather stick my finger down my throat than watch paid programming. At least, for now anyway, I can access The Sportsman Channel on my computer and watch the shows there.
I agree The Sportsman Channel would be a great fit for Dish Network and I know there are a lot of sportsmen looking for outdoor programs right now.
I feel we need an outdoor program equivilent to mor , that was the best channel for hunting. If the Sportsman Channel has they same programs I agree that we should get it.
I have Direct-tv and they should pick-up the Sportsman channel as soon as possible. The MOR channel was awesome. It had the best Hunting and fishing programs possible. It will be sorely missed by all sportsman especially hunters. Thanks Dish for letting me express my opinion.
MOR is dead. the best channel on tv is gone!!! due to the fact that dish pulled MOR from it’s network. please go to lonestaroutdoornews.com to read more.
