NBCSN to reappear on YouTube TV


NBCUniversal is adding to its mix of sports offerings Monday by launching a new cable channel, dubbed NBCSN.

The network will carry mostly sports that are also streamed on NBCU’s Peacock service, including National Basketball Association games, Big Ten college football, golf and Premier League soccer. The Wall Street Journal earlier reported on the planned channel in July.

Google’s YouTube TV, one of the country’s largest pay-TV providers with roughly 10 million subscribers, has already agreed to carry the channel. NBCU parent Comcast will also carry NBCSN on its Xfinity platform, and NBCU said it anticipates closing more deals before the end of the year.

NBCU is wrapping up a deal to carry Major League Baseball on its NBC broadcast network and Peacock beginning next season, and some of those games will also be on NBCSN, people familiar with the matter said.

The service will also carry sports talk programming that currently runs on Peacock, including “The Dan Patrick Show,” a three-hour daily radio and streaming program.

 
I see others adding NBCSN closer to the Olympics or first of the year in my opinion. As I said before NBC shouldn't have shutdown NBCSN in 2022.
 
NBCSN was supposed to launch at Noon ET today on YTTV, but no sign of it yet. I double checked my settings to make sure it wasn’t “hidden”.
 
I found 3 NBC Sports feeds hidden. I unblocked all three, moved them closer to the other sports channels, but they don't yet show.
 
NBCSN finally showed up in my YTTV account around 3pm ET. I had to “unhide” it before it appeared in the app on my Roku box.
3 pm Eastern was noon Pacific. So the station did indeed start at noon -- in the last time zone in the contiguous 48 to reach the noon hour. SiriusXM does the same thing with new channels or starting/ending channel pre-emptions forr Christmas music, tributes to just-died artists, etc. All that stuff starts at 3 a.m. here in the EST zone.
