New subchannel on CBS O&O stations?

It hardly is a brand new subchannel? Wasn't Dabl announced long before it even launched? Probably just some religious/foreign type channel.
 
Look at all of the CBS O&O diginet offerings- do you really think for their next offering they would slum it with some pay-to-pray crap? Or LightTV 2.0?

FaveTV is LIVE as of this morning, and they were airing some episodes of Run’s House. With all the recycled cable content that Viacom has bounced onto their PlutoTV web platform, why not cycle some of those series through a diginet? I have a feeling that’ll be the case with Fave.
 
So it's basically a rerun channel of very old Viacom reality shows with a few oldmovies thrown in? CBSViacom seem to have more newer reruns on Pluto. I thought they may have launched a Spike type channel as a male-orientated version of Dabl with reruns of Spike series like they have on Pluto (almost like the old Spike on cable). Even re-establish the brand on OTA?
 
I never saw the old Fave TV and from what I could find out online it was a part of the old Sky Angel service, which doesn't exist any more. This sounds like a new channel that just happens to use the same name.
 
This is a wholly Viacom endeavor that they’re launching out-of-the-blue on CBS O&O stations. There’s still no website, no social media, no information whatsoever on what this channel is supposed to be. However, their launch day programming so far has consisted of Run’s House, The Jamie Foxx Show, The Wayans Bros., the movie “Total Recall”, and Bar Rescue.
