This TV off the air in Dallas-Fort Worth

Starting today, no more ThisTV on WFAA's 8.3 channel. And This TV's website is down right now. Anyone know what's going on?

ThisTV is currently on the air on Belo's KTVK 3.2 Phoenix (10:05 AM MT).

ThisTV Cleveland is still on at WUAB/43.2. If the website is down, it may just be coincidental.

Oddly enough, the previous occupant of 43.2 was the music video channel "The Tube". WUAB aired the "Sorry, the Tube is out of business, don't call us, it's not our fault, honest!" slide (OK, I'm paraphrasing) for well over a year.

Just checked, and I have no problem getting to ThisTV.com.

Thanks, I had a bad link saved in my Favorites. But ThisTV IS gone from WFAA.

This TV's website says they're now on K31GL, channel 31.3.

Which isn't carried on any cable system in the area. It's part of a change announced months ago, according to Wiki's WFAA page:

Subchannel 8.3 originally carried This TV until November 8, 2010, when it moved to low-powered station K31GL-D channel 31.3. WFAA plans on replacing this subchannel around this time with the Live Well Network.[6]

Good thing I have an antenna to get 31.3 with.
IMHO WFAA made a mistake replacing THIS with Live Well.
I would've put Live Well on 52.2

...KOLD-TV/v13 Tucson still displays their apology for the disapperance of The Tube on virtual channel 13.3 to this day (three years after the fact)...
 
This TV is doing well in Louisville on WAVE-DT 3.2. By the way, will the pending bankruptcy filing
by MGM Studios affect This TV?

According to RabbitEars.info

http://www.rabbitears.info/search.php?request=network_search&network=Live+Well

Dallas is one of seven cities where Live Well is not (technically) HD so ABC still looks (depending on your view of ABC programming) good. ;)
