    Tennis Channel Needs To Be More Attractive To Viewers!

    Tennis channel is getting into the boredom, and the repeats are making it worse. I mean, you fellas don't get me wrong, the channel is a great resource to have us updated about what's happenning in the tennis world, and sections like one of Mr. Jensen traveling around the world showing us the most outstanding tennis destinations and its cultures, along with the briefs of Mr. Meyers,  Classic Tennis, and Signature Series but you guys have to stop the even more often repeats and add more sections to create a variety and diversity to the programming. To all Tennis Channel supporters, let's use this blog/post to help the people of Tennis Channel in creating and coming up with new ideas!!!!!

    I agree completely.  As I said in a previous post I would like to have a regular tennis talk show.  It can be similar to the Mike and Mike Radio/Cable TV sports talk show.  Just get some knowledgeable but low-budget guys or gals to talk tennis, take calls from the public and do the occassional interview either in studio or over the phone.  More live tennis matches would also be nice but I don't agree with responders who just want tennis matches 24/7.  That also gets boring.  I like the specials like No Strings, Open Access, Center Court etc.. that offer insights into the personalities, constroversies, glamour and humor of the game.  More of those would be great. 

    Tennis Channel does so little original programming these days.  Are they struggling for money or the do the owners just don't put that much effort into marketing their product?  Is the French Open coverage just use up all their production budget?

    Normal 0

    I have to agree as well.

    I am relatively new to tennis, only watching a few Wimbledon matches here and there over the last few years. I was so excited about Wimbledon this year that it made me want to learn more about the sport. I learned about The Tennis Channel while looking up air times/dates for the US Open Series. I had no idea the channel existed.

     It's been a couple of weeks now, and I think I've already watched everything you've had to show. If it weren’t for the US Open Series I would have no reason to watch the channel anymore.

     I'm hoping that there is a lot of new programming to come.
