Retirement Living Television Network
There is a new network targeted at people 62 and older. An article on SeniorLiving.com (July 2006) reports that the Retirement Living Television Network will have programs such as:
Amazing Seniors: A one-hour program that tells stories about ordinary individuals and the extraordinary lives they lead. Stories will focus on the creative lives that older Americans lead as artists, athletes, leaders, and more.
The Doctor’s Hour: A one-hour, live call-in show. The largest group of geriatric experts in the world will be available to answer questions from viewers across the country.
The Voice: A live-audience, interview-based show that discusses social issues important to older Americans.
Programs focusing on personal finance, travel, cooking, and fitness, specifically aimed at retirees, are also planned.
The network came on the air September 5, 2006. In a press release issued September 6, 2006 from The Erickson Tribune, the show is described as follows:
Retirement Living, a new cable television venture designed specifically for people 55 and older, began airing daily yesterday, September 5. You can see Retirement Living Monday thru Friday on CN8, The Comcast Network, from 12 noon to 4 p.m., EST. CN8 is the nation’s leading regional cable network serving more than 9 million Comcast Cable homes in 12 states and 20 television markets, stretching from Maine to Virginia, and Washington D.C. You can also view programming via simultaneous Webcasts on www.CN8.tv. You can follow the progress at www.RL.tv.
