Thank you, Chris, for letting us know about this free preview! Do you know about an upcoming free preview? Let me know about it!
Channel Lineup:
Check with your local provider.
No Hulu?
Well, usually DirecTV is good with its receiver “messages” you can view via the menu. Those messages pop up a week before the preview (if one is listed) but there is no new messages signifying about any upcoming previews. This is Monday, August 27. I am gonna hope something pops up later in the week to confirm (or not) this “Free Preview”.
is spectrum on this list ?
no spectrum again huh? whose surprised
with their horrible service>
Doesn’t look like it. But you can always tune to it mid Friday to see if its unlocked for the weekend.
You can see another list of providers having the free preview here:

Appears to be some on this list that are not listed here, but I don’t see Spectrum (or Charter) unless it also goes by another name. But that doesn’t necessarily mean they aren’t participating.
FYI – TMC is included in the free preview weekend along with Showtime for Cox in Orange County California. I’m watching it now!
Thanks~
hasn’t started yet on Dish, and they’re usually a day early on these
its up now on Dish
