Cablevision to Add TBS HD to High-Definition Line-Up in Time for Start of Major League Baseball Playoffs

TBS HD will become the 41st high-definition programming service available to Cablevision's iO TV customers at no additional cost. In addition to the best HD picture and sound, iO customers receive HD channels without the fees and charges Cablevision's competitors require customers to pay for HD.

"We are pleased to have reached agreement to add TBS HD to our line-up of more than 40 high-definition programming services in time for the MLB playoffs," said John Trierweiler, Cablevision's senior vice president of product management. "This is great news for local baseball fans, and for our growing base of more than 800,000 HD customers."

TBS HD will become available to some iO TV customers with HD-capable set- top boxes on channel 739 beginning on Monday, Oct. 1, and the channel will be available to customers across the company's entire service area by Wednesday.
