Are you a member of the growing population of rural citizens? RFD-TV, known as “Rural Free Delivery TV” could be just for you. This DirecTV satellite television channel is solely dedicated to bringing rural and country homeowners full programming that covers rural concerns, issues, as well as entertainment shows.
Stationed physically at Northstar Studios in Nashville, Tennessee, and airing on DirecTV channel 345, RFD-TV has been the leading rural television channel since its launch in December of 2000. When it comes to the network slogan “Rural America’s Most Important Network”, it never fails to deliver on its promise. From agricultural TV shows and reports, to music and even equine concerns, RFD-TV covers a lot of ground.
One of the biggest contributors to the success of this network is the ever controversial, albeit extremely entertaining, “Imus in the Morning” radio show that is broadcast early morning from 6amto 9am during the week. Don Imus, the man behind the show’s namesake is the main host on this talk show that covers many news and public interest stories with full commentary, and even a news ticker at the bottom of the screen that shows the daily news.
Many will be happy to hear of the reunion and new broadcasting of the “Crook & Chase” show as well as so many other shows including “America’s Heartland”, “Prairie Farm Report”, “The Cattle Show”, “Best of America By Horseback”, “Hee Haw”, “The Porter Wagoner Show”, and “Pop! Goes The Country”, to name just a few. Live auctions of all sorts appear on more than one show in RFD-TV’s programming lineup and are just one more reason this satellite television channel has the perfect balance of entertainment and information appreciated by those of us in far out country places.
