What Pakistani channels are available in the USA? In your opinion, which ones are worth getting and which ones are not? And same goes for Indian channels…Dish Network offers 5 or 6 Indian channels. Which ones are the best?
And also, which dish company do you have to get in order to get the Pakistani channels?
You basically have ARY (Ary One World which is 24 hour news and stuff which is on free preview these days) along with entertainment ARY Digital and Geo.
These 2 channels many times are no different from indian channels while prime tv is a paindoo dugga channel though with hum tv and other private productions, their standards have improved (dunno for how long if hum tv comes directly to US?).
ARY, GEO, and PTV. Most people opt for ARY and/or GEO. PTV prime was the first pakistani channel that came to US, but many people unsubscribed after the other 2. I guess it depends on what kind of entertainment/shows you are looking for.
You need to get Dish Network for the pakistani channels
If you have had watched Prime TV, you will see there is a mark improvement in the news dramas they show. The people who have it will know. Like for example, Tum Mere Ho. TV3 Karachi (by Aaj TV?) is crap but that’s just my personal opinion.
Gradually Prime tv has to wean away from being a PTV clone to having its own independent policy. They need to have their own khabarnama for a change!
As for Hum TV (a new channel), there was a rumour about it coming to december, now it is march but I doubt that will happen. Gupshup is not a very credible source and I have yet to see anything about that on dishnetwork website!
