Freakin Travel Channel. We don't get the Travel Channel in my area. I can't stand that this channel gets awesome coaster shows and I can't watch any of them. It totally sucks. Oh well, I guess I'll have to make do. Peace. :(

Discovery Channel owns both the Travel Channel (and TLC) so there's a chance you'll see these shows on the Discovery Channel in the future.

Blast Coaster, thanks for that news. The movie is at least partly responsible for the founding of ACE.

The TLC site says that "Scream Machines" is going to be on Wednesday, March 21st @ 8:00pm and again at 11:00pm and agin on Saturday, March 24th at 2:00pm and 2:00am. They didn't give times for the other shows though :(

Wow, the thunderbolt dropped down to number three on napha's list, and it looks like Medusa replaced the steel phantom. Looks like kennywood did make a mistake. Oh well, we'll just have to wait till we ride the revenge.
