Family Choice
Now you can totally block most cable channels without losing many of the great family-friendly networks that cable has offer. Our Family Choice Tier offers squeaky clean Digital Cable channels that includes lots of programming the whole family can view together.*
Here’s How It Works
When you order Family Choice, all other cable channels that do not meet our criteria are blocked out ― or trapped ― before they reach the house. No one in your household can watch these cable channels anywhere in your home.
Keep in mind you will still get all broadcast channels like CBS, ABC, NBC, FOX, etc… which may air unsuitable programming at various times ― but you can use our parental controls features to block TV shows on these channels.
All you need for Family Choice is a Digital Cable set-top box*. Sound right for your family? Contact us to order this tier today.
