E! XM 162 is dead

[the yates tub]

E! Entertainment Radio, formerly on XM 162, was removed without notice.

E! is no longer on SIRIUS XM Satellite Radio

As of November 6th SIRIUS XM no longer carries E! Entertainment, XM 162. This is due to scheduling changes made across the platform. We do however still offer talk programming from great brands such as Oprah & Friends, America Right, America Left, XM Comedy and many more.

Where did you get the info you put in the quote?

FWIW, I checked Sirius (107) and their E! channel is gone too. I don't know when it disappeared because I don't listen to it that much.

Great thanks..

I'm trying to piece together what's going to happen in the next three days.

E! has been off Sirius for a while now, but they never bothered to remove the E! page on their web site.... http://www.sirius.com/eentertainmentradio

I hope with this merger, they get the XM web people looking after the Sirius site.

E! was the only channel my wife and daughter listened to Sirius for. It passed a lot of the time for them during our summer vacation drive to California and back (almost 3000 km each way).

Having only listened to "Cosmo" a couple of times, I (and my wife and daughter) really miss the E! radio personalities (eg: Ryan Seacrest and Michael Yo's "Yo On E!"). My daughter is a big fan of "The Hills" and Yo's show often talked about the latest gossip surrounding the show, plus often had guests involved with the show on. E! channel seemed to be affiliated (and have personalities associated) with E! Channel TV, and "Cosmo" seems to be affiliated with the magazine of the same name.
So far not crazy about the Cosmo hosts during the afternoon show, that is in the same time slot of the replaced "Yo On E!". But I have to admit, I have listened to very little of Cosmo outside that time period.

That depends. If E! regularly discussed and asked for callers to call in with suggestions for names of what to call the term when a female is faced with the situation of having "a wedgie in the front", then I guess it could be comparable. At least that's what they were talking about on Cosmo the other morning when I tuned in briefly.
