It would be really smart if viewers affected by this powered off cable temporarily and watched it on standard broadcast TV.

Looks like Seattle is safe. you would know, they would be running a ticker announcement or something to alert you.

I hope this isn't a precursor of what is going to continue to happen with money disputes and cable/dish providers.

Kandace if your ISP is Time Warner Or BrightHouse, you would be blocked from the episodes by CBS.

Dish Network And Raycom Media Resolve Retransmission Dispute

By DAVID LIEBERMAN

The companies say that Raycom stations will be back on Dish Network “overnight,” and didn’t provide any details about the agreement. The broadcaster owns or controls 53 stations in 36 markets including ABC, CBS, Fox, NBC, CW, and MyNetworkTV affiliates in cities including Cleveland, Toledo, Honolulu, Tucson, Baton Rouge, West Palm Beach, Louisville, and Memphis. The stations went dark on Dish on August 1 when the previous carriage contract expired. Dish accounts for about 15% of Raycom’s viewers, according to data from SNL Kagan.
