I don't know if Reelz Channel is also offered on cable, but on DirecTV, it's channel 238.

The commercial for it is so amateur and irritating, it makes me want to scream.  I haven't even actually watched it; I really listen more to the TV while I'm on the computer or doing other things, so it's the "song" (and I use the word loosely) that gets me. 

I don't even know where to find it (I tried YouTube, but only half-heartedly), but it's one of those songs I hate where the guitar plays the same melody as the singer, each syllable both sung and strummed. 

I wonder if anyone knows what I'm talking about.  But I hate it. Grrr.

If you're reffering to the commercial that has a really annoying, poorly sung song, then we have the exact same commerical on DishNetwork (I think it's channel 299 for us)
 
apparently an annoying song is supposed to get me to watch previews for movies I don't plan on seeing...

repoed2, it's probably the same.  It sounds like it.

Oh yay!!  Just want I want to see, a channel showing movie previews!!    If I wanted to watch that I could rent a DVD and sit through all the ad sh*t or go to a movie and pay big bucks to watch commercials.   

You know there are too many TV channels when you have a channel that shows movie previews.

EDIT: I do have this channel, channel 275 on TWC.
