MeTV’s parent company, Weigel Broadcasting, is bringing classic Westerns back to the small screen with a brand-new channel called WEST. Launching September 29, 2025, the network will air favorites like Gunsmoke, Bonanza, Rawhide and The Virginian around the clock. It is the first channel in years devoted entirely to Westerns, and is a free over-the-air channel, meaning it can be watched without cable or any kind of special subscription; however, figuring out where it will be airing in your area will require a little bit of extra research.
