=================================
In my opinion, the "high-potential candidates" of channel replacements for the upcoming Disney/Fox channels channel cessation on Astro would be still similar like what I previously mentioned back in May 2021:
Ah, now I would like to add, perhaps they might consider Smithsonian, Travel Channel, H2hmm.gif
*
Hmm HBO Hits,Signature and Family is in HBO GO app,don’t think Astro will bring it to TV
FYI could be potential to replace Nat geo people
Paramount, Blue Ant Entertainment,blue ant extreme,bbc lifestyle and bbc earth already in unifi tv 🤔

Looks like they plan for Astro Wah Lai Toi transition back to TV due to they showing Battleground 2016.

Maybe not. Channel 100 seems to be an archive of Astro 25 years worth of local tv shows and also merdeka themed shows

So now HBO GO also has asian title(HK, Korea, Thailand, etc..)?

According to the Rock Entertainment website, Astro licenses their Smithsonian Channel and Love Nature content as "branded block". Until today, they haven't added Astro as "coming soon" like how they do it with Singtel TV under the Blue Ant Extreme's section. I doubt whether Astro will launch its in-house channels instead of acquiring these channels  hmm.gif  (aka easier programs management and ads slot-in biggrin.gif ).

I wonder how accurate is this wiki update https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Ant_Extreme channel 704
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Ant_Entertainment Channel 703

Yeah... Now we all know that the previously leaked screenshot is actually true and legit, and also the channel numbers for the channel replacements. biggrin.gif 
Because it appears that HBO somehow "don't allow" pay TV providers to slot in their own ads, or maybe HBO wants all their channels to be ad-free in the region, that is why Quake doesn't list HBO Family and HBO Hits channels.
*
Yeah I think all HBO channels in Asia except red don’t have ads
Since rate card says channel effective 1st October guess nothing new is coming tomorrow haha except channel number change
