How many Spanish channels do you have?
How many Spanish channels do you get, and how much do you watch them? I get two (public tv) and watch them maybe 5-6 hours aweek.

I have about 100 Spanish channels and can't understand any of them. 
Tengo cerca de 100 canales en español y no puede entender cualquiera de ellos.
None - but I do get lots of Welsh ones 
Good questions!
I get Univision/Galavision Telefutura Telemundo and Azteca America.
I occasionally enjoy a telenovela (soap opera), since they're not on-going for years, like here in the States. I only wish they would 'bring it down' a notch or two. They're Very highly & emotionally charged and I've Never seen an episode that didn't involve profuse & agonizing tears! They're extremely dramatic...making 'our' soaps look like snooze-fests! 
I Love the cartoons! I'm up early (or record) most weekends to catch my favorites~~~I'm trying to at least Master the 'See-Spot-Run' level. 
Also, I enjoy the home makeover & personal styling makeover shows, as well as the cooking shows and some Newscasts.
My viewing time is sporadic. I'm not really a 'TV person', but I'd say I average approximately 4-5 hrs of viewing/listening time per week....mostly while house-cleaning! Since I'm deaf in one ear, I Always have the Caption on (especially since my husband isn't much of a substitute hearing-aid for me. 
In fact, he misses almost as much as I do and he can hear perfectly out of Both ears!) Though the Caption is seldom 'in sync' with what's actually being said, it still gives me good practice!
I have Insight Cable and I get three-
Univision, SiTV, and MTVtr3s. HBO Latino is available but I don't subscribe.
The only one I watch is Univision, but honestly that gets a little racy sometimes and my wife freaks out. 
Of course she doesn't understand a word of it, which probably makes it worse.
I wish we got Telemundo!
All but one channel is in spanish. However, I am actually in Mexico so this makes sense. 
I actually changed it so that the tv would choose an english track when it was availible. I am just not fast enough to translate my show so that I can follow it (and the voices... the dubs are very silly to my ears). I do leave the spanish subtitles on though. This helps me a lot as I can see the words and how they are spelled.
I get the old American standbys Telemundo and Univision aa well Univision owned Galavision and Telefutura and the realitively new Azteca America. Out of all of these, I enjoy Galavison because of it wider variety of programming. I am not really into telenovelas as I am picky about what I put into my mind no matter what language it is in . I like the nature progra Vida Salvaje , and the travel program Un Destino I also like watching Marcos Witt on Daystar's Spanish programming block. I also found clips of El Baile, the Chilean version of Strictly Come Dancing on YouTube.

but I have Comcast and don't get any.
I was just curious about the general area where you live (east coast, west coast, mid-west?) I also have Comcast on the east coast, but get several Spanish speaking channels. I haven't done a complete count, but there are three that I watch on a regular basis, including "Univision" and "Telemundo". There are also many options available with"On Demand", including movies and some other premium channels which are available for an additional fee.
The amount of time I spend watching Spanish TV varies from week to week. I try to watch a minimum of ten to twenty minutes daily, even if it is an infomercial. I have learned so many things just from paying attention to commercials. I think this is due to the repetition.
I'm not one to watch soap operas, at least not American ones. However, my absolute favorite telenovela is "Madra Luna". This ran for about eighteen months and ended about a year ago. I've been waiting for a new one to capture my attention in the same way, but still haven't found one yet. 
The search is still on!!!
I don't get any :( My parents, who live near me, get some on FIOS, but I have Comcast and don't get any. Boy I wish I did, it would help my learning of Spanish. Sometimes I watch movies on DVD in Spanish and with Spanish subtitles.
