I searched with no luck, and hope it is okay to post this here.

Has any Comcast cable subscribers been foisted on with the new ‘guide’ format? When you’re channel surfing surely you will notice it. Black and blue and 1980’s Radio Shack font?

Anyone from Comcast here" Seriously? This is the best you can do? Put the old format back I demand it!

'Bout time they caught up to [DirecTV](http://www.macopinion.com/images/uploads/dtv-guide.jpg).

You know you can change the color, right?

I haven’t noticed a change. It’s still predominantly blue with selected shows highlighted in yellow. Like [this](http://i840.photobucket.com/albums/zz328/luxurata/xfinity_1.jpg) basically. The only change I’ve noticed is a logo change from Comcast to Xfinity. Outside of that, it’s the same as it’s been for the last several years. Maybe they just haven’t rolled it out here in Arizona yet.
