Comcast Cable, which serves Oregon communities including Portland, extended the availability of Shalom TV to more than 14 million digital customers as a free video-on-demand service Feb. 1.

This was the first time that a major American television provider offered a Jewish network as part of its own nationwide lineup.

A mainstream Jewish network, Shalom TV provides an array of English-language programming from entertainment and children’s programs to news analysis, event coverage and Jewish studies.

Comcast viewers will access Shalom TV through “On Demand” and the “TV Entertainment” folder, then by scrolling down to the second or third page.
