Classic Reruns TV, an over-the-air and streaming network featuring content spanning across the decades will now be The Nostalgia Network (NOST) starting Monday, April 3rd. This rebranding will include the transition to a more movie-centric network showcasing a curated selection of family-friendly classic movies spanning five decades, starting from the 1940s to the early 1980s.
Founded in 2020 as a Roku video on-demand channel and then in 2021 as a 24/7 over-the-air channel, The Nostalgia Network has grown at a phenomenal rate and continues to expand due to viewer’s demands for more family-friendly content. NOST gives viewers, old and new, the opportunity to connect with entertaining classic content that resonates across a wide range of age and interests.

Our revamped channel is designed to evoke cherished memories while creating new ones for generations to come.”
The channel’s lineup will feature a wide range of legendary movies from all genres, from High Noon westerns each weekday at Noon, to Primetime Spotlight films weeknights at 8 p.m, NOST offers every nostalgic movie you could imagine.
