Considering it's a Universal owned channel, it'll just take over NOW 80s on COM7.

There is nothing to stop any channel buying any other provider's shows for their own network if that's what they want to do.
Anyway I'm sure they've done it just to annoy you
Why is Hunting Hitler shown FTA on Discovery owned DMAX in the UK when it is a History channel show from the US (owned by A&E Networks)? Should it not be on A&E owned FTA Blaze in the UK?

It may have been broadcast by History in the US but it wasn't produced by them, so the independent production company (Karga 7 Pictures) is free to sell it to who they like. I suspect History/A&E may had had the option for global rights and declined.
Be nicer and more tolerant to each other. Them's the rules.

Lewis entered his name into the wrong text box on a mux admin page?
Not major enough to warrant an own thread but for some reason BBC News HD was given the name LewisEWS HD for a period of 5 minutes? Any reason behind this or am I just going insane?
