ALN, formerly AmericanLife TV Network, GoodLife TV Network, and The Nostalgia Channel, is an American cable television network. It is Christian owned and offers "family values" programming. The channel describes itself as devoted to programming for the baby boomer generation.

Description and history

ALN was launched on May 1, 1985. It was owned by the Unification Church from 2001 to 2009. According to a June 2007 story in Variety, the network had been a consistent money-loser for the church, although its tax-exempt status made it easier to absorb the losses. Vice-president of marketing Darlene Chapman-Holmes blamed AmericanLife TV's status as "a niche, standalone network that doesn't have any leverage" for its failure to land more lucrative carriage deals with cable and satellite system operators.
