The Final of the Championship on Saturday, May 28th (12:30pm ET) is confirmed LIVE for both networks. As of today, there is no sign that the League 1 or 2 finals will be broadcast or even streamed by beIN. SA www.soccertvblog.com
The League-1 Promotion Final will be LIVE on beINSport-4 (streaming). There are no scheduled showings of the match on delay on the TV channels. Kickoff 10am ET on Sunday, May 29th. There will be no coverage of the League-2 Final. SA www.soccertvblog.com
Kind of cool bit of trivia for beIN's opening Championship weekend: the club's featured in live matches have been champions of England 19 times (combined -- four of the eight having won top flight titles). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_English_football_champions#Total_titles_won And 2 of them have won the European Cup.
Great, BeIN is going with Cordero and Bonetti on this Fulham-Newcastle telecast instead of the world feed announcer, who's usually someone really good like Jon Champion. Hopefully this is just because this game kind of stands alone and once the other leagues are underway they'll revert to the world feed.
Does anyone know if the Football League Show, with weekly highlights, will be available this year? I can't find it on my DISH Network program guide, or on the beIN site. Thanks!

Related: Channel 5 in the UK has reorganized their EFL highlights. What was once Football League Tonight is now The Championship (an hour on that division) followed by Goal Rush which is 30 minutes of goals from League 1 and 2. Available for a week on their site, need to switch to a UK VPN. https://www.my5.tv/football-on-5-the-championship/season-201617 https://www.my5.tv/football-on-5-goal-rush/season-201617

Does the EFL produce any games not televised in the UK (thinking 3pm - 10am US ET - start time games blacked out in the UK) for international TV?
Yep - one per week. This week it's Birmingham-Wolves. I'm pretty sure this match is selected by the League, perhaps with UK highlight partners Channel 5. That featured match is shown internationally and gets extended highlights (with commentary) on Channel 5's The Championship on Saturday nights.
