No. ABC Family is a cable/satellite channel. ABC is the main network that shows your local news, The View, Lost, Grey's Anatomy, Oprah, etc. ABC Family is a little brother to ABC where they show some of the old "TGIF" shows( Family Matters, Boy Meets World, Step By Step) and old WB/CW shows like 7th Heaven, Smallville, and Gilmore Girls. ABC basically bought out the "Family Channel" a while ago (at least 5 or 6 yrs ago) and made it into what it is now

ABC is network TV. And ABC Family is a cable channel.
It would be a different channel number on every cable company.
On Time Warner, mine is 13 for ABC, and 57 for ABC Family.

No, sorry. ABC Family is on a separate channel.. for me on Long Island it's channel 39. The name basically says it all- it plays mostly "family" shows like Everwood, Smallville, Boy Meets World, Sabrina, Gilmore Girls, and Whose Line is it Anyway and a lot of movies during the holidays.
