Must reinstall channels after every Mac restart

[robotarmy]

I've noticed that when I restart my Mac, my Channels is no longer functioning. The little TV icon (see screenshot) is absent from the menu bar, and when I navigate to the bookmarked page for Channels, I get an error that Safari cannot open the page. Also, I cannot find an actual "Channels" application in order to make it a login item. The only thing I've been able to do is open the Channels installer and reinstall. Am I doing something wrong? How can I have channels available even after I restart my Mac?

Thanks...

If you go to System Settings -> General -> Login Items do you see Fancy Bits as enabled or disabled?

LOL! Fancy Bits! Whoda thunk it?

It was indeed disabled. I had no idea…!

Thank you and Happy Holidays!
