Below is the link to the Pseudo-TV playlists I have been working on.

I am open to suggestions. Here is the readme information.
Pseudo-TV Playlists
Purpose:
Provide a set of pre-defined channels for use in Pseudo-TV add-on for XBMC.
Limitations:
1. Current version of Pseudo-TV does not support empty playlists. Therefore, I am unable to provide a preset list of channels since any channel that returns an empty playlist will cause Pseudo-TV to fail.
2. Current version of Pseudo-TV does not support mixed (episodes and movies) playlists.
Workarounds:
1. I have provided a set of channel playlists which can be copied and renamed to the Channel_X.xsd format. Select the channels which work for your XBMC video content and rename accordingly, Channel_1.xsd, Channel_2.xsd, etc.
How They WorK:
There are four types of playlists:
1. Channel Playlists
2. Episode Playlists
3. Movie Playlists
4. Pseudo-TV Channel Playlists
Each Channel playlist contains one or more of the episode playlists or movie playlists and provides the limit and order type setting. They are named as follows:
channel - (type) - (genre) - (format) - (limit) - (order)
type = movies or tv
genre = action, drama, comedy, etc.
format = sd or hd
limit = limit number of items in the list: none = all
order = order of the playlist: random, season asc (ascending), etc.
The Episodes playlists are used in the tv channels to determine which episodes to list for the channel. These should not be changed and are required for the tv channels to work.
The Movies playlists are used in the movies channels to determine which movies to list for the channel. These should not be changed and are required for the movie channels to work.
The Pseudo-TV Channel Playlists are provided as samples of a Pseudo-TV channel listing. Each one is a copy of a channel playlist with the smart playlist name changed to a shorter version for the EPG, i.e. Action TV or Comedy Movies.
How To Install:
1. Download the four zip files (channels.zip, episodes.zip, movies.zip and Pseudo-TV_Channels.zip). The files are versioned, so download the latest versions.
2. Unzip each file to your video playlist folder.
3. Select the channels you want to use from the Pseudo-TV Channels (Channel_X_Name) and rename them to Channel_1.xsd, Channel_2.xsd, etc. to build your own channel listing.
You can also copy any Channel playlist and rename to Channel_X.xsd. For example, if you want your Current TV channel to show all episodes aired in the last 4 weeks instead of 2 weeks, you would replace "Channel_1_Current TV.xsd" with "channel - tv - last 4 weeks - 50 items - none.xsp" and rename the playlist name to "Current TV" or whatever you want.
To Do:
1. Still working on what is the best number of items for each channel. This is subjective so I may include different channels with different limits, i.e. 25 items, 50 items, 100 items, etc.
2. Need to add HD TV channels. I don't have any but I am sure other may.
3. Need to add HD Movie channels to Pseudo-TV Channels. Just ran out of time for this release.
