The Blockening: A Multi-Step Odyssey (Though Not as Epic as The Odyssey)
While Sling TV doesn't offer channel-by-channel blocking like Thanos snapping his fingers (though that would be pretty cool), there are ways to wrangle that channel guide into something a little more user-friendly.
Method the Mighty: Employing Parental Controls
This isn't about restricting your inner child from watching cartoons (although, hey, no judgment there). Sling TV's parental controls allow you to restrict content based on ratings. So, if it's those pesky shopping channels that haunt your dreams, simply set the filter to block content that would make Ron Popeil blush. Remember, with great filtering power comes great responsibility! You wouldn't want to accidentally block out that documentary about the history of the spork, would you?
QuickTip: Stop to think as you go.
Operation Channel Dodge: Hiding Duplicate Channels (Because Seriously, Who Needs Two ESPNs?)

Just delve into your account settings and find the option to hide duplicate channels. Presto! Your guide will be leaner, cleaner, and a channel-surfing dream.

Now, you might be thinking, "There's gotta be a way to block those darn home shopping channels completely!"

There's always the option to contact Sling TV support and politely request the feature (because hey, maybe with enough voices, they'll hear us!).
QuickTip: Reading twice makes retention stronger.
