If these two 1990s to today networks aired at the same time, which would you tune into more often? You can also go back and fourth and name specifically which shows you'd watch.

They're all shows from the 1990's....

[Adamantium]

I pick Schedule #1, though I have favorite shows on both networks. Here's what I'd watch.

8:00pm - Family Matters from #1
8:30pm - Boy Meets World from #2
9:00pm - 8 Simple Rules... from #1
9:30pm - Less Than Perfect from #2
10:00pm - NewsRadio from #1 (I would put my favorite show against Seinfeld)
10:30pm - Ellen from #1
11:00pm - Wings from #2
11:30pm - 3rd Rock from the Sun #1
12:00am - Grace Under Fire from #1
12:30am - Frasier #1

They're all shows from the 1990's....

I want all the shows to be complete so I can't have any current shows. However,

8 Simple Rules... (2002-2005)
That '70s Show (1998-2006)
Will & Grace (1998-2006)

Just Shoot Me, Friends, Frasier & 3rd Rock all ended in the 2000s.

That's not many, but I meant more of a 90s network that goes both ways, from late 80s to middle 2000s. I have decided to edit the post and add Less Than Perfect to Schedule #2.

[Buffyboy323]

I'd watch both. #1 until 1am, then switch over to #2: (If I had to choose just 1, I'd stay with the first schedule.)

I'd watch:
Schedule #1
8:00pm - "Family Matters"
8:30pm - "Step by Step"
9:00pm - "8 Simple Rules..."
9:30pm - "Blossom"
11:30pm - "3rd Rock from the Sun"
12:30am - "Frasier"

Schedule #2
1:00am - "Full House"
1:30am - "Boy Meets World"
2:00am - "Sabrina the Teenage Witch"
2:30am - "Less Than Perfect"
3:00am - "Seinfeld"
3:30am - "Friends"
4:30am - "Suddenly Susan"

I would watch...

8:00PM FULL HOUSE
8:30PM BOY MEETS WORLD
9:00PM 8 SIMPLE RULES
9:30PM --neither--
10:00PM SEINFELD
10:30PM --neither--
11:00PM WINGS
11:30PM 3RD ROCK FROM THE SUN
12:00AM --neither--
12:30AM --neither--
1-6AM same thing over again

I'd take #1 because "Full House" isn't in it!

If you want to analyze things a step further, how would you like to see a schedule like this:


1:00pm The Wonder Years
1:30pm Grace Under Fire
2:00pm The Nanny
2:30pm Frasier
3:00pm Beverly Hills, 90210
4:00pm Ellen
4:30pm The Wonder Years
5:00pm Seinfeld
5:30pm Married ... With Children
6:00pm Due South

8:00pm Seinfeld
8:30pm Seinfeld
9:00pm Ellen
9:30pm Grace Under Fire
10:00pm Frasier
10:30pm Married ... With Children

12:00am Seinfeld
12:30am Seinfeld
1:00am Married ... With Children
1:30am Married ... With Children
2:00am Frasier
2:30am The Nanny
3:00am Beverly Hills, 90210
4:00am Ellen
4:30am The Wonder Years
5:00am Grace Under Fire
5:30am Seinfeld


I did not make this up. This is an actual schedule from the Canadian channel TVTropolis (The Channel Formerly Known As Prime!). It's similar to your Schedule #1 except that it also includes "Seinfeld" and "Married With Children". I would not watch it myself because I prefer more older shows from the 50s to the mid-70s. Still, if you like what you see, you might want to spend some money on a perfectly good dish.
