SpongeBob would never have a marathon after 10pm on a Fri and Sat Night on N@N

Roseanne would not be crazy glued to the TV Land schedue 10 hours a day

Barbara Walters would not take 2 hours to utter a sentence on the View

N@N would breath life into other sitcoms from the 80's besides the Cosby show and Roseanne

TV Land would not air no show 11 times in a row

The TV show Cops would not be scripted

The Jacksons Movie would be banned from Cable and Local TV

The TV show Cheaters would be yanked forever

Whoppi Goldberg would dress more like a lady on the View

The History Channel would actually have programming geared toward the PAST

One TV station would give Michael Jackson a proper tribute

Advertisements for Diabetes and Cancer will be for Print only

The woman in the Progressive.com Commercial would be banned from TV

There would only be one HBO, Showtime, and Cinemax channel since they all show movies

BET would air programming that all black people can enjoy not just the Ghetto Black People

TV ONE will be forced to remove Good Times from it's schedule

ION would be removed from all cable lineups and only available to viewers without Cable

Eharmony commercials would state that married couples met besides the year of 2006

Jada Pinkett would never be anywhere near a medical TV drama




Just so many things wrong with the World of TV in 2009

[Chocoholic]

I'll vote for you as King of the TV World :D

[dawsongirl]

:lol: I love this list.

So Jada Pinkett's show stinks?

[OH Nuts!]

Solomon, you'd make a fine King. 100% right on the $$$$$!

[InspectorExstead]

DITTO TO EVERYTHING YOU SAID!!!! I'd vote for you. ;)

[Janice]

Cool list. What's up with Jada Pinkett? I thought you'd like her. She's a doll.

[littlebelle]

BET has some good movies though.

Solomon, these are absolutely cracking me up! :rofl: :rotflmao: :brent
The one in red is my favorite!:rofl: :rofl:

[TVFactFan]

I do admit though, some of these that you made up though are pretty funny & true as well :lol:. And the History Channel does have programming based on the past- what specifically are you referring to Solomon? lol

Like I just watched on the History Channel, about the Chicago mobsters in the 1920s, and the underground trade. Pretty interesting.


History Channel started doing reality shows like TV land

Either BET thinks that ALL black people like Hip Hop related programming or just have no clue that some black people like non-hip hop related programming


Or just change the title of the Network to Hip Hop Entertainment

I so agree with you about BET. It seems all of their program is geared toward rap and hip hop related stuff.

How about showing us something about real good black music or civil rights documentary.

Oh I so agree

[ekkostar]

Private eyes would be the trendy thing instead of vampires.

There would be a new guest star filled anthology series like Twilight Zone or Amazing Stories airing on one of the major networks.

BET, VH1 and MTV would be still airing music videos and specials. BET would actually pay attention to good R&B, Soul and Hip-Hop artists along with the commercial stuff.

TV Land would actually show classic television shows.

Sci-Fi would still be Sci-Fi instead of Siffy.

Oxygen and Lifetime would go back to being about women's concerns and cheesy victim of the week movies instead of being clone syndicated rerun channels.

Spike TV wouldn't air Star Wars so often. I love Star Wars, but they're wearing the movies out. Star Wars used to be like Wizard of Oz back when I was a kid, the trilogy would only air once or twice on HBO or USA in the Summer.

Hallmark Channel would continue their mystery movies instead of slowly becoming WGN's little sister.

G4 would still be gaming, would tone down on trying to be Spike Jr. and would get back to being about technology. I miss Leo Laporte and Patrick Norton a ton and the podcasts or webcasts just don't cut it.

[MrCleveland]

Also...bring back the formats of our Cartoon Shows such as Disney Channel, CN, and Nickelodeon.

That's the first thing I'd do if I was King of the World!...And no Reality Shows.

[Doodyville10019]

Now...If I were QUEEN of the TV UNIVERSE...

* Headline News would go back to being a 24-hour headline news service, rather than being what is presently is - a not too amusing parody of itself.

* Sci-Fi Channel would CEASE and DESIST from being called "syfy", get rid of their grade Z crap movies (or at least just show them on weekends) and go back to their roots of showing really first-class reruns (i.e. Automan, Space: 1999, The Invaders, etc.) and first-class original shows (i.e. Battlestar Galactica) and having actual science fiction writers and producers on its board of directors.

* The History Channel would go back to being just that - a HISTORY channel.

* There would be THREE basic cable channels (one for each decade) dedicated exclusively to TV shows from the '50's, '60s and '70's that no one shows anymore. Gen X-ers can start their own '80's channel if they wish.

* Boomerang would be standard on all cable systems

* MTV, VH-1, VH1-Classic and CMT would go back to being all-music video channels. If they persist in continuing to produce crap reality shows, they can be spun off into separate reality channels.

* All of the hip hop and rap stuff on BET would be spun off onto its own separate channel.

* Nick at Nite would be forever banned. TV Land, though, would stay. Nickelodeon would be a 24-hour cartoon channel, with NICK GAS (Games and Sports - reruns of all their old game shows from the '90's) shown on weekends.

* CNN would force Larry King to finally retire.

That would be cool.

[jasonbigley]

If I Was The King Of TV World.............

Cancel Desperate Housewives.
Get rid of Fox News.
Play more variety on Nick At Nite and TVLand.
Tone down some of the swearing and bed-hopping on TV.
Play music videos on MTV instead of that reality show trash.
Remove Comedy Central.
Get rid of all the late night TV shows. (Examples: David Letterman, Jay Leno, Conan OBrien. I cant stand when people make cruel jokes about other people or other things.)
Have a channel that plays Unsolved Mysteries 24/7.
Add more variety to the LOGO network.
