Channels

[Sean Snow]

Which channels do you watch most of your sitcoms on?

Oddyessy (ALF, My Three Sons, Happy Days)
UPN (Benson, The Jeffersons, Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie, I Love Lucy)
TV Land
TNN

[twinkle44301]

I'd say I watch most of my shows on TV Land. When TNN first introduced its great new line-up, I was there everyday. But since TNN has been running that black line with the name of the show airing, along the bottom of the screen, I have dropped TNN like a lead balloon. I don't care how much I love The Wonder Years, I am not going to watch TNN.

[Pavan]

Nick at Nite!
Three's Company, All in the Family, Diff'rent Strokes, Jeffersons, Gilligan's Isle, Brady Bunch, and Facts of Life.

Ps: this is to the first reply for this message board(twinkle44301)why would you quit watching a network cause of that black bar at the bottem. Thats wierd. I dont mind it.

[twinkle44301]

Drew...I don't watch TNN because I find the black bar distracting. Simple as that. If it doesn't bother you, that's cool, but it does me. I find it pathetic that these stations find it necessary to plaster all this garbage all over the shows.

For instance: Last night I watched(or tried to watch, I should say) The Andy Griffith show on Nick-at-Nite. Every few minutes or so they would plaster the screen with this annoying garbage about something one of the characters did or said.

I have noticed that TNN, TV Land & Nick at Nite's addresses are the same. I guess they must be owned by the same people.

I like my tv viewing to be garbage free. I hate when they plaster junk on the bottom, top, and sides. I hate when they scrunch the credits up at the end also. And since I am the consumer, and I buy the products that their advertisers are selling, I carry a lot of weight. What's next with these stupid stations? God only knows. You give them an inch and they take a mile. So that is why I refuse to watch. I also have notified some of their sponsors that I won't buy their products.

Of course this is just my personal opinion, however, I have noticed many other people who have posted similar views. I guess each to his own...

[Drew]

Twinkle, I guess it is a matter of personal opinion. I happen to like those pop up things on N@N. Thats why its called the unrealathon. It points out certain things in a show and gives u facts. It doesnt take that much time to read and doesnt stay on long, just dont look at it if you dont like it. What is there to see anyway. I could watch a tv show without tv, it radio with a screen. And its not like we havent all seen these episodes before so we know whats happening. I can focus on one or more things, maybe others cant, hmmm.

[twinkle44301]

Drew...I really take offense to you calling me weird, and insinuate that I should just "ignore" what I don't like(or that I am some sort of a moron if I can't do so). I merely stated that I do not watch those channels for that reason.

You are entitled to your opinion, just as I am. I didn't call you names, now did I?

[Drew]

Twinkle~Now you are putting words in my mouth or rather in my message, lol. I never said that u are anyone was weird or a moron and never meant for those things to be offensive or rude. Remember its just an opinion.

What channel is this?Is it a digital channel?If so what Digital Cable is it?What other shows they show on there?(I'm a guy but I love Rhoda!)

[twinkle44301]

Drew...You need to re-read your posts. I posted my opinion, and you chose to post yours. The problem is, instead of just stating how you felt, you chose to act as though something was strange about me not being able to see past the black line(and your exact quote was..."That's weird.") and something some other remark in your second post(about you being able to focus on more than one thing...and I guess you don't think I can). In the future, how about stating an opinion without taking pot-shots at others? FWIW, there are lots of shots I could lob your direction about your posts, but being an adult, I won't do that...

It just looked like he was curious why you would let the bar stop you from watching. That's all. No need to get so defensive. http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif

[Drew]

Jules, thank you. Thats what ive been trying to say. All i want to say is why would let some black line stop you from watching a show or network. Dont take is so defensively. And a little critism never hurts. We all need it and get it. But im not implying anything, now calling anyone a name on purpose, im not saying anything, im jsut getting my point out. k, so pls just chill out. thanks much,

[Drew]

JT~~WTN I dont get yet. I recently found out about this network and its show. And i thought it was new. But now i have even just recenlty found out its a candian network. But i have watched it once. I dont remember how i got it, but i remember watching it once.

I am going to say this one more time: I MADE A SIMPLE COMMENT ABOUT SOMETHING I DON'T LIKE...I DIDN'T KNOCK ANYONE ELSE, I JUST SAID I DIDN'T LIKE SOMETHING THAT WAS HAPPENING ON SOME STATIONS.

ANOTHER POSTER SAID IT DIDN'T BOTHER HIM/HER. FINE. BUT INSTEAD OF JUST SAYING THAT, THE POSTER SAID TO ME...."THAT'S WEIRD"(about me not liking the black bar) AND "I CAN FOCUS ON ONE OR MORE THINGS, MAYBE OTHERS CAN'T...hmmmmm" (WHICH WAS DIRECTED TO ME ONCE AGAIN, AS THOUGH I AM SOME SORT OF AN IDIOT BECAUSE I DON'T LIKE THIS).

In my opnion, anyone who can sit with that stuff running across the TV screen and find it enjoyable has a screw loose, and probably has an IQ the size of my shoe. I should have said that in the beginning, but I really hate to stoop that low. Ah, but don't take it personal, you did the same thing and expected my to just accept your comments. Now don't go getting YOUR panties in a wad! Oh well... ta ta

[mrkoontz]

mY UPN station I get Differant Strokes, I dream of Jeannie, Bewitched, All in The Family, The Jeffersons, 227, Good Times, Friends, Simpsons, Frasier, Fresh Prince, and Spin City.

[Drew]

THATS IT. Listen up Twinkle toes. I never directed ANY COMMENT to ANYONE Specific. You are taking this hole ordeal out of hand. I just made my COMMENT. And someone who cant take critism or realize that its just a comment and not towards anyone specific MUSt have a brain the size of a show. SO LISTEN UP. I am not going to keep repeating myself. ITS A COMMENT. I am sorry if you find it offense. It wasnt my intention. I keep trying to say sorry but u are knocking it right of the desk. Cut it out and SHUT UP. ALRIGHT. Get alittle bit of brains a start realizing things. Thats LIFE. ALright. NOw im sorry and shut up. >:
