For the past few weeks Hallmark Channel had on their web site that the color episode of The Honeymooners will start airing tonight ( October 6 th ) . Now they have removed it from their site and have something else airing in it's place. Anyone know why the change ?

TV Guy posted this last night:

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Aaron Barnhart's TV Barn (www.tvbarn.com) is reporting today that a Hallmark spokeswoman told him today that plans to air these episodes, which were going to start this weekend, have been "shelved indefinitely".
I wonder what happened. My guess is that there were royalties issues (some former cast member or relative of a former cast member turned up and demanded residual payments).
