Hmm. GREAT question. I dunno, I think SO MANY programs are overlooked anymore, so many classic 80s programs have hardly seen the light of day in years. I think two new networks should be developed, a soap opera rerun channel (with only CLASSIC now cancelled soaps) and an 80s network (with only shows from 1979-1985). I have NO clue what I would put in those, but you've got a general idea. I doub we'll ever see those channels (sure, we've got SoapNet and TVLand/Goodlife/Hallmark) but no network (that I know of) focuses on just a certain "theme"

I'd have a network that is completely devoted to these shows:
I Dream of Jeannie
Days of Our Lives (the old ones and the new ones)
Bewitched
My Three Sons
Laugh-In
Dallas
The Dukes of Hazzard
I Love Lucy
The Dick Van Dyke Show
Match Game
Classic Hollywood Squares
and Celebrity Family Feud (the older ones and the new ones)

This is a nice mix I think, nobody shows Dallas, and The Dukes of Hazzard, or the old episodes of Days, you never know when Family Feud is going to have celebs on it, showing only the celebs would be a nice change I think. I'd also have the news about all of these shows everyday.

GSN used to have what they called "Celebrity Family Feud" at 10pm eastern where they showed celeb eps from the first Dawson era and the Combs era. But no more. :( I wanted to see the Crimefighters ones 'cause Kent McCord was on there. :(

My network would be the weirdest collection of 50s-70s comedies and dramas, plus 60s-80s game shows. It would take too long to get too specific right now.

Yeah, I'd love to see the Batman celebrity feud. I think they had one. Unfortunately, I don't get GSN. The only feud I get over here is the Louie version.

I forgot about the Beaver one. That's another one I'd like to see. Maybe one day I can get GSN.

I'd have a network dedicated to 90's sitcoms.

Another kind of networks I think there should be is:
80's sitcoms channel
70's sitcoms channel
60's sitcoms channel
50's sitcoms channel
talk show channel
current sitcoms channel
short lived sitcoms channel

I would have a station that will be filled with a variety of t.v. shows for adults as well as kids to enjoy. The more variety, the more viewers it will take in.

My network will have all kinds of different genres for viewers to choose from: sitcoms, talk shows, game shows, cartoons, ect.

The list of shows will be available shortly.

Hey! I think I finally got a good IM, it kicks me off a few times but at least its better than MSN was. Have you got MSN, AOL, or Yahoo? The one I downloaded tonight, I can get all those. My screen name is jenny16dalemidkiff@hotmail.com - I hope that one works. Let me know if it doesn't. My computer is about to freeze up on me, so I'm probably leaving for tonight. I'll be online tomorrow though. Thanks again for looking up the episode! :):wave:
