I agree, I don't think that Nick at Nite should touch shows that fit or are already on TV Land, I also think that All in the Family and Three's Company don't deserved to be aired in the early hours of the morning when they can have a comfortable and snug spot on TV Land.

Cosby Show
Cheers
Wings
Any other shows deserve to be on better stations because they'd probably get better timeslots.

Cosby has a pretty good slot..and they get treated pretty good...Cheers get's kicked around a lot..and poor wings didn't even get a chance..I wish it was on a different station too.

Wings
Cheers
Those are about the only shows on the lineup that I like.Well "Three's Company" but that shouldn't be on N@N.

Lessee...
Perfect Strangers
Head of the Class
Roseanne (later this year)
...that's it.
Everything else was overplayed on TBS years ago.
Now, if N@N felt like bringing back some shows they gave short shrift to years ago, like Facts of Life, ALF, Diff'rent Strokes, and Welcome Back, Kotter, I wouldn't be opposed to that.
Unfortunately Nick at Nite, which used to be "The Home of Classic TV", is now "The Home of Cosby and Cosby related television".

Okay, I'll give ya that.
However, Roseanne has a bit more... bite... than the family friendly pap like Cosby or Full House that is currently on the Nick at Nite primetime schedule.
I mean, we've all heard about the Three's Company John Ritter testicle scandal, haven't we?
Nick at Nite has headed downhill, especially considering they were playing ATIF and Three's Company before 10 PM just a couple years back.

Step by Step, Family Matters, Sister, Sister; Smart Guy, Blossom, and Cooper are NOT Nick@Nite material yet. They are too new. The rest on that list is, especially Silver Spoons and Perfect Strangers. They need to also air ALF, Mr. Belvedere, Small Wonder, Out of this World (weekends or something), Punky Brewster, and an adultish sitcom--Night Court. Night Court works more and fits more than Wings or Coach. Those two came way too early.

Yeah, now they are focusing on the 80's more. Three's Company still fits a bit, but not All in the Family. Both of these shows are and always did well for them.

:) Small Wonder........N@N should very well air that and all of the other classic 80's sitcoms!!! :eek: :D

Out off this World (didn't know anyone remembered that existed), Mr. Belvedere, and Night Court... those are three I haven't seen in a long time, but would like to.
what should stay? Hmm....
Perfect Strangers
Head of the Class
Family Ties
----
Ditto Cheers staying, but give it a rest (about 3-6 months) first.
I have no problem with Who's the Boss when it comes next year.
I wouldn't mind seeing Wings and Coach staying too, but hold them off for a year or 2 (maybe air them on another Viacom-owned channel til then).
Cosby, Roseanne, Full House, need to go back to TBS/WGN
Three's Company & All in the Family? 2 Words: TV Land
Kids Say: Personally, I'd be happy just to see this show was destroyed
LucyFan

Hmm...
DROP: Coach, The Cosby Show, Kids Say, Wings, Three's Company, All in the Family
KEEP: Cheers, Family Ties, Perfect Strangers, Head of the Class
ADD: Mr. Belvedere, Benson, Soap, One Day at a Time (which might be better on TVL), Alf, Alice, NIGHT COURT, Diff'rent Strokes, Facts of Life, etc. (the list goes on and on)
My Thoughts?
DROP: Coach, although nice, belongs on Spike TV, or TBS. The Cosby Show, yes, it's prime 80s material, but wait until TBS drops it completely, at least. Kids Say, burn it. Wings, I like it, and am glad it's on, but N@N is the wrong channel for it. Give it to Spike TV, or Comedy Central. Three's Company and AITF don't belong on N@N anymore. Toss them over to TV Land. Roseanne, although "edgy" like AITF (I know, not a good comparison, sorry!), should stick to TBS and Oxygen. Too soon for N@N, imo.
KEEP: Cheers (from what I remember, has never had a true cable home, right?) should stay, just give it a little rest. Family Ties is perfect for the network, as well as Perfect Strangers and Head of The Class because those are prime 80s/90s that fit perfectly. Full House can stay, I guess. It's perfect material, although too new, IMO, because it's family friendly, it's like the 90s Brady Bunch, but IMO, Full House would be better on ABC Family. Who's the Boss? will fit in perfectly when it comes.
I guess I remembered every show.
ADD: Hmm. So many 80s shows that were overlooked. Such a shame. We really need an all 80s TV Land.

Drop: All in the Family, Coach, The Cosby Show, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Kids Say The Dardest Things, Roseanne, Three's Company, Wings

DROP: The Cosby Show, Cheers, Three's Company, Wings, All in the Family, Coach, Perfect Stangers, Head of the Class, Family Ties and Kids Say the Darndest Things. Also drop the upcoming Roseanne, Fresh Prince, Who's the Boss? and Full House.
KEEP: Nothing.
ADD: Car 54, Where Are You?, The Donna Reed Show, My Three Sons, The Patty Duke Show, The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis, Make Room for Daddy, Mister Ed, The Addams Family, The Munsters, The Life of Riley and Dennis the Menace.
Turn USA into the network for Modern TV Classics, where everything currently on N@N would move to USA. Turn N@N back to the classics. And TV Land could be shows of th 70's and 80's.

You seriously need to run both channels, Pav. I like your schedule. It's got variety. No, I don't like every show you put on the schedule, but I'm cool with that. It'd be kind of insane if I loved every show you picked.
But the one thing your schedule has is variety.
I can't tell you how disgusted I get with TVL for airing certain shows so many times. I'm flipping the channel and come to TVL and I just groan because I seem to hit on the same crap that I came across earlier.

I do agree that Wings is probably too recent for N@N, but it's one of my favorites and I'll watch it on any station it airs. Heck, put it on LifeTime or MTV (my two least favorite networks) and i'll watch! :D
