I was just reading the TV Land Canada website. Even though I don't get the channel, I do like the programs they offer, and I've noticed that they've come up with an idea which should be considered by other stations as an alternative to offering the same-old, same-old with regards to what they show and how often you get to see it.
What they're doing is simply rotating a group of shows and airing them every other month. In March of 2004, along with their regular group of shows that they've left unchanged, they've aired The Phil Silvers Show, The Odd Couple, Gomer Pyle, and Laverne and Shirley. For this month, those shows will be replaced in the rotation by My Three Sons, The Addams Family, the drama series The Millionaire, and Get Smart. Next month, the Odd Couple group will return while My Three Sons and its group will leave temporarily. I wonder if any US stations are doing something similar and, if not, do you think this is a good idea?
