I saw two classic 1st year episodes last night a 1:00am on WPIX in New york. They were the "Ernie the Eskimo" and the "Bernaise Barbara" episodes. Does anyone know was this just a one time thing or are the back on a regular basis?

It airs Sunday nights 1-2am.

Doesn't it also air on Saturday nights along with the Jeffersons and Welcome Bacjk Kotter, or did they stop doing that?

They stopped it.

I think a lot had to do with baseball, but I'm not sure.

Yah - that didn't last on Sat. nights for long at all. Made me made too cuz I'm going to scream if I see one more COPS repeat on Saturday nights. I liked tuning in for The Odd Couple and Taxi - it helped break up the posting on SO! :lol:

The thing that bugs me is that I was glad to see Welcome Back Kotter back on tv, and I forgot to watch about 90% of the time.

I love The Odd Couple and Taxi too, but I hadn't been hurting to see those lately (along with The Jeffersons).

Yah - same here - or I'd have to fight the hubby if PPV or HBO boxing was on!!! I was only able to catch the 1st ep of Welcome Back Kotter when N@N did their 20th anniversary thing a couple of weeks ago.

Nothing is "back" -- The Odd Couple has been airing Sunday nights for a while now. Odd Couple, not The Jeffersons.

Those are two of my favorite Odd Couple episodes.

Felix singing his "Oscar" song is very funny:

Once there was a man named Oscar
(Oscar, Oscar, Oscar)
And he turned on his best friend
(Oscar, Oscar, Oscar)
(Oscar, Oscar, Oscar, Oscar, Oscar)
(Oscar, Oscar, Oscar, Oscar, Oscar)

The friend put a curse on Oscar's head
(Oscar, Oscar, Oscar)
The gods came down and struck Oscar dead
(Oscar, Oscar, Oscar)
(Oscar, Oscar, Oscar, Oscar, Oscar)
(Oscar, Oscar, Oscar, Oscar, Oscar)

Once there was a man named Jesse
(Jesse, Jesse, Jesse)
He wore his clothes very messy
(Messy Messy Jesse)
(Jesse, Jesse, Messy Messy Jesse)
(Jesse, Jesse, Messy Messy Jesse)
