I WOULD LOVE TO SEE IT AGAIN, because Fred Sanford is funny, but, I never heard anything, whatsoever, about it coming back, since it went off last fall

I'am sorry to say that TV land won't be showing Sanford and Son anymore. They signed a contract to show it for a certain amount of years, and time is up. It's the same thing with Happy Days and Newhart.

They have to pay to sign these contracts! They spent like 3 million dollars to put on Three's Company for 7 years! I mean it costs them a fourtune to keep these shows running.

Three's Company is 25 million for 7 years...that's nothing, Cheers was bought for 75 million!

Those 2 are the highest in N@N.

I think that Sanford and Son should be on TNN or something.

Tons of shows should be on TNN if N@N/TVL has dropped them and they still have rights.
Perfect Strangers, Head of the Class, ALF, 227, Silver Spoons all fit since TNN is looking for 80's and 90's shows.

I don't think they even have Sanford anymore.

Keep e-mailing and snail mailing TV Land...after all, they did end up renewing the contract for Leave it to Beaver after it expired.

I saw an ad on ch 65 in Richmond saying that SANFORD & SON will be on ch 65 at 11 pm in 10 weeks or was it days. Anyway it will be good to see the show again! http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif

Sanford and Son does air in the Chicago area on WPWR-TV, channel 50 at 1:00am. That station has dropped it and brought it back plenty of times and keeps doing so.....and that is a local station.

Sanford & Son also airs on WKFT-TV Channel 40 in the Raleigh/Durham, NC area at 5:30PM weekdays. It's been on for the last few months.
