like these are movies no one has seen in ages...as if TVLand is showing us something good here???? This Friday they will show TOP GUN...WTF?????? Pleeeeeeeeeeeeze...do we need to see this movie on TVLand???? I don't get what it is TVLand is thinking...:rolleyes:

Non classics, Comedy Central airs the same movies. Why not Friday Night Reunion Movies.

why bother at all???? stupid TVLand.

I think they moved it down an hour. I think last Friday it was on at ten and the week before Big Adventre was on at 8 or 9.

i was going to say something about this too the movie idea isin bad per se but its stupid to show movies that have been run to death on every other cable channel

It's stupid to run theatrical movies. This channel is supposed to be tv land...at least show some classic tv movies. :rolleyes:

The idea was stupid with WTBS and Prime TV. Nobody watched them.

What's next? American Graffiti? How about Dumb and Dumber? That movie should fit perfect with their classic Friday night movie.

I absolutely agree, it is laughable that they are showing movies. I wish there was a way to complain.

The movies aren't as ******** as those fools that start dancing all over the place. Yuck!

It's stupid to run theatrical movies. This channel is supposed to be tv land...at least show some classic tv movies. :rolleyes:
That would be awesome. Some 70's movies that haven't been seen since, etc. That is a good idea. I want to complain. I too hate those stupid people in that commercial.

Just working their way toward the motto:

"We will go to any lengths to AVOID showing classic or long lost television."

who the hell wants to watch a movie on TV LAND???-lol

who the hell wants to watch a movie on TV LAND???-lol

Hopefully nobody

Hopefully nobody

:brent

It's so stupid... who cares?

And what's up with those creepy hosts Torbin and Dagmar?

who the hell wants to watch a movie on TV LAND???-lol
exactly my point.

I like movies but any real movie fan has lots of movie channels plus they can get the DVDS and they're all uncut. Who wants to watch a butchered movie anyway?

And what's up with those creepy hosts Torbin and Dagmar?

OH GOSH!!! I'm glad I'm not the only one who finds them creepy! :eek: :eek:

Everytime the Pee Wee Herman preview came on, and they sang that damn song, I had to change the channel!

Check THIS out on YouTube....does this ring a bell??

It sounds like there's laziness up at the TVLand area.

I saw the Top gun commercial. If I want to see movies I'll just go watch one of the 100's available on cable. TV land should be for Classic TV episodes. Nothing more.

How about The Patty duke show, Chico and the man or all the other older shows. Why can't they put on Laugh In or Sonny and Cher? There's a dummy at TVLand who's at the top.

I would prefer they show some rarely seen movies-of the-week from the 70s and early 80s.

Watching Good Times yesterday, I saw a snippet of TOP GUN being played at the bottom of the screen with a reminder that TOP GUN ON FRIDAY AT TEN. BIG F****** DEAL!!!!!! Now TVLand is going to annoy us thru our fave shows with that stupid crap at the bottom of the screen????

i seriously think tv land and N @ N are on drugs. this was a very stupid idea.
n @ n is worse i think because they showed kangroo jack again. i mean if n @ n is gonna do this movie idea at least show different movies. :mad: whoops why am i saying that n @ n doesent know jack about variety!

I would love to see all those shows. It never fails. Whenever a good cable network comes along, eventually it sells out and starts airing garbage.

does anyone know what the ratings are for it hopefully if they're really bad they'll stop airing movies but if they insist on doing so why not air movies about classic TV Shows or at least something to do with classic TV shows

Lucy And Desi Before The Laughter

I don't know what's up with their programming lately. And they pick dumb movies to air, Who in the hell would watch Pee Wee Herman?:lol:

With so many people waiting for so many classic shows that they love to get a chance on TV Land, they go ahead and slap us in the face showing us re-run to death movies that air on every other channel.

This is probably the most insulting thing they've ever done.

That is a great way of putting it. Who the hell (like Brie said) wants to watch Pee Wee Herman? Who wants to see Top Gun for the billionth time??? I sure don't. That time could be used to either push Gunsmoke, Bonanza in those slot times and bring on something we haven't seen in a while. I think it's time we inundate TVLand's email with some HATE MAIL.

My Internet Receiever is no longer compatible wth Tvland.com. If that happens with SitcomsOnline I will cancel MSNTV and subscribe to Comcast High Speed Internet on my LapTop

I thought my channels were messed up when Tom Cruise's movie was on TV Land. I started checking other channels to make sure they were working okay.

I hate it. This isn't going to be a regular thing, is it?

Instead of showing movies, TVLand should show the classic 12-hour Emmy winning 1977 miniseries "Roots" and its sequel, the classic 14-hour 1979 miniseries "Roots: The Next Generation". Both were great classic miniseries and I believe TVLand is the appropriate channel to air them since its TV related. I also believe that if TVLand airs "Roots" and "Roots: The Next Generation", TVLand would have great ratings on the nights they air it and when they repeat it on their schedule after they air it for the first time.

I thought this was supposed to be tvland and not movieland. And the movies they picked-come on Pee Wee Herman? Give us viewers a break!! And Nick at nite is becoming the Fresh Prince channel. I don't mind it but not all the time!! The answer to the question what are they thinking? They are not thinking. I think they should change the name to Idiotland. I think another channel could really steal some viewers away if they had the right shows. Let's hope someone has some guts and takes some chances. What I want to know is who is still watching tvland anyway? The other night I was watching Leave it to Beaver and they cut off part of the show for end credits-I was so disgusted!! Tvland=garbage

I liked when they did the made-for TV movies last summer, but this is just stupid! I can watch movies on any other channel! I come to TV Land to watch TV Classics!!!

I don't mind the others, but "Peewee's Big Adventure" was the most idiotic move that network has made. Who would want that nut on their TV?

I agree with all that's been said. I don't think there's been a positive comment about in this thread. LOL. I think I might email TVLand--but I don't think they really care what their viewers want to see, so it probably wouldn't make a difference. It would be great if they aired something like "Return to Mayberry," etc...movies that are classic TV-related. But they're airing movies that have nothing to do with classic TV and they're showing stuff like Peewee's Big Adventure?? Those hosts creep me out, too! :eek:

For some reason, all of the channels I used to love (TVLand, GSN, etc) are now airing junk...argh.

The Fresh Prince Channel :rofl: I love that description. It's so damn true!!! I hate FP...it was one thing watching it when it first came on back in the days, but now...gimme a break.

N@N is a much better network than TV LAND

N@N is a much better network than TV LAND
Hell yeah!!!! They got Roseanne...I love Roseanne marathons! However, I will have to say TVLand gets my vote once THE JEFFERSONS start!

First off, I find that Dagmar and whatshisname, are just totally creepy. Their sugary smiles are nauseating.

I no longer watch Nick at Nite, what happened there? It's the same old 80's and 90's crap, day after day, for hours and hours, amen.

Also, what is going on with TVLand? What ever happened to showing CLASSIC TV?

Why can't there be more of the older stuff, the CLASSIC stuff? Having "Three's Company" on all the time is really getting OLD. Same thing with Sanford and Son and some of the others. What's wrong with some of the great stuff from the 50's? How about some Alfred Hitchcock Presents, Adventures of Superman, etc? How about showing Gomer Pyle, USMC again?

Well? Is anyone listening out there in TVLand?

THANK YOU! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Not to mention those fake accents! :lol:

Hoosiers is a great movie, but why would anyone watch it on TV Land (or AMC, for that matter)?

I'm really not sure what TVLand is trying to do with those two. Are they supposed to look like they are on a space ship, or something? If so, I'll hire NASA and pay whatever it costs to send them back to wherever they came from.

Oh, GOODY! Next Friday, they will be showing "Grease". Wowie, zowie.

Is there anyone that LIKES Dagmar and Goofball? (Can't think of his phoney name). What would be wrong with showing some of the older black and white shows on Friday night? Sure, some of them were really cornball, but they were great for the time. We were in 1950's/1960's, the cold war was raging, kids had Civil Defense Drills, we needed something silly to make us laugh. The Honeymooner's, My Little Margie, Ozzie and Harriet, the list is endless.

Even more fun, would be for TVLand to have Friday night be a "Cartoon Night". Now there are some really classic cartoons that could be shown. Some that could not be shown again, many of them were not politically correct, but were allowable back then, as that was the norm.

I could go on and on, but I think I'll enjoy being a newbie to this site and checking out what everyone has to say.

Welcome to Sitcoms Online. :wave:

Thanks! Happy to be here! :)

I'd have no problem with TVLAND showing tv movies or miniseries, but theatrical releases, wtf? Oh well I don't really care, I never watch TVLAND anyway unless The Brady Bunch is on.

why can't they do what N@N used to do, YEARS ago in the late 80s, and show OLD comedy movies from the 30s and 40s late at night? (remember, they used to call it "THE NICK AT NITE MOVIE") in stead of showing edited, pan-and-scan (that means not in wide screen ), movies that have been on the other cable channels a billion times already?

Maybe I'm in the minority, but I LOVE that blonde girl... Dagmar ! I think both of them are kind of funny. I don't watch the movies, but I like those commercials! They aren't creepy, they are sooooo cheeesy, that they crack me up!

The point is everyone is making is TV LAND is not a channel for movies

I couldn't agree more with all of the posts I read(except for the one that actually like thoes two hosts).As I have ranted,I have no problems with movies being showned on N@N (N@N) T.V.Land as long as it would have been made for T.V. movies like they did last year.I for one can't figure out why in the holy :cuss: they think anyone with a sound mind want to see the billionth showing of Top Gun,Pee-Wee Big Adventure, or even Greese&Hooser.These are movies that not even being shown on AMC because even they know people are tried of these movies.Plus all of the classics are being made way for the originals shows that they also been running into the ground;like Living In T.V. Land,T.V. Land Confidential,Chasing Farrah and other farces.Now,they want to put on original T.V. sitcoms;should that be the purpose of this channel?!?NOOOOOO!But they do in in the name of ratings,and to aim toward the 18-24 year old whom grew up on Jackass and Fear Factor(with them liking such stuff),so that why we have all of these problems.That why we can't get classics anymore!Whomever is running this channel should receive the following::nonono: :thumbsdow :smash: :whip :yousuck: :mooner: ohno: :stooges:

Dagmar and Tigmoar (whatever his name is) have to be the most stupidest and annoying people on Earth. Are they people? Or, did they crashed from another planet? If they did, I would be very happy to pay money to send these two back to where they are from :lol: I think they aren't from Earth since you don't see normal people acting like that over a movie. And they make me sick with their fake accents, stupid disco dances, and trying to be funny that I have to turn the channel, or end up throwing my book right at the TV when they come on. I mean, no one wants to watch movies that have been on other stations since the late 90s.
Grease? I saw that movie in high school and I didn't like it.

"And what's up with those creepy hosts Torbin and Dagmar?"

Who the hell knows? What the hell target audience are they going for with that lameness? TVLand has become one of the most dissapointing networks on television...Nickelodeon's Nick at Nite being the single most dissapointing! What are these morons thinking? The aforementioned networks built their fan base off of discriminating legions of television viewers that wished to view programming that differed from your average, modern and very boring shows...The shows that have and are creeping into the schedules of these networks were shows we, the bulk of the fan base, had little or no interest tuning in to the first time around, hence leading us to their networks...and now they sell out and have become Turner channel clones showing crap that led the audience away from network television those many years ago when the Nick networks were building a fan base? What the hell happened? Did daddy or mommy network owner die and leave the companies to idiot offspring? I just don't understand companies that turn their backs on the very people that made them famous. BRING BACK THE SHOWS WE THE VIEWING PUBLIC WANT TO SEE...OR WATCH YOUR NETWORK'S RATINGS PLUMMET FASTER THAN ROSEANNE FALLING OFF A BED WHILE REACHING FOR A BUCKET OF KFC...BRING BACK:

LAUGH-IN
LANCELOT LINK
THE MONKEES
DOBIE GILLIS
MY THREE SONS
DONNA REED
DENNIS THE MENACE
SCTV
FERNWOOD 2 NITE
LASSIE
AND THE REST OF THE CLASSICS YOU BUILT YOUR COMPANY ON...or be permanantly labelled the "Roseanne" network...Nick at Nite is garbage lately...Why even bother with the shows they show...you can find ALL of them elsewhere...That's what used to make the Nick networks cool...The shows they used to show were not found ANYWHERE else...Look, I know these old shows rights cost a little bit more than what you gus are probabyl paying Turner, but it takes money to make money, so quit being so damn cheap nd get the real shows back on and crap can the 80s-90s garbage..

Thanks

I am stunned!

Just when I thought that TVLand couldn't sink any lower, now they are bringing back the Cosby Show! Puh-leeeeeze! Nothing against Cosby, but classic TV????????????? This is like living the 80's all over again! Whatever happened to CLASSIC TV? Not only that, but TVLand has taken "I Love Lucy" off the daytime sched and it is only on at 5 AM now! Lucy and Ricky are headed for Hollywood, and in order to catch that great series, one has to be awake BEFORE the chickens!

Benson is classic? Oh, help me! I think that if I have to sit through another episode of "Three's Company" that I just might commit hari kari.

:(

I just want to say that there is one TV LAND Movie I plan to watch this Friday, that's "GREASE". I never seen it so I will actually be watching a TV LAND movie this friday

OMG, that movie has been played a bajillion times on tv and you have NEVER SEEN IT???? How is that?

OMG, that movie has been played a bajillion times on tv and you have NEVER SEEN IT???? How is that?


I know-lol I guess it was never on at the right Time

I think I'm in love with Dagmar? What's wrong with me? I usually agree with most of the posters on this board, but when those Torbin and Dagmar commercials come on....I just have to watch! She is soooooo cute ! I love the fake accent.....I can't get enough of her!!!!!!!

I know-lol I guess it was never on at the right Time
I seen that movie six times at the theatre and God knows how many times on television. My daughter bought me the DVD two years ago and I haven't watched it. :lol:

I wish TV LAND would bring back "Cheers" so I'd have a reason to watch the channel again.

I heard they have the rights until 2011. I hope they still do and they've just taken it off temperarily, like they did with TC.

And what's up with those creepy hosts Torbin and Dagmar?
They do grate on me some what. No offense to the actors but I can't get used ? swedish or are they dutch accents.

They do grate on me some what. No offense to the actors but I can't get used ? swedish or are they dutch accents.
You got me. But what is the point? TVland isn't dutch or swedish. And the UFO thingy mixed with disco stuff...I seriously think the TVland people are on crack, just like Whitney.

Is there any other channels that run the shows tvland used to run all the time? When their not repeating their damn movies yet again. I am getting sick of their movies, it was called Friday Night Movies... but yeah here it is Saturday and their playing movies. Wtf is Gunsmoke, or Bonanza, etc that they usally play. This is getting sad i'm thinking of pulling out my Andy Griffith Show dvds etc to put in.

Nick @ Nite is a total joke. It USED to be good when it showed the true classics. Now it is just the same old, non-classic TV.

And then there is TVLand. When did "Designing Women" become a classic? And this new show that they are starting in January, "Just Shoot Me"??? I have NEVER heard of the show, how can it be classic?

Bring back the TRUE classics. Also, what is with these idiotic movies? They take up so much of the weeks' schedule and are hardly classic movies. How about showing some Abbott and Costello? Laurel and Hardy? How about a few old Lucy movies?

I wonder if there is something like a "nostalgia" channel out there in T V Land? Notice I did not say "TVLand".

Is anyone listening?

Another thing... WHY show these movies and edit them so much? The "Blues Brothers" was edited so much, that it didn't make much sense at all. I know there is a time issue, but for the love of Pete, don't hack them so much!

and why the hell are they showing movies in the first place???

now, they're starting to show "JUST SHOOT ME" next month! MY GOD; that just started on NBC 10 years ago! That's not a classic! And they're gonna start showing "FRIENDS" in 2011!! What's next for them, reruns of "SIENFELD"????:mad: :mad:
