Does anybody know why Nick at Nite doesn't air the continuation of All in the Family?
I think Archie Bunker's Place should not be neglected or overlooked. It was rated in the top 20 for the first 3 seasons it ran (1979-1982). I also do not understand why WPSG in Philladelphia took it off the air.
Is there anyone I can contact and suggest that NAN show the "Edith's Death" episdode??

Thanks,
Steve

Nick has plenty of room to air Archie Bunker's Place immediately following All In The Family, but for some reason, Nick-At-Nite feels that they should be adding shows in their line-up like Cheers, Family Ties, and Cobsy Show, which they are during the 2001-2002 season. I don't understand why they are now airing these shows. They are still newer shows. They should wait at least another five years or so to air these. Archie Bunker's Place is an older show that is rarely seen. Nick used to air these type of shows, but now money hungry channel has opted for branded name sitcoms that are constantly seen in syndication. Gees, Cheers and Cosby Show are on other channels all the time. If Nick plans on airing 90's shows on Nick, then bring the classic old hits of the 60's-80's to Nick 2. If we are lucky, maybe TNN, which will bring more older sitcoms to their line-up in the fall will purchased rights to ABP and air it on TNN! We can only keep wishing!
