The entire 9am hour on BET this morning was just WEIRD, because not onlt did BET air the Pilot again, the episode they aired at 9:30am is nowhere to be found on the Internet. The episode involved the oldest brother working as a saesman and that episode is not on tv.com or imdb.com


I was expecting eps 2 and 3 this mornin, not the ep BET aired last week and a unknown episode #

This was listed on the BET Press listings
9:00am #2 "Death of a Salesman"
9:30am #3 "Dirty Laundry"

So, it looks like they aired #1 Pilot and #2 Death of a Salesman, going by your description (I taped it too, but watching Sanford right now).

You should record 3am and 12pm. I'm guessing they will air Death of a Salesman at 3am and Dirty Laundry at 12pm.

Where is "Death of a Salesman" listed? I did notice that the pilot of thea was EXTENDED this week. The beginning was different

Death of a Salesman is not listed on IMDB or TV.com

BET is going in PRODUCTION order and Death of a Salesman was the second episode produced but it was never aired.

So eaxctly how many eps of Thea was produced???

22 episodes were produced. 19 aired, so three were unaired.

Ok because only 18 was listed

I recorded the 3am episode, but haven't watched thus yet. Watching 12pm now and it is the pilot again for some reason. Very strange because BET's press listings do not say that at all. It should be #3 Dirty Laundry with #2 Death of a Salesman at 3am. I hope #2 aired at 3am.

Hey Solomon, wouldn't you say the youngest boy's haircut on Thea was kind of F*ucked up?! LOL I was watching the 12pm episode, and I was cracking up when I saw his hair on the opening credits! :lol:

Are you telling me the 3am ep was different than the 9am and 9:30am ep? If so I need to know from you WHAT EPSso I be watching or recording each week?

LOL-isn't that you-"KOOL?

You should post there more....especially on the Soapbox. We have fun on there.

Well, I didn't watch 3am yet. I don't know what happened with BET this weekend. They had slated #2 and #3 for 9-10am Sat and #2 at 3am and #3 at 12pm Sun. But instead we got #1 and #2 9-10am Sat, and #1 Sun at 12pm, so I'm assuming #2 aired at 3am...so no nothing new I'd guess since you saw #2 at 9:30am on Saturday.

Just checked my recording...the 3am episode was the pilot once again.

So, if this pattern continues next week it should be like this:
Sat
9:00am #2 Death of a Salesman
9:30am #3 Dirty Laundry
Sun
3:00am #2 Death of a Salesman
12:00pm #2 Death of a Salesman

I hope I'm wrong and they show two a week like originally planned. I'll keep you all posted on what BET lists.

For this saturday BET has these listings

9am-"Dirty laundry"
9:30am-"Jerome makes the Grade"
3am-NO EPISODE
12pm-Jerome Makes the Grade

Yes, that is what BET sent out. Let's see what airs. I for some reason think #2 (Death of a Salesman) will air at 9am instead.

No Sanford and Thea this Saturday night at 2:30am and 3am due to some special. But they will air Sunday afternoon.

22 episodes were produced. 19 aired, so three were unaired.

I never knew that. You would think that BET would highlight that heavily as TVOne does with some of their one hit wonder shows like Wanda and Cedric the Entertainer presents. Do you have any info on when those unaired episodes were supposed to air on ABC?

BET aired episodes 3 and 4 today from 9-10am.

Episode 3 "Dirty Laundry"
Episode 4 "Jerome Makes the Grade"

I wish they would air episode 2 again, "Death of a Salesman," since it never repeated last week.

yeah got all so far, eps 1 to 4 and waiting for 5 and 6

Watching the Sunday 12pm episode, and it seems to be #5 "Danesha Loooves Leonard"
When Danesha's romance with Leonard disrupts the household, Jarvis and Jerome hatch a plan to split up the lovebirds.

It was supposed to be a repeat of #4, hmmm. #5 and #6 are scheduled for next Saturday 9-10am though.

Yeah I'm taping it now. I need new copies of episodes 3 and 4 because there was a technical problem with Comcast and the picture kept popping. so maybe we can do a trade pav, 2 for 1

you get ep 2 from me and i get eps 3 and 4 from you

We'll see Solomon. I have 3 and 4 saved on my Comcast DVR. I didn't record 5, but I tuned in just to see what BET would air (I don't trust them). I'm sure 5 will air at 9am on Saturday.

No more confusion starting next week, because Thea will just be Saturdays 9-10am and Sanford Sundays 12-1pm...more info tomorrow on the blog.

I thought you said you didn't have episode 2?

Change of episodes for the weekend:

Saturday
9:00am #6 Here Comes Mr. Gordon
9:30am #7 How I Got Over

Looks like #5 Danesha Loooves Leonard will not repeat. It aired this past Sunday at 12 noon.

Well that works for me, that way I can get the series on TAPE much faster. So if BET keeps up at this pace i can have the series complete by June instead of September like i thought 4 weeks ago

Off-topic a bit, but just a heads-up, BET will start Season 3 of Diff'rent Strokes on Tuesday, March 25.

thanks I needed to know that, i was going to start recording once they got to the seasons not on DVD

Hey!
I was really hoping someone would help me! I just found out on Wednesday, March 19th of last week that Thea was airing on BET channel! I live in Canada, and just wondering if the programming is different then what is playing in the USA? On my starchoice online guide it told me 2 episodes would air on Saturday, March 22 at 9 am to 10 am. BUT, on my tv screen guide, it was BET NOW... and of course I tuned in at that time and it was BET NOW. So I came on here hoping to find some help.

Did anyone else watch THEA yesterday morning at 9am? I just found out that this show was playing the past few weeks but I missed them all, so I am going to watch BET all day today to see if they play it sometime hopefully at 12 noon which was the original time they said before.

I am very happy to read on here that others are taping this show already.. and was really hoping that if I still do not get to see the show over the next few weeks, if someone would be really kind to send me the episodes that you did record? I am a big fan of Jason Weaver, and would love to see all the episodes or which ever are played I would be happy just to see as many as possible!

Please let me know!

Of course I would pay for the tapes, and shipping costs to have them sent to me and your time! As I know this TV show is very unlikely to come out on DVD itself in the stores I didn't ever think they would play reruns on TV until now!!

Thank you!
Sarah

Man.. I'm so heated at myself! I forgot to record last Saturday's episodes. How long is this show going to stay on the air?? I hope they'll have this on for a couple of months so I can at least get every episode.. If anyone's interested.. I'm going to upload the eps I did record on my youtube page..

That would be appropriate for Mother's Day. I know I will be watching. I think they should save the Sanford marathon for Father's Day. It would be nice if BET picked up Grady and Sanford Arms to help the run last longer for the Sanford remake.

BET has announced some changes to Saturday mornings. Thea will be removed, for now...and Romeo! and Just Jordan will return and air 9-11am Saturday mornings ONLY starting Saturday, April 26.

Thea will still have its marathon on Mother's Day (May 11). We'll have more details soon. But hopefully Thea will return to the actual line-up soon. For more details, PLEASE read this before posting here:

The Mother's Day Thea episodes will leave off where they left off on the regular schedule:

I just have the episodes numbers which I think ended at #10

Thea is getting the same treatment that Whats Happening Now and 227 received from TVLand. Hype it up, then give it a bad timeslot and removal from the schedule.

And why couldn't BET give Thea the saturday slot that Diffrent Strokes now has? 12pm


I got so tired of waking up at 9am on saturday

Marathon is on now...a reminder.

A Reminder at 12:22pm???-lol


anyway atleast the ep airing now is not a NEW ONE. I thought all eps were going to be NEW?

The new eps don't start until 1:30pm

The new episodes that have not aired on BET start at 1pm, not 1:30pm. That is why I sent a reminder at 12:20. Plus I just got online. You probably would have forgotten if I didn't post and you'd be pissed.

They are airing the last 10 episodes of the series, and they only had eight new ones left to air. So how could all 10 be new Solomon?

My bad Pav, I remembered you saying that it will be new eps during the marathon and I thought it was the entire marathon. So that's why I was confused when you posted the reminder when the marathon already started. So thanks for the heads up because you are right I would have forgotten because until I got your reminder I was about to watch the SB on DVD that someone sent and would have had to beg u to get those eps.


BTW: that good stock ep was a new oneit just sounded familar from the description

Yeah, Good Stock never aired. It didn't have a (R) next to it.

overall after seeing all the eps, I just feel the show was too much like Roseanne and wasn't really a good show in IMO. The mother's role was too large instead of slightly bigger than the kids

Well, the show was titled, "Thea." But after watching a few episodes today, I think the Jerome character played by Jason Weaver, had too big of a role. Bigger than the his older siblings.

Yeah, certainly lots of Jerome. I guess they thought he was the one with potential and probably the best looking. He reminds me of the son on Sinbad's sitcom (I love that show).

yup, a black version of ro-ro-lol

Jarvis (Adam Jefferies) had potential, he just wasn't utilized on this show. He had more of a breakout role on "True Colors."

i still have 6 eps of that of sinbad someone sent me that i still need to watch

was that show before thea? 1992?

overall after seeing all the eps, I just feel the show was too much like Roseanne and wasn't really a good show in IMO. The mother's role was too large instead of slightly bigger than the kids

It seems like the producers couldn't decide if they wanted it to be family friendly or more adult oriented. If you notice within the episodes and storylines, they rotate (one episode storylines center around the kids, another one centers around Thea). I don't think this show was trying to be a black Roseanne. Roseanne dealt with more serious issues such as a struggling working family mixed in with comic relief. Thea really didn't have those moments.

I also think there was considerable pressure on the show given the timeslot. An 8pm show is expected to bring in the viewers for the night and I doubt Thea was that strong on the comedy circuit to pull something like that.

After seeing this show for the first time since 1993 & 1994.. It's crazy to see all of the guest stars from other shows that appeared on Thea. Like Michelle Thomas from Family Matters,Countess Vaughn from Moesha,Omar Gooding just to name a few & the mother from Jamie Foxx.

The show was centered around Thea and her kids, so most likely some episodes would be about Thea and some about her kids.

I don't think that Thea and Roseanne are anything a like. Both shows dealt with different issues and the kids weren't anything a like. The only thing that Thea and Roseanne had in common was that they were both hard working women.

Are they still showing this on BET? Because it didn't air last Saturday and I'm missing 2 episodes to complete my Thea DVD collection. I'm recording them off TV.

I don't think BET is airing the show anymore, they aired the remaining eps on Mother's Day and now I have all of them. Just let me know what eps you need and we can set somthing up

Thea was replaced on Saturday Mornings by the Parkers


my email is retrotv@msn.com

Solomon, did you see the rest of the episodes? What did you think of Thea in the restaurant business? Nice to see Cal (Dennis Burkley) from Sanford on the show.

I liked them...also liked the one with Myra from Family Matters.
