Bummer. BOOO!! :mad:

The 6PM hour is becoming weaker and weaker for me. First 7th Heaven and Andy Griffith leave, now Reba. too bad Frasier didn't pick up better slots, I don't get how Still Standing does better than Frasier.

catlover79: Didn't you know Golden Girls was leaving? The only thing new here is what is replacing it.

:(

No more Lifetime for me...

For 7-11PM where it says Tuesday-Thursday, is something else planned for Friday nights? And Medium is up to two times a week now? (not that I would ever watch it)

That's a mistake, should be Tues-Fri...thanks catsrule. No, Medium moves to Fridays starting Jan. 23...no more Saturday nights.

I don't like The Golden Girls, but after 12 years of airing I thought Lifetime would give them a farewell marathon.

Reba at 1:00 that is a great move

I got The Blog Story for today.

I love all the Reba airings. I'll be watching in the morning while I get ready for school. I think 2 hrs straight at night (Tues-Fri) is better than before. Hate Still Standing and always hated that it was sandwiched in between one of my favorites.

Just picked up the season 5 dvd. Hope we see season 6 soon. I know my Target was selling out like crazy!

I'm actually watching it on Lifetime right now. :( I'm really going to miss it!!!
It was always a staple in my daily routine...hopefully the airings on WE and Hallmark will be fair and consistent!!!

This is what I am thinking The Golden Girl's will air from 4:00 pm until 5:00 pm CT Time and Hallmark Channel will Move M*A*S*H up an Hour from 5:00 pm until 7:00 pm CT Time.

I don't have cable - but I know that GG has run on Lifetime for over a decade. Does anyone really want to watch Wife Swap instead?? I know I wouldn't.

Well you can always get all 7 season's of The Golden Girl's on DVD.

That's right - by and large a very good thing. :cool:

I know!!! And do they really need to air it two hours a day, back to back, five days a week!? puke:

My sentiments exactly. :mad:

Lifetime used to be very good for sitcom fans, but it is slowly turning away from the good reliable ones. Heck, it was great for picking up shortlived shows and rerunning them into the ground :lol:

The Golden Girl's should air from 3:00 pm until 5:00 pm CT Time from Now until Feburary 28, 2009.

The bad news is that im not going to watch STILL STANDING in my backyard.. But the good new is that now ill be able to see STILL STANDING before I go to work.

I got this notice late Friday from Lifetime and will do a blog story this week...but here is the schedule in case someone doesn't get the story on time:

HIMYM and Will and Grace will def. do great back to back, as both go for more of the adult audience. I'll also be watching Reba at 1am when I go to bed!

I guess Will & Grace has replaced Reba as their highest rated comedy. :(

After about 3 or 4 years, I'm getting sick of the Still Stading reruns in the same way I'm getting sick of the weekend reruns of Grounded for Life on ABC Family. They were once good shows but there aren't enough episodes available to keep the reruns from getting stale. This is like back when USA Network ran short lived Something So Right, Boston Common and Ned and Stacey from 1998-2002. It got boring quick.

Lol..."Grounded" isn't even on TV anywhere anymore. It seldemly airs on ABC Family maybe once or twice (if lucky) every few months now! Reba ran 6 seasons though with a total of 125 episodes and I don't think it goes through its cycle that quick. I actually perfer it at 1am...that's when I'd have time to watch, lol:)

Just a heads up. Lifetime has picked-up a sitcom for air starting in May! We will announce the title on the blog this week, but see the end of today's blog for a little blurb on it:

And the sitcom is...http://www.sitcomsonline.com/blog/2009/04/abc-mid-season-pilot-review-surviving.html

that be good tom wopat was on there for a while and audrey lindley from

threes company good choice of a show to pick up

I gotgot that Tom Wopat was on the series

Oh well. I was hoping for Murphy Brown or Caroline in the City. Mary Tyler Moore would have been great but sadly that's too old for them.

Murphy Brown and Caroline in The City has already been on Lifetime TV

Murphy Brown and Caroline in The City has already been on Lifetime TVCybill has too.

When did Cybill last air on Lifetime TV

The episode I saw was in 2004.

It was on Oxygen from like 2001-2004.

Wouldn't the Facts of Life be in the target demo for Lifetime?

that be a good choice for lifetime but u know their edit it like they did golden girls

all channels, for the most part, edit....it's a fact of life (pun intentional).
Still exposure on a major cable channel would probably help demand for Sony to start releasing the show on DVD again.

I think Cybil will be a perfect fit for Lifetime, but they do need to get a ratings winner after letting TGG expire...

I wonder if Lifetime is regretting letting TGG go......

Not really, Fresh Prince and Family are doing well on N@N and still there are no DVD releases.

Uh......last time I checked.......Fresh Prince and Family Matters were Warner Bros, not Sony! :p

I've been watching The Golden Girls on the Hallmark Channel. They show maybe 2-3 episodes back to back. In the mornings and evenings.

apparently GG is turning into one of those "evergreen" shows that will keep showing up in reruns and do well no matter who plays it.

Uh......last time I checked.......Fresh Prince and Family Matters were Warner Bros, not Sony! :p


No Need for the smart A$$ comment ok? I was just saying that i know of two shows in syndication that does well but it didn't make the production company rush out a release.

Lifetime has quietly readded Reba in the 8pm hour again. So Reba airs 7-9pm weeknights, in addition to 9-10am. The 1-2am airings are now Will & Grace, since it lost the 8-9pm hour.

Also, heads up for Friday...I'll be announcing a new sitcom coming to Lifetime in June. No hints, sorry.

well I no you said no Hints but to we get to take a guess

I already know what it is but I will keep quiet. But I am glad they are adding that show

LOL, Solomon is playing mind games. He doesn't know what the show is. He can't since it was just announced today, lol. I'll announce it Friday on the blog, because I have some ION/TV Land news for tomorrow, along with the CW upfront prediction.
