Bah. I'm going to go ahead and predict the schedule will be different and off the clock will stay...this channel is totally not worth watching anymore.

Same as June (but as of now, off-the-clock programming is not happening in July...see blog for details)

LOL... :lol: I'll believe it when I see it.

Roseanne July 4th Feuds & Fireworks
Saturday, July 4 and Sunday, July 5, 2009
8pm-1am ET/PT each night (encores 1am-6am)
Spend 4th of July with Roseanne and you'll get different types of fireworks on this 4th of July weekend.
(episodes coming soon)
TV Land sure has high hopes for Roseanne. It hasn't even had it's "premiere" marathon yet, and TV Land has already planned another marathon for next month.

Roseanne is becoming the face of the network. It hasn't even "launched" yet, but it's still getting a thousand airings and a 4th of July marathon that's more than a month away. It must be doing well, though. I watch it when I can, and even though it's off the clock, it's nice to see the show in primetime again.

And off the clock not happening in July? Yeah, right. That's what they want us to think, but I'm sure around the middle of June, that'll change as it always does.

I'm sure the real test will be the marathon (see if there's a PR). I would like to see how it is doing now, though, considering the way the airings are.

Jeffersons came early too like this, in 2006, and still had their huge launch but I don't think it did that well....but they kept it at good airtimes before the launch and for a while after, so I expect Roseanne to be similar, but it could very well be a hit. They will probably let it get settled after the marathon before changing anything if needed.

The marathon should be on Sunday instead of Saturday. Saturday is a Outdoor Family Holiday and who in the world would be watching TV?-lol

As posted, the Roseanne marathon is BOTH Saturday and Sunday.

Got some changes thru July 12 so far (off-the-clock is over starting July 6, as of now):

As I predicted MWC is gone, no big surprise. But this schedule is horrid. Beaver gone and no Andy. :rolleyes:

Andy is still on weekends. Beaver I hear didn't do well at noon on weekdays, but it will continue to air until June 26. And don't count out Married... yet. They'll work something out with Spike. I know it is doing well, but it is complicated to air because of Spike. As of now, on the clock returns July 6.

THANK YOU GOD!!!!!!!!! I hope the off the clock being gone actually happens.

Not surprised MWC is gone. Looks like all the marathons are probably just trying to get new viewers for when it comes back to Spike.

Even more Roseanne... with MWC gone that means 8 hours on Monday and Tuesday, and the 2 hours on weekends from 6-8am is extremely weird looking.

10am-12pm on Saturday, July 11 is SpongeBob, as he celebrates his 10th anniversary.

So I have no reason to turn to Tv land at this point in time.

10am-12pm on Saturday, July 11 is SpongeBob, as he celebrates his 10th anniversary.:rolleyes:

This whole schedule is just....? A show about a blue-collar family dominating it, then an original about a bunch of "glamourous" women, then these westerns. It's just a mess. I'm surprised Beaver can't even work at 12pm, it used to be one of the network leaders. Pavan, do you know what's up with Andy Griffith? Seems to me like they want to distance themselves from it.

I guess Home Improvement won't be leaving Nick@Nite next month, because it isn't on TV Land.

Solomon, did you not hear that there will be a Married...with Children marathon weekend of June 27-28??

clj2, it sure looks like it. I remember when ION wanted to move away from Mama's Family, and it seems TV Land is trying to do the same here with Andy. But at least Andy is still on, whether it just be for weekend blocks or not.

I can understand them wanting to distance themselves from Andy Griffith in primetime, but middays/late afternoons/early evenings? I couldn't see it skewing any older than the westerns and The Beverly Hillbillies.

I'm not sure Beaver really got a fair chance at noon. Extreme Makeover has been airing there for a while...not exactly the same audience....give the Beaver audience longer to find the show! Outside of us/folks on the TV Land forums...how much of the audience really knows about every weeks schedule changes? I'm not sure Good Times is really the best lead-in either. I like both shows and I know others do too, but I think The Andy Griffith Show and The Brady Bunch are probably the best lead-ins for Beaver.

Yeah, I remember Mama's Family -- it vanished from ION (along with the rest of the library shows) even though it was getting very good ratings and was the head of the network. TV Land seems to be doing the same thing. I have a very, very hard time seeing Beaver and Andy (which were always paired) not garnering sufficient ratings to air during the day. They always did well. So I definately think demos is the thing here. I bet we will see another CSI sighting. I bet the westerns will be next to go, or be whacked down.

Remember if they don't renew M*A*S*H, Jeffersons, and Green Acres (which isn't even airing) will be goners come August. I don't think any will be renewed. M*A*S*H is in a very tough spot. Jeffersons can easily be replaced. Acres is probably already gone. Again, Andy needs to be allowed to expire and go to Hallmark. It would be perfect over there. Perfect fit along with M*A*S*H, Lucy, LHOTP (which all seem to be doing well).

I really don't know what to make of this. So Married with Children bombed in primetime, but it must have done astoundingly well over the weekend. I'm still not sure if Roseanne is doing good in bad. Now its got morning airings, more primetime airings, and the same 5 hours in latenight. Honestly, I think Roseanne is airing more than any other show has ever aired on TV Land before. It has to be doing well.

And on the clock? This schedule is already looking up. It'll be interesting to see if ratings will go back up because off the clock is gone. Perhaps TV Land should start advertising "And Come July, you can watch your favorite shows ON TIME!"

Week of July 6th is listed as off the clock... :rolleyes: 12:30am half-hour is missing. :mad:

So Married with Children bombed in primetime, but it must have done astoundingly well over the weekend.

Where on earth do you make these judgments, Julie?? No one said no such thing about it "bombing." In fact I keep saying MWC is doing well! It is doing more better really than Roseanne. First you said Roseanne was doing well when TV Land over aired Roseanne for all of primetime last week and it only mustered 550,000 viewers or so, now with this MWC "bombing" stuff? Come on.

And yes, Brent, off-the-clock will continue in July. But it will be better than before it seems, with just probably in PRIME.

Well that's just peachy since the only time I watch TV Land is during PRIME. :rolleyes:

Oh well, Roseanne episodes start over on July 13th(yes already, lol) so I'll probably be largely done with TV Land after that.

:rolleyes: at this Roseanne. It's a joke. Air it until 1 or 2am, fine, but this is a joke. Why even advertise the July 4th thing as a stunt? Here we have all of this Roseanne....OK, that works for now, but what about when the fans get sick of it being on night after night? :rolleyes: They need some more 'recent' shows instead of the same one all night. Why isn't MWC already airing daily if it's working? That's where I'm confused.

None of the August shows have been renewed -- I bet we can kiss them goodbye. Pavan...think any of them have a chance? They are clearly NOT what TV Land is wanting now. I still don't see how Extreme Makeover can do better from 12-1 than Beaver/Andy Griffith.

OK, I need some things explained:

1) What does TV Land hope to gain by going off the clock? I speak for a lot of people when I say that it drives me up the wall. Can you imagine my surprise when a new episode of MWC started to air at 8:15?

2) Also, why is TV Land recutting their shows to insert act breaks in random places? I remember when they used to air Cosby that they'd go to commercial at the end of act one and again right before the credits. Now, they're going to commercial every five minutes. What the hell?

3) I honestly think TV Land should pick up Mama's Family.

4) They really need to kill Prime. It sucks. Many of its "original programming" hasn't worked. And honestly, I don't care if "she" has the look or not. What if she doesn't? Then what, TV Land?

I'd switch over to Hallmark or Retro, but I don't have either channel. Thanks, Comcast.

Amen to all of this. And as far as the breaks go, did anyone notice (and thye're not the only one) they have 2 more minutes of ads than they used to? Their half hour program lengths used to be in the 22 min. range; now they're 20. ION used to sometimes be in the 19-20 minute range. How far can they push this stuff?

Sorry to quote myself, but kudos to WGN Am for their retro stuff--all of it is in the 23-24 minute range. With Newhart many times they have almost the full network version (sometimes even with the "Next on Newhart" included--that's probably an editing error somewhere).

Where on earth do you make these judgments, Julie?? No one said no such thing about it "bombing." In fact I keep saying MWC is doing well! It is doing more better really than Roseanne.

And yes, Brent, off-the-clock will continue in July. But it will be better than before it seems, with just probably in PRIME.

But Roseanne has completely taken over TV Land primetime-lol. Married with Children isn't airing anyway besides that big weekend marathon. So, it must have done well last weekend, but must not be so hot in primetime. I find that to be a simple judgment, don't you?

And as I said before, seems like Roseanne is doing best in latenight, where the standards are lower. It's still airing 11pm-4am, afterall.

And now off the clock will continue in primetime - whether or not its as bad as before is besides the question. Off the clock has to be hurting their ratings, but as long as TV Land can get in those extra commercials, what difference does it make? :rolleyes:

Did you see the grids I linked to in the June thread? The Roseanne July 4th marathon will be off the clock from like 9pm-4am.

Here is what I don't understand....I'm not disputing here, we've all seen the numbers (not exactly for MWC, but I believe what's being said). Roseanne isn't doing great, but it's airing from 11pm-4am, getting those weekend airings, that 7/4 marathon, gets another marathon in primetime. MWC does well but isn't airing in July. LITB/TAGS are their highest rated 50s/60s sitcoms yet they aren't even on the daytime/morning schedule. I guess I don't understand where this is coming from. I find EM:HE doing better than those 2 pretty hard to believe.

I watched Roseanne for 4 hours last night. Those commercial breaks are unbearable. The break after the opening credits has to be about 6 minutes long. I swear, I can't take it.

I don't get it either. Roseanne can't be doing great, but its airing just about all the time. It's airing for at least 4 hours every weeknight. I really don't know what to make of this schedule.

:rolleyes:
I hate those breaks right after the openings. I would rather just have a commercial break inbetween episodes instead. Lets see, commercials, tag scene (no closing credits either:rolleyes: ), opening credits, commercials. UGH! I wonder if although Roseanne didn't do well overall, it did well in the demo they want? Or maybe they want newer shows at night, but just don't have many now so they are using Cosby and Roseanne and tossing ratings for demos. Still don't understand why MWC is leaving when it does well. :confused:

Let me just add, I hate that blue 'ticker' they use in place of the credits on Andy Griffith, Hillbillies, Married, and Leave it to Beaver to name a few. I wonder why they leave the closing credits intact for some shows (Good Times, LHOTP, Green Acres) but not others?

TV Land goes after women 40-55, right? I can definitely see Roseanne getting most of its viewers with that demo. That has to be the only reason Roseanne is one so much - total viewers wise, it's only doing modestly, but demo wise, its a very strong performer.

Perhaps TV Land has just given up on bringing viewers in, which is understandable, so now they're going after the demo.

MWC just started at 12:20am *sigh* :rolleyes:

I am so done with this channel once they get through all the Roseanne episodes.

MWC just started at 12:20am *sigh* :rolleyes:

I am so done with this channel once they get through all the Roseanne episodes.They went off the clock at 9pm. Somebody at the TV Land boards said MWC started at 11:45pm or something. How did they air 4 M*A*S*H episodes inbetween 10:07PM and 11:45PM? Seems to me like it was probably 3 episodes instead.

I don't think they ever came out and said they wanted women 40-55 Julie but that's what it looks like with shows like Cougar, SGTL, How'd You Get So Rich, etc.

This channel will be off the air soon at this rate. There is no consistency or coherence to the schedule at all :rolleyes:

I know How can they air 4 M*A*S*H from 9:07 pm until 10:45 pm CT Time

I know How can they air 4 M*A*S*H from 9:07 pm until 10:45 pm CT Time

They didn't, only three were listed on TV Land's schedule.

I think they play the games with the closing credits on their long-term shows, beacuse it has to cost them $ to do this, whether it's done in-house or by contract. It used to replace the credit crunch to get in their promos. Now, I think it's to gain 30 more seconds of ad time.

I noticed yesterday, that the start and end times for off-the-clock programming are listed in my IPG.

What is IPG and what is The Wedsite www.titantv.com and www.tvguide.com has TV Land Programming on The Clock

IPG= Interactive Program Guide

Thanks for telling me what IPG Stans for

Does anyone want to take a stab as to what TV Land will probably do on and after 7/13? :rolleyes: I think it will stay the same, except maybe some of that Roseanne cut down. I don't get why we aren't seeing Home Improvement. God, they could air 3rd Rock From the Sun from 3-4am or SOMETHING other than Roseanne!! I don't think 3rd Rock did that badly..

Weekends will probably be Beaver, Andy, and Hogan's Heroes marathons from 12pm-10pm (divided, with Andy probably 5pm-10pm). I think they'll keep the "Classic Marathons" on the weekends for now at least. I think they're wanting to air shows that don't have a place on the regular schedule then. They should do a farewell for The Jeffersons and Green Acres I think in August (I still say they won't be renewed) but I think Acres is done completely.

I just noticed the week of July 13th is now out. The only change I see is on Mondays replacing the MWC marathon is now a movie/special type thing(History of the World Part 1 on the 6th and Doc Hollywood on the 13th), with Roseanne starting after it at 10 or 10:30. Saturday the 18th is Brady Bunch/Andy and the 19th is Bonanza/Andy, with Cosby/Roseanne late on Saturday and the AFI awards on the 19th.

Now... July 13th IS over 2 weeks away so I'm sure this will change wildly. LOL

Do you know the fate yet of the three sitcoms expiring at the end of August? I am 90% sure they probably won't be renewed.

I like the Sanford and Son marathon but 7/19 is a BORE!! I wish they would do more marathons of shows that aren't airing on weekends. Star Trek, Hogan's Heroes, Green Acres, and Leave it to Beaver are just sitting. Those westerns and The Jeffersons get decent airings every weekday.

I agree Brent, National Lampoon again??? :rolleyes: They are becoming more dependent on movies in prime-time since their shows don't seem to be working.

Yes, these are the weekend and Monday additions:

Monday movies:
Monday, July 6: 8pm-10pm History of the World (Premiere)
Monday, July 13: 8pm-10:30pm Doc Hollywood
Monday, July 20: 8pm-10pm National Lampoon's Vacation
Monday, July 27: 8pm-10pm National Lampoon's European Vacation

Weekend Marathons:
Saturday, July 18
11am-5pm Brady Bunch
5pm-10pm Andy Griffith Show

Sunday, July 19
6am Star Trek
7am Gunsmoke
8am-4pm Bonanza
4pm-9pm Andy Griffith Show

Saturday, July 25
11:30am-6pm The Jeffersons
6pm-11pm Andy Griffith Show

Sunday, July 26
11am-6pm Sanford & Son
6pm-10:30pm Andy Griffith Show

Nice To see a Jeffersons marathon on a SATURDAY

TV Land thinks it' viewers are too stupid to remember National Lampoon's Vacation was already aired in 2007

It gets worse... it's the PRIME movie next Friday, and reairs next Saturday Morning, plus it airs on N@N July 26th.

Something strange just happened on TV LAND and not sure if it was a pogramming error. I was watching the MWC marathon and the movie GREASE just appeared out of nowhere. I thoought MWC was suppoaed to stop at 7pm?

They've aired National Lampoon's Vacation frequently since 2006. I bet it's aired 6 or 7 times.

It was a last minute change due to Farrah Fawcett's death. It was going to be repeats of earlier episodes today anyway.

Tomorrow the marathon ends at 2pm for 10 hours of Michael Jackson tributes, but picks up again from 12-2am.

If they are going to do a tribute to Michael they can do something much better than airing that STUPID A$$ MOVIE. So many more things to air

Grease isn't stupid, it's one of the best movies of all time.

Not Grease, that stupid a$$ movie called "THE JACKSONS, American Dream"

I can't speak for the quality of the movie(never seen it), but I am glad they are doing something to remember him. What I don't understand is why it needs to air twice back to back like that. I would have just aired it from 7pm-Midnight, and MWC until 7 tomorrow. I think the reason TV Land's ratings suck is because almost everything airs at least twice(and SGTL airs about 50 times a week, not to mention twice on Thursday Night back to back!) You don't have to watch the original airing like with many other channels, so therefore the ratings suffer.

I know, and I honestly wasn't expecting a tribute to MJ by TV land but I figured if they did do one it would be ODD as usual

I think airing the Jackson movie is actually a normal tribute for them. They love to air movies, and this is just one of those movies. Plus, they were probably able to get quick rights to it, air it one for a day, then be done. They would never have been able to get rights to all those shows you listed in a day. This is just a quick tribute they're able to give in a short amount of time, and I'm glad they're doing it.

But the movie has nothing to do with Michael the Singer/himself, just a person trying to be like Michael. And since that is the case air one time, not over and over and over-lol

They're only airing it twice, which probably is one time too many, but at least they're doing a tribute to him in someway. It's not like he's a classic TV star like Farrah was.

Does anyone else have a feeling we'll see major changes in August? I don't know why, or when, but I see them making some big changes for some reason, notably prime-time and late nights. I don't see all of that Roseanne continuing for so long.

I noticed Charlie's Angels at 8pm had the "PRIME" bug. Have they expanded PRIME?

We could, but you just can't tell with TV Land.

I don't think TV Land knows when PRIME is themselves. They could stick it in at 2pm and no one would know the difference.

Why wait til August? This is TV Land, they have radically changed the schedule with a few hours notice before(last month when Roseanne came early). I'm honestly surprised the schedule generally looks to stay the same for the 3rd week in a row. :brent I don't think we've seen the last of MWC and I think Home Improvement will be on the schedule if not in August, then definitely by September.

I definitely agree, I can't see Roseanne airing so much for so long either.

I'm really annoyed, they changed the 3:30am Roseanne episode which was supposed to be a first run episode at the last minute(after the whole Farrah stuff was added) for one that aired before the marathon and during the launch marathon(and encored both times) and also aired at 10pm(added at the last minute) and the one they removed is one of the few not reairing so it was skipped. :rolleyes: I just don't get this pathetic channel.

I don't get why they're skipping over so many Roseanne episodes. The last episode I watched last night was the 3am one - but wasn't it great to have the episodes start and end on time? Seems like all the episodes they're airing are ones they already aired. I think they aired the pot episode about 5 times already.

I'm also enjoying Married with Children. Too bad they could air a MWT marathon every weekend. I think we'll definitely see it returning soon. And you're absolutely right - I'm shocked we've gotten the same schedule, with no sudden changes, for 3 weeks. It's a miracle.

Home Improvement is going to have to come. They can't rely on Roseanne, Cosby, and movies to fill 7:00PM-5:00AM. It's barely on Nick@Nite next month, why wait? Roseanne from 11pm-4am just isn't practical. And yeah, the schedule probably will change :lol: With the removal of Leave it to Beaver, I don't even bother watching them anymore. The whole channel is just worthless now and it's pathetic.

The marathons of Bonanza, Sanford and Son and The Jeffersons on the weekends are pretty boring, IMO. They're on every weekday, especially The Jeffersons and Bonanza. The "classic marathons" should be shows not regularly airing, like they are doing with Andy Griffith (which, IMO, shouldnt get a marathon every weekend, at least at night), Beaver, Brady Bunch, Hogan's Heroes. Why not Star Trek or give Green Acres one last hurrah? Then again, I guess The Jeffersons deserves a marathon, because I still bet it will be gone (along with M*A*S*H, it's useless to them now) come September.

Once TV Land can get rid of paid programking (they really need to) and stop the off-the-clock stuff, they need a set schedule!
I'm proposing two parts to the schedule. Classic TV Land (6A-6P) and Modern/PRIME TV Land (6P-6A). This way everyone is happy! The N is dropping Saved by the Bell (for now?) and Growing Pains, so I think they fit better on TV Land.

Weekends can have Star Trek at 6am, then Gunsmoke/Bonanza 7-9am, and then classic marathons from 9am-6pm. Modern/PRIME takes over 6pm-6am with marathons of their own maybe.

I don't think they can air LHOTP at 6am, can they? I think they have it 6pm-6am, so in that scenario I don't think it would really have a place (like MASH). Other than that, I think that is a very good idea.

I like the idea of having a "Classic" TV Land and then splitting it apart from 6pm-6am, then having PRIME then. Do you know when they will announce something about the 3 shows expiring next month? I'm sure Acres will be gone. They need to overhaul the whole channel and concept....classics by day, modern by night. Stop confusing the viewers!

My mistake, forgot about Little House. They can air M*A*S*H then in the mornings, since they have it from 8pm-8am. Little House can be on weekends or not on at all, since the 6pm-6am thing won't fit it.

I won't know the renewal details until the schedule comes out.

WOW, this would be an awesome schedule. I'm hoping TV Land at least makes some moves in the right direction come August(more variety and no off the clock). I also want MWC to come back. TV Land is the only one of TBS/TV Land/Spike that airs it at a decent time(9-11am on Spike, blah).

What do you all think about some DECENT original programming on TV Land? I mean good quality, scripted. Not this failing garbage like The Cougar and She's Got the Look (which The Link even said are doing badly, and they must be for him to say so). Maybe a sitcom or even a drama. Some of it was good (Top 10, Inside TV Land, TV Land Confidential) but the stuff in the last 2 years has been awful. I don't know what sort of access they have to movies, but I could see them airing a movie daily in the afternoon or even primetime soon in place of the westerns.

TV Land August will see some changes in the mornings from 9am-1pm. I think this will seal the fate of The Jeffersons and Green Acres. More to come later this week on the blog, if all goes well.

Wow, weekday morning changes. That has been about the only daypart to stay consistent during the 1st 1/2 of 09.

I would love to see MWC, SBTB, HI, and GP all together during primetime- great 80s/90s TV fun! But they rather do things like air a show for 5+ hours straight and show encores of originals, etc...

That Joan Rivers show could do moderately well. She seems to bring in an audience no matter what she's on.

But I think if that doesn't hit, TV Land needs to give up on original programming altogether. It's more costly than airing reruns, and it isn't doing better than reruns. They keep trying to find that one show, but they just can't do it.

I'm still thinking we'll see Jeffersons renewed and Green Acres gone. It could reall go either way, though. Looking forward to that August schedule.

They still have HSR which I believe is coming back within the next few months. I hate the show, but apparently people like to watch a bunch of middle aged people act like teenagers. Anyway, I found a thread on the TV Land boards that has a tentative (rough) schedule for August. The poster said that they got the info from the host of SO.

I highly doubt that's the schedule. Seems completely bogus to me.

High School Reunion could do good again, but look at SGTL. It did well in its first season, and came back this year and now its doing poorly. The same thing could happen to HSR. You just can't depend on any show to do well on TV Land anymore.

LOL, that stuff is bogus, just as I said there. It makes about as much sense as Nick at Nite airing Patty Duke. :lol:

Julie, why do you think they will renew The Jeffersons? It did about the same as Green Acres I think. 9am-1pm wouldn't be changing if it wasn't going. Both shows seemed to do about the same, with Acres doing a little better it seems. It actually maintained some decent timeslots longer.

That schedule is bogus and I would never release a schedule to anyone like that. Big time lie right there. I hope someone over there says that I said no such thing (and that schedule is way off).

It seemed to me like The Jeffersons was always the better performing show. For one, Green Acres never aired consistently, while The Jeffersons aired in that 10am slot for over a year. It must have been performing moderately well there for it to air so long, especially on a network like TV Land-lol.

Or, both could not be renewed. I guess we'll see today with that schedule.

Good to hear - that schedule was horrendous :lol:

If this ever happens again, assume it is false. Unless there is a direct link to us, it is not true. We will only post the schedules here on the message board, blog or Twitter. The only three ways we release stuff.

It seemed a little whack to me, but given the direction TV Land is going in, I wouldn't have been surprised if it was close to accurate. Nonetheless, its a breath of fresh air, to know that schedule is someones sick little joke. I apologize for any misunderstanding, angst, etc. and will go put a dunce cap on in the corner. :D

Someone, presumably from this website took care of it. :mad:

I figured that schedule was fake because it just wasn't a reliable source or a way that it's always released.

About the original programming: Honestly, I wish they'd get rid of all of it. Years ago TV Land was much stronger than they are now and they didn't have any original programming back then. They really should go back to their roots.

Someone, presumably from this website took care of it. :mad:

No one from this website released no such thing to anyone.

I responded to that days ago and said it wasn't correct.

I don't think they are going to renew any show that isn't serving the network a purpose (Green Acres, The Jeffersons). They can easily do All in the Family 9-10, The Jeffersons 10-11, then Good Times 11-12 and probably get the same ratings. Then again, they renewed Leave it to Beaver, but I'm sure it probably does better than those 2.

Pav, you should try to convince TV Land to impose your great idea of classic from 6AM-6PM and then more modern shows for the remainder of the day.

I'm still thinking we'll see Jeffersons renewed and Green Acres gone. It could reall go either way, though. Looking forward to that August schedule.


Well atleast TV one will still be airing the show

No one from this website released no such thing to anyone.

Did you misunderstand me? I meant that someone from this website went over to the TV Land boards in addition to cj2 and said that the info was false. I wasn't talking about someone from this website releasing that bogus schedule.

I don't want any trouble man...

If I were them, I would do this weekday mornings in September, and have a decent variety of classic sitcoms from the 70s and 50s/60s, since they don't seem interested in airing them anymore after early afternoons:

9:00AM All in the Family
9:30AM Good Times
10:00AM Sanford and Son
10:30AM Sanford and Son
11:00AM Andy Griffith Show
11:30AM Andy Griffith Show
12:00PM Leave it to Beaver
12:30PM Hogan's Heroes

and keep The Beverly Hillbillies 1pm-2pm. I would have weekend "Classic TV Land" marathons run weekends from 8am-8pm, with one show from 8am-2pm and another one from 2pm-8pm each weekend. Rotate marathons of Hogan's Heroes, The Beverly Hillbillies, and Good Times in the morning/early afternoon then Andy Griffith, Leave it to Beaver, and Sanford and Son from 2pm-8pm.

I'll be announcing August tomorrow.

This is what I am thinking


8:00 am CT Good Times
8:30 am CT Good Times
9:00 am CT Andy Griffith

Starting tomorrow, She's Got the Look will air new episodes at 10pm instead of 9pm. Previous week's encores will air at 9 instead.

Starting tomorrow, She's Got the Look will air new episodes at 10pm instead of 9pm. Previous week's encores will air at 9 instead.

TV Land just needs to stop with the original programming. Nothing is working for them. She's Got The Look can be added to their list of "originals that didn't work."

The first season did well. 1 million viewers. They needed to keep the originals Wednesdays at 10 and it looks like they learned that because the two August originals are going back there now.

Just because it was big last year doesn't always guarantee that it would do well this year. Look at how bad TV Land is this year as opposed to last year at this time. They had higher rated shows. The fewer viewers for TV Land, the fewer viewers for SGTL. I think the time change for the show in the middle of a season will hurt, instead of help....I bet it won't be back. "Make My Day" will probably be a bomb too.

You know something....I was just looking at the schedule, and they don't have a single hit program on the lineup other than the westerns :crazy:

It's crazy. I don't get how shows like Roseanne and The Cosby Show can be so highly rated on NAN, yet they get close to nothing on TV Land. NAN even mentioned Roseannne in its last press release-lol.

I really don't think its the shows, like you said. People have just given up on TV Land. They aren't watching it anymore, no matter what's airing.

And starting this morning, I don't think I get TV Land anymore. A blue screen is coming up on my TV that because of the digital switch, I no longer get TV Land. Pretty sure that means it has become a digital-only channel now, at least for Comcast users. Go figure :rolleyes:

Can't wait to see the August schedule, but I doubt I'll be watching it much barring MWC coming back.

Well, they aren't really missing anything :lol: I want to trade TV Land for WGN. IMO, TV Land is one of the most pointless cable channel out there. There is absolutely nothing compelling.

Very true. Comcast is arguably the biggest cable provider out there. Them dropping TV Land from the basic packages is a huge loss. Just imagine how low their ratings are going to get now :eek:

Makes me wonder if other providers will begin to follow suit -- if so, this could really hurt them. Not everyone has digital, or can afford it....I think it costs significantly more doesn't it?

I wish Dish Network would pull it from their base package that I have and give me something else :lol:

Digital is much more expensive than basic cable. I only pay for digital in my living room television, but our bedroom and basement TV's don't come with digital, so I won't be able to watch TV Land much anymore. It disappoints me too, because I was actually getting into the routine of watching Roseanne every night. Why does TV Land have to have such bad ratings?? :lol:

For August mornings I'm going to guess...

12:30p- The Andy Griffith Show

(but I have a hard time seeing them dropping back-to-back airings on most shows)

I don't see The Brady Bunch coming to weekdays and maybe not even Beaver since it apparently didn't do too well at noon.

(but I have a hard time seeing them dropping back-to-back airings on most shows)

I don't see The Brady Bunch coming to weekdays and maybe not even Beaver since it apparently didn't do too well at noon.I bet on the first one. I think they will bring TAGS/LITB back, as those are probably the most successful "classics" they have. The only reason I can think LITB didn't work was the fact that it was so different than what had been airing there for a while (EM:HE).

Yeah, my first one is similar to what their schedule was at about this time last year except The Jeffersons had one airing at 10am and I Love Lucy had 2 airings at noon. Beaver lost that 11:30am airing soon after they moved it to 5pm/5:30pm around the end of 08.

I could also see them bumping up Good Times to 10am/10:30am, airing 2 episodes of Three's Company at 11am, followed by 2 Andy Griffith Show episodes at 12pm. Maybe even 2 episodes of Sanford and Son at 9am and dropping All in the Family from the weekday line-up.

I have never understood why but they haven't aired Three's Company much outside of 11pm-5am. It has rarely aired evenings or mornings. When it does they yank it.

Yeah I can see them pulling AITF. It's never done that well it seems.

Comcast in my area doesn't even give you the option anymore to choose between basic and digital cable. Digital Cable is the only option.

It's Time for Sanford and Son, All in the Family, and Good Times to GO

I don't see Sanford And son going anywhere.

Well obviously it is not every Comcast, I have Comcast and it is still on basic.

Did you announce the new schedule yet? Is the Jeffersons gone?

The Schedule will be Announced Thursday, July 2, 2009.

What is with TV Land tonight? Roseanne was supposed to start at 11(with SGTL encore at 10, TV Land's website still has that listed) and yet I flip by at 10:55 and an episode is going off, and now they are airing an out of order episode different from the one listed. It seems obvious to me SGTL is bombing, with the changing of timeslots on Thursday for the originals and now apparently pulling encores at the last second. I say good because is it really necessary to reair the same show 10 times a week?

Oh and IT'S ON THE CLOCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :eek:

On the clock and I'm missing this??? So did the SGTL 10:00 encore not air? IMO, that's a good idea. The encore was obviously bringing down the regular airing ratings. I never understood why they did that in the first place.

I didn't think it was worth posting, but I noticed the other day that a SGTL encore was supposed to air instead of Good Times (so my OSG says) from 11am-12pm...well, Good Times aired instead. They are yanking the encores. This may be doing worse than The Cougar. And the promos go on about what a hit it is and how the press raves. "Women with dignity?" Taking their tops off and seen in their underwear? Yeah....dignity :rolleyes:

Another thing. Under the bug, it says "She's Got the Look, New episode tomorrow 9PM & 10PM." Um, the new episode is at 10PM! One icon for TV Land: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: !

TV Land is dumb. When I first saw that I thought it meant there would be TWO new episodes.

Julie: I'm assuming Roseanne started at 10 after Cosby, not exactly sure though but I don't see any way the SGTL encore aired unless they cut Cosby and aired it at 9:30 or something, but that would make even less sense than this(if that's possible).

Well, if they were smart they would air 2 new episodes a week and burn it off. It's undoubtedly bringing the already frail network down even more.

That's what a normal viewer would probably think. The fact that they're advertising the same episode airing twice is throwing people off, making them think its 2 new episodes. It's almost like false advertising - no wonder the ratings for this show have gotten so low.

If Roseanne's doing so badly, I still don't see the reason to air it all the time. I love the show, but if the ratings are bad, they should air something else.

This is the biggest mystery to me. It has to be doing the best of what they have in PRIME since it airs so much and seems to be the show they turn to to fill in when they pull something, not to mention it's got another huge marathon this weekend.

Oh, they've started promoting The Cosby Show weeknights at 7pm, saw it during Good Times. I guess it isn't doing too great. It's been on TV Land since 2006 (well, all the time since late 2008) and hasn't done that great. I am baffled about how well Roseanne and Cosby Show did on NAN but they falter on TV Land. Hey, I know it wouldn't fit, but I'm surprised they don't add Full House :lol: as much as I hate it, it's worth a try...they have tried all of NAN's other has-beens.

I wonder why they haven't tried bringing 3rd Rock From the Sun back. I actually thought it was doing well, it got a lot of marathons and special airings when it started. Airing it during PRIME would at least add some variety.

It really doesn't make sense. How can airing of Roseanne on NAN pull over 2 million (okay, it was under special circumstances, but still), yet have trouble to pull over 500,000 on TV Land?

They should try 30 Rock again. They could also try Scrubs again. They need to try going the route of NAN with a balanced schedule. A show from 8-9, 9-10, 10-11, etc. If they would do that and stick with it, I bet their ratings would slowly go up.

This is the biggest mystery to me. It has to be doing the best of what they have in PRIME since it airs so much and seems to be the show they turn to to fill in when they pull something, not to mention it's got another huge marathon this weekend.

Its not even amusing to me how much they air this show. It's constantly being used for filler programming, along with its primetime airings and latenight minimarathons. Yet, it isn't doing well. I don't get it.

I'm just as confused, Julie. I honestly thought it would work for them, naturally because it did on NAN. If you look at the tvland.com Roseanne board, it has barely moved. Their most popular show boards are Andy Griffith, Leave it to Beaver, Gunsmoke, Bonanza, Hogan's Heroes, and M*A*S*H (in that order ususally). I have never seen the tvland.com boards full of as many complaints as they have gotten with Roseanne.

So now according to tvland.com SGTL will encore at 11pm tomorrow. :rolleyes: They will never learn.

So now according to tvland.com SGTL will encore at 11pm tomorrow. :rolleyes:

So what'll air at 10pm?

You'd think they'd realize that the repeats are hurting the ratings, not helping it. :rolleyes:

The people at those forums will find anything to complain about. That's the main reason I stopped going there. It's really just not a friendly bunch of people. Perhaps Roseanne struck a deal with TV Land that they must air her show the most, or else :lol:

She's Got the Look will air 9pm-12am tomorrow. 9pm is the previous week repeat, 10pm is all-new and 11pm is the immediate encore.

Ugh, I can't stand those forums. One small dose about once a week is plenty. :lol: They complain about everything(come to think of it, so do we, lol, but they are so unpleasant about it).

So just so we're clear, SGTL is apparently bombing but now it's got another hour on Thursday? and it's airing the original an hour later with a repeat as a lead-in? What exactly is that supposed to accomplish?

I think they've lost it. They keep airing more and more of their lowest performing shows! :crazy:

I think the SGTL immediate encore is for central time so it will still be at 10.

3 hours of SGTL? Do any of us really need that? I was fine with just 1 hour, but 3? It's unreal. If no one watched the episode originally, why would they watch the repeat at 9pm? And moving the show to 10pm isn't going to help any. And the encore at 11pm is going to be a bust as well. Makes no sense . . .

I posted this schedule on the TVLand boards and told them to use it. They're too dumb to take me up on the offer. :lol:

This network is pointless. Can't even stick by a decision for more than 2 days.

Roseanne is back at 11pm that night apparently as well.

Pointless should be their slogan.

At least Thursdays are on-the-clock.

So, I guess it did worse at 10pm last night :rolleyes: Stop the originals already.

Monday [7/6] has Bonanza airing from 2PM-6PM, no Gunsmoke. The next day has it back to Gunsmoke 2-4 and Bonanza 4-6, but it may not have updated yet. Good grief!!!! :eek:

And Roseanne is 10PM-4AM that night :rolleyes:

As I stated in the August thread, TV Land desperately needs to overhaul the schedule ASAP. They need to work on getting the ratings up (like they did last summer, and worry more about the demos come this fall) and balance the schedule more. Can all of that Roseanne. I bet a schedule like this could bring the ratings back up to 750-800k. Using what they have, I propose this until maybe October (and don't make major changes then):

Thoughts? I tried to base it on what shows do the best at certain times, and worst. Maybe afternoons would do better if they did a second Bonanza from 4-5pm and aired Hogan's Heroes at 12PM instead of Beaver, not really sure. It would be nice to see a sitcom block again in the afternoon. Roseanne couldn't be that bad just 12-1am.

Off the clock makes it almost totally unwatchable.:rolleyes: According to the TV Land grid on the schedule updates board, off the clock times will vary nightly by about 5 minutes. I think they were always "off the clock" at the same time each night before, right? It's going to be off the clock from 8PM-4AM Monday but then 9PM-3AM the other nights.

They are really hurting themselves. FWIW, they're running some new Cosby promos I think. It's the only non-original they actually promote.

TV Land ratings last week (from tvbythenumbers):

Primetime 582k
Total day 520k

God, yank all of that Roseanne already! There is no arguing that Roseanne is not doing well. In April they got 800k roughly in primetime with Andy Griffith, Cosby Show, M*A*S*H, and The Cougar. Roseanne is the laggard and should be tossed. It's making things worse and has gained no audience whatsoever since it launched.

Like I said before, to advertisers, the demo is important. Roseanne has to be doing well in the main demos (18-49, 25-54) that TV Land is interested in. Maybe we shouldn't be basing everything off of TV Land's total viewers anymore.

You're right about the demos Julie....but if it was doing extremely well, it seems it would be showing. Then again, they may be making more money with the younger demos. What we need to see here probably are the breakdowns, which is what we really need to determine.

Oh well, I've given up on TV Land cutting some of that Roseanne. I don't even watch them anymore except weekends.

Nothing but exact numbers are going to tell us anything. We can't make any assumptions without seeing the breakdowns. But, I'm all for limiting Roseanne - what's the point? Seems to me like airing 2 episodes a night would make more people want to watch during that time. If its airing 8 hours a night, anyone can tune it at anytime, which seems to be a problem when ratings come in.

I agree, I'm getting sick of Roseanne being on all night every night. I've actually significantly cut back the amount of time I'm watching it. Barely have watched at all since the weekend.

It obviously has to be getting good ratings somewhere otherwise they would have cut back by now(we know how TV Land is with changing the schedule every couple of weeks, but they haven't in several weeks now). I don't get it.

What about She's Got the Look? We can't leave it out, I'm sure its ratings are a factor also. Since we haven't seen a PR or anything, and seeing the numbers, it doesn't look to be doing great, and overall they did great with it last year (but then again the whole channel was better off last year).
Remember what Pavan said....they could be airing Roseanne so much to burn airplays off. I think we will see it reduced before the end of August.

Roseanne should air from 11pm-12am, keep the marathons maybe, then give us some more variety from 12am-4am. It's on 8pm-4am tonight....that's just too much. Remember all of the variety the schedule even had at the end of last year, even late at night?

She's got The Look has to be doing terribly. I'm sure the original airings along with all the repeats are also bringing down ratings. There's also Cosby and the movies, and the weekend primetime, which could all be bringing down ratings. There's no knowing without actual show ratings.

Some changes for this Saturday. The Brady Bunch marathon has been scaled back. Boy, they've skipped a lot of episodes over the last month or so (almost all of Season 3).

5 episodes less of The Bradys now because of 2 extra episodes of She's Got the Look added in the morning (4 Brady Bunch episodes cut) and The Brady Bunch marathon will be off the clock it appears (1 episode lost because of this)

8am - 11am- She's Got the Look
11am- Movie
1pm - 5pm- Brady Bunch

What is the point of airing SGTL 3 times in a row? :rolleyes:

Yes, that change was made a week or so ago. I only posted on the first post of this thread.

At least they are still airing the Brady Bunch - we have to be pleased with anything we get from them nowadays.

Also, I noticed today that Oxygen was airing Roseanne in a huge marathon. Between these 2 channels I bet one could watch the entire 9 (?) seasons in about a week lol

Even with 4 hours there will still probably be repeats in the Brady Bunch marathon-lol

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Oxygen airs Roseanne from like 9am-3pm a couple days a week like a marathon.

I don't understand why The Brady Bunch marathon has to be cut for more SGTL??? The show barely airs and SGTL is on all the time. They seem to really be wanting it to do well but it just isn't.

If anyone's still watching, they are back on the clock now.

So that means one extra Roseanne :lol: Just what we need.

We just lost every cable channel we have today, lol. We now only get channels 2-23, and half of them are nothing. Luckily, the Comcast guy should be here in about half an hour, so hopefully I can start watching Roseanne again tonight! :D

Do we have any latest TV Land ratings? I really think going back on the block will help them - off the clock was just about unbareable.

Schedule alteration Monday:

7:00PM-10:00PM The Andy Griffith Show
10:00PM-12:00AM M*A*S*H

THANK YOU, TV LAND :clap: :clap: :clap: I wish this would continue.

Monday, July 27 National Lampoon's European Vacation is no longer scheduled from 8-10pm. We now get:

Monday, July 27, 2009
7-10pm The Andy Griffith Show
10pm-12am M*A*S*H

I think off-the-clock will be back. I read the other day somewhere on the TV Land boards from TheLink that it is expected to continue through the end of the year.

They need to go a head and just do Andy Griffith/M*A*S*H combination every Monday night (and maybe other nights) until they can get some more modern hits (MWC, Home Improvement). I think they launched PRIME too soon, they don't have enough shows to make it work. The originals have struggled and they show the same movies over and over. If they had a block made up of Roseanne, HI, MWC, and 3rd Rock it would bring more attention to PRIME. Roseanne is lonely!

Like I've preached all along PRIME should be suspended until they get some better shows for it. They need to air PRIME from 9pm-12am (as intended) and have 3 different shows for it.

I wish they would keep Andy and M*A*S*H next week. They need them.

Great, off the clock ends now that I've stopped watching because I got fed up with the bizarre start times. :rolleyes:

I wish MWC would come back, and Home Improvement needs to show up too. It would cut down on a lot of this Roseanne which has gotten beyond insane.

I'd like to see something this:

7-8 Andy Griffith
8-9 Home Improvement
9-10 Roseanne
10-11 MWC
11-12 Cosby

and then either repeat the shows late at night or do a rotating marathon until 3-4am(a different show each night, not just Roseanne)

Get rid of the dumb movies.

For September, I think TV Land really needs to implement a consistent daily schedule. I'm sick of having different schedules every day (although most of its Roseanne anyway). Even for now, something like Andy at 8pm, Cosby at 9pm, and Roseanne 10pm-12am is better than what they have now.

They really do need Home Improvement in the fall, though. They also need MWC and I'm hoping something is being worked out so they can air it regularly. I'd love to see something like Cosby at 8pm, HI at 9pm, MWC at 10pm, and Roseanne at 11pm come September.

They need to at least go a head and bump up Cosby to 8, put Andy Griffith back on at 7- making it so that the nightly Roseanne marathon or whatever at least doesn't start till 9. Put 3rd Rock from the Sun on at 1am, Three's Company on 2am - 4am and M*A*S*H on 4am - 6am.

I agree, no matter what the order of shows are, they have GOT to get a consistent schedule and stop with different shows on different nights in PRIME. They are never going to have any success if they don't IMO.

and Spike doesn't air MWC past 11am so I'm sure they could work SOMETHING out. They could air it anytime up til 2am. I hate that it airs in such terrible timeslots. I am completely miffed as to why Home Improvement isn't coming it seems. There has to be something up there, 2 times a week at 5am on Saturday Mornings on N@N is just weird.

I wonder why they suddenly decided to have this random TAGS/M*A*S*H thing? I wonder if it's to see how the ratings are for them compared to Roseanne and the other programming. They are their top 2 shows anyway.

They probably just didn't want to air the movie when NAN is airing it that Friday. They probably went with Andy/MASH because they didn't want another night of Roseanne. Andy/MASH are some of their top shows, but they probably skew ancient.

Airing shows all over the place is hurting them. They need to start being like NAN (well, at least what NAN was before) and get a consistent schedule. The changes need to stop. If they can get a regular PRIME schedule down, I'm sure ratings would go up.

HI would work perfectly with Roseanne. So would Married with Children. All 3 are shows about families - that would be the perfect way to get viewers in. I'm sure something could be worked out.

BTW, the Comcast guy just left, and I have TV Land back!!! lol. Can't wait to start watching Roseanne again - unlike you guys who have been watching it for weeks, I haven't watched it since June, so I'm excited :D Even better, I now get channels like Hallmark, Oxygen, and RTV as an added bonus - never had any of those before.

Julie, M*A*S*H and TAGS do skew old. I think the oldest-skewing show they have is Sanford and Son, according to TheLink the average viewers for that show are in their 60s. :eek:

Glad you got RTV. I'm jealous - it looks great and they're adding some new shows soon according to their Facebook page!

It would be interesting to see how all the classics stack up as far as demos- which ones skew the oldest and which ones skew the youngest.

I would guess something like this out of the 10 classic sitcoms they have:

YOUNGEST
- Three's Company (it's the youngest of these shows and is about young people)
- Good Times
- The Brady Bunch
- Leave it to Beaver
- The Andy Griffith Show
- M*A*S*H
- All in the Family
- Sanford and Son
- The Beverly Hillbillies
- Hogan's Heroes
OLDEST

I would guess The Jeffersons would fall somewhere between Aitf and S&S and Green Acres would probably fall between TBH and HH.

Younger people seem to be a lot more familiar with the Norman Lear sitcoms than many of the rural 60s shows (excluding TAGS).

I'd love to see something like Cosby at 8pm, HI at 9pm, MWC at 10pm, and Roseanne at 11pm come September.

That is a great schedule for them. Don't particularly like Cosby or Roseanne but it makes sense with Cosby as the transition, then it sort of gets more adult each hour.

From TheLink regarding Home Improvement:

The last information that I heard about the show was a likely appearance on TV Land in early 2010.

Yes, he's a little off base with some other things, but when it comes to a new show coming, he is usually correct.

Great. Monday is going to be off the clock. Finally, a night that I'll watch and they mess it up :rolleyes:

I can't understand their reasoning for not bring over Home Improvement. It's airing twice a week right now on NAN, and the episodes are just being wasted. This show could really sprice up the PRIME schedule. I just don't understand why TV Land is so against replacing what they have now, which is basically Roseanne.

PRIME from 9pm-12am (when it's supposed to be) of Cosby Show, Home Improvement, then Roseanne would maybe help them. I don't know how it would do though, because it didn't do as well as Cosby and Roseanne did on NAN and they aren't even that hot on TV Land. Then again it may help that demo, I don't know. I don't understand the hold-up either.

Well Spike has taken MWC off it's weekday schedule AGAIN, it's now only on Sunday Mornings. I expect this show to be back on TV Land by September.

Can Spike not bear the thought of just 2 hours of something other than CSI during the day? LOL! As for MWC or any show on TV Land, remember it could come at any time. They don't wait anymore, lol (Roseanne anyone?).

Oh, has anyone noticed the new PRIME logo? I noticed it on the Make My Day ad and a couple others this morning. They have eliminated the red circle, now it's the regular TV Land logo in blue with PRIME beside it. Makes more sense to me to use the regular logo.

What does The new logo look like

What does The new logo look likeIt's the same, they just removed the red circle that says "TV Land" and put the regular logo that you see during the day beside the PRIME part.

Is The Logo on doing Regural Prime as well

I think Spike is even worse than TV Land. CSI all day long? Ugh. They bring back MWC, then after a week add an all-day Friday marathon, which I took to mean the show was doing well. After only one time, it was pulled, and now it's been pulled completely. It's annoying to say the least.

and yes, I wouldn't be surprised if a marathon is scheduled in the next couple of weeks on TV Land. That's how it's initial run in May started anyway, as a weekly marathon.

Where did you all hear that MWC is on hiatus on Spike?

You can check their website. The only time it's airing through late August is Sundays 9-10:30am. The weekday airings were pulled sometime yesterday or this morning.

Is it just me or is TV Land always airing the SAME movies?? Doc Hollywood has already been on once this month I know. It's pathetic. The National Lampoon movies have been run to death. I wonder how many they actually have?

You're definitely right there. I'm shocked they still have the Friday movies, to be honest. Seems to me like they never did too well, especially after that run a couple years back of adding them and removing them at the last minute. They definitely need to get some new movies, though.

Still don't understand why N@N felt the need to air National Lampon's last night when TV Land has been airing it every other month

It actually airs tomorrow but I agree. First of all, it's a very old movie(and it's very adult), two things that make it not belong on N@N, plus TV Land has aired it twice just this month. It seems like TV Land only has a few movies and just runs the same ones over and over. I can't figure out why they have the Monday movies now(as if Friday wasn't too much already).

Sounds like the Friday Movies were getting a lot of viewers which led to an additional movie night

I remember they were airing these same movies in 2006 (remember the disco-style foreign dancers? LOL)....but they were like Pee Wee's Big Adventure, Hoosiers, National Lampoon, Grease, Top Gun, Caddyshack, Thelma and Louise, etc....haven't seen most of those in a long time. Now it's the same few over and over.

THEY ARE ALL OVER THE PLACE WITH THE ANDY GRIFFITH EPISODES!!! Now they're in the color ones!
