Don't quote me on this but I believe that "Chuckles Bites the Dust" isn't in MeTV's regular cycle either. It was skipped during the last cycle. I wasn't watching this time around so I can't confirm it. Oddly enough when WPXI launched MeTV here in Pittsburgh last year they had a "preview" the day before on the main channel where they aired an episode of MASH and MTM which just happened to be the Chuckles episode. Really strange they don't reliably air the 2 most iconic episodes. Considering the senseless nature of 20th Cent. Fox, it wouldn't be surprising to learn their exclusion is part of the syndication deal with MeTV.

During the rerun cycle of season 6 a few weeks ago I watched "Chuckles" so I can confirm it aired on ME here in Ohio anyway. But I have noticed that the shows are not aired in order and many are skipped, so perhaps this time around the final episode will be aired.

The final episode won't be aired, I confirmed it two days ago. Next Tuesday they go back to season 1 after episode 23 of season 7

Unusual! Some rights issue somewhere? Is there a higher asking price for that one episode? (weird, but considering Fox is holding season five of Rhoda hostage for the same reasons, who knows?????)

At least we have everything on DVD now...

Did Hallmark show the finale in its brief airings of MTM?

According to the metvnetwork.com schedule, "The Last Show" will air on 9/23 at 4pm EST during the Me-TV Sunday Showcase. Here's hoping it's accurate!!!

I never got a chance to see MTM on hallmark because it aired at 4am.

I will believe when I see it

BTW, which prints do MeTV and the like use? Do they retain the musical deletions seen on the DVD, or are they original broadcast quality?

Not sure about MTM but i know Bob Newhart looks like original broadcast quality

I will believe when I see it

If you watch Me-TV right now, you will. It's on!!!!

EDIT: Not the original version, though. The Curtain Call closing wasn't included. The regular Season 7 closing aired.

I saw the MTM finale as well today as I've never seen it. I thought it was good. Nice to see Rhoda and Phyllis back as well.

Btw, you probably knew this by watching the episode but the kid who played Ted Baxter's son in the episode, I think, was Cousin Oilver from The Brady Bunch. Also, Mr. Coleman was played by the guy who played Frank Lorenzo in All in the Family.

Yeah it was definitely nice to see the finale in the schedule, albeit somewhat edited and during this MeTV Sunday Showcase (which has thus far been a wasted oppurtunity in my eyes, but that's another story).

That was indeed Cousin Oliver, played by Robbie Rist. He was Ted & Georgette's adopted son for a few episodes during the last couple seasons. However I'll always remember him as the voice of Michelangelo in the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles films that are so near and dear to my heart.

The curtain call is not even on the DVD so i know for a fact it's not in syndication. That's only something that is seen when it airs originally

I don't know what DVDs you got, but I got the curtain call in my Season 7 DVD set. When I bought it from Barnes & nobles, I even put the last disc and played the last few minutes of the final episode to see if it was there and it WAS! I was so happy I got a copy with the original ending. Some copies had it and some copies didn't. You had to be pretty lucky to get a set with the original ending and curtain call.

Oh ok, that was a nice feature for a DVD. But the poster was wondering why the curtain call wasn't on Me-Tv and that's not something that is show in syndication. And for it to be on DVD that is very rare which is great for fans of the show

Me tv just recycled the show again and just like in march ended with the season episode with Ted and georgette show..no finale.

Me-TV needs to get rid of the show because it's ******** to constantly air all the eps except for the last one.

I know this a old topic, but Me-TV is still airing the second to last episode. Every Monday at 10pm, I would watch it, then it was the end of the 7th season, I did not see the last episode, I was mad, but glad to see the 1st season back

does anyone know why?

does anyone know why?

I donno, that's why I have YouTube so I can view the last episode. I just think it's bizarre that it isn't aired
