I don't know. I remember I was real disappointed. Nick at Nite begin airing it regularly in March 2001, then took it off the main schedule in October 2001but still aired it on some occasions on Sunday nights sometimes, then they took it off for good in January 2002. One month later, TNN picked it up in February 2002 and aired it through the end of August 2002. Then, it was nowhere to be found for 6 years until BET got it in February 2008 and aired it until August 2008, about the same amount of time TNN had it. Then it was gone again until Antenna TV started showing it in January 2013.

Yeah Nick at Nite picked up Diff'rent Strokes back in march of 2001 it did really good to the point in the summer of 2001 around june to july they had 4 back to back episodes of Diff'rent Strokes every night at around 9 o clock then a few months later it was taken off the air around early 2002 for no good reason,i did tape nearly every episode of Diff'rent Strokes from Nick at Nite back in 2001 but i somehow lost the tapes lol

It would be nice for The Hub to start airing DS and more 80's sitcoms, as it is I'm tired of Happy Days, Laverne & Shirley, Mork & Mindy.

The HUB needs to air Emmanuel Lewis sitcom Webster thats a friendly family show that would be perfect on that channel.
