View Full Version : TV Land is crumbs!
DJM77 08-29-2013, 08:25 PM I realize that this isn't something that 99% of you don't already know. Has anyone here ever written to them and told them how tremendously horrible their network is, especially when considering how it used to be? I'm curious about what their reaction would be.
MrCleveland 08-29-2013, 08:57 PM Tell us something we DON'T know!
Sorry...I know that TVLand is ****, but since I don't have cable and have MeTV and Antenna TV...I've cared less....
Regulus 08-29-2013, 09:46 PM They used to have their own website, people would send them e-mails telling them how sh:censored:tty their programming was. Before they took down their website it was INFESTED with :mad: :angryfire :spam: :angryfire :mad: Go ahead, write TV Land(fill) (Or Viacom(munism)) but you are basically :horse: :rip:

They still have their website. No, I'm not going to waste my time writing to them. I was just wondering if anyone here had and if so, then what was their response like?

Yes, I contacted them a few years ago and they simply don't care what we think. They told me they planned to continue with their own shows which they have done. They also told me they haven't considered their network to be one for the classic's for quite a while.
Will and Grace Fanatic 08-29-2013, 11:03 PM The fact is their ratings are doing better than ever so they ain't gonna change anything. I can write to CBS on how awful Big Brother is and they won't cancel it because it brings in big ratings. We all just need to learn to deal with it. There are other networks out there that offer older shows for us to watch.
Regulus 08-29-2013, 11:24 PM And lots of the classics are available on DVD. B7 M Stores such as Targhee, Uncle Wally's and Best Buy, On-Line Sites such as The Big River and Deep Discount, and "Trading Sites" like E-Bay, ioffer.com and Sell.com :D

Apparently I didn't express the point of my thread the way that I should've. I'm fully aware that TV Land has been awful for quite a few years now (although nowhere near 15 years). I'll say this one more time. All I wanted to know is if anyone here had written to them about it and if so, then what was their response. Thank you, Patty Duke.

Coffeecup 08-31-2013, 04:56 PM I remember in the mid 1980;s Nick at Nite was great. Then slowly that network fell by the wayside. Now when I zip by it is childrens type shows. So I would pop into TVLand for a while and then the same thing happened. . The classic shows are now on METV, Cozi or THIS tv in this area. I am not too unhappy for I have replacement networks that carry the older shows.
Saw this weekend Sergeant Preston of the Yukon. Not too bad a show. It entertained me. THe only show I do see on TVLand is Hot in Cleveland which is a current show.
Tubehead 08-31-2013, 11:30 PM they used to have message board you had to get 10,00 signatures in week or day to request one show if you say some thing bad about tv land or nick at nite they would delete it I used to post it all the time tv land is just a big joke now I watch me tv or the hub for classic shows I been watching mtv 2 lot lately they been show Moesha Martian the wayn's brother saved by the bell and boy meets world I also like smart guy and Sabrina the teenage witch I stopped watching when they cut off I love Lucy and Sanford and son I some time catch full house if theirs nothing on. stopped watching nick at night when they showed friends rose ann and the nanny

Thank you!!
King of Queens draws nearly one million viewers for midnight showings. People complain about the show on this website, but the fact is, people are watching.
Complaining about TV Land at this point seems rather pointless, considering there is now Antenna and Me-TV. Personally, I like the direction of TV Land, but I'm clearly in the minority.
DJM77 09-01-2013, 11:24 AM Too bad there are still a lot of people who don't get Antenna-TV, Me-TV or any of the other channels dedicated to classic television.
MrCleveland 09-01-2013, 12:13 PM Thank you!!

Agree...It's like talking to a Brick Wall. Viacom is in it for one thing and one thing only...MONEY!
In a way, I would like to see The Disney Channel return to their roots, but It's like Cleveland winning a Championship!
tooltime1996 09-01-2013, 01:15 PM TV LAND IS A PIECE OF S*** BECAUSE THE CLASSIC SITCOMS WERE BEING F***ING REPLACED WITH FOR EX: REALITY SHOWS!!!
Coffeecup 09-01-2013, 04:14 PM Hey last poster.. DO you need to swear to make a point? If you do , you are not making any points with me. You really bother me.
Tubehead 09-02-2013, 04:58 AM if tv land want to show originals or modern show why not still show classic show too? how about one night classic shows one night modern shows? how about you vote? you can vote on the net or call vote for your favorite shows they used to do it i think tv land used to be awesome tv station then when reality programs got popular then the original programing they started going down hill why not show classics modern and original programing that way tv land can be for every one its 24 hour station they could still show some of the classic shows have deferent shows each day not re ruin the same crap over and over aging tv land sucks i hadn't watched nick at night or tv land in ages last time i watched it when home improvement was still on i hadn't watch tv land in three years now theirs nothing on it that interest me i don't like friends or every one loves Ramón or that 70s shows i don't care for their originals Programming i hadn't watch nick at night in 5 t o10 years now last time i watch was family ties family mater home in improvement and Sanford and son was on nick at night
