A different show every half hour or hour? How 90's. Now shows air back-to-back for literally 10 straight hours. I can't turn on History without seeing Pawn Stars.

I only got to see TVLand while on vacation back then and it was a treat. By the time my cable got it, the magic had gone. I remember the Retro-mercials, "Twip" and many different shows. I think they ran like 12 hours of shows a day and then re-ran the same episodes at night and ran them on the hour instead of starting at strange times. I miss old TV Land. You can get some of those shows on other channels now, but it isn't the same to me.

I miss the old TV Land. I remember weekday afternoons they aired The Hardy Boys /Nancy Drew Mysteries. And on weekends they would air the lesser known short lived shows.

Yep- TV Land briefly aired The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries around 1999, I believe it was. Being a major fan of the both book series and the show itself, I'm always happy to see this show getting air time somewhere. A number of the ME-TV and Antenna TV type channels have aired this show in the last few years. And now finally all 3 seasons are on DVD (even if Season 3 is edited and not in the best shape- at least it's out there in some format.)
:) :cool:

That sounds about right when it aired on TV Land.

I need to pick up the 3rd season still, I guess we should be happy Universal even released it. The first 2 seasons look great though.

I bought "Petticoat Junction" from a seller on ioffer (most, if not all of the episodes were recorded from TV Land) and it reminded me so much of when I used to watch Hooterville Saturday on TV Land. Brought back good memories!

Right now, Amazon has Season 3 down to a little under 20 bucks- and if you want to go with Amazon marketplace sellers, you can get it even cheaper. It's still definitely worth picking up, especially after having waited so long for it.:) :cool: (And by the way, you may already know this, but Shout! Factory actually released Season 3.) Seasons 1 and 2 both look great on DVD, I agree.
Glad to see another fan of the show out there. The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries is always great fun. (I particularly like to watch it on a dark and story night- it always adds to the mood.:) :cool: )

Ohhh, Shout! Factory, well I'm glad they made the cover match the previous 2 seasons.

Yeah, it was one of my favorite shows as a kid, I can remember watching it during it's original run Sunday nights. And it holds up well today.

Yeah- overall, I was very happy with the cover design for Season 3. And though I didn't have the pleasure of watching the show in its original run, I did watch the VHS releases as a kid borrowing them from the library and fell in love with the series from there. (Of course, I was already in love with The Hardy Boys book series- and Nancy Drew to a lesser extent as well.):) :cool:

I read Hardy Boys, but not Nancy Drew. I do like the 1930's Drew movies.

They're a pathetic network. I'd love to see Viacom pull the plug, but they won't.
