One station that's gone totally downhill is Reelz. They used to have a nice sitcom block of Wings, Coach, Cheers, and 3rd Rock from the Sun. They even aired complete closing credits for shows and the full version of the Cheers theme song. Then they dropped 3rd Rock, and the others followed suit later. Now all that airs on Reelz is reality/talk shows and movies. :(

I have a few, but one would be...Boomerang!

They played old H-B Shows and I liked the format sooooo much, I got it for Dish Network.

I have ALL 48 Loopy de Loop cartoons because of it, but I wish that they'd play older H-B Shows like "Ruff and Reddy", "Top Cat", and "Secret Squirrel"...just to name a few.

But...they now play newer shows! Why can't Cartoon Network make a station called Cartoon Cartoons Network and leave Boomerang Alone?!

I just hate it when stations become cash cows!

Both Boomerang and Cartoon Network seemed to have really strayed from their original purpose. If you're going to be called "Cartoon Network"- then air cartoons! (I can maybe see only very minimal exceptions- for instance, live action puppet shows like "The Muppet Show" don't count as cartoons- but I would probably let that slide on there- probably because I'm such a fan of puppets and The Muppets in particular.)
As for Boomerang- it started out with the purpose of playing classic cartoons, primarily from the 1950s-1980s or so...(I can maybe see a very few '90s series slipping in there)- but it should primarily be from the earlier decades of television.

I dont mind her but how did the cancelled Marie show get on Reelz? I dont even watch Reelz anymore. The only time I did was for 3rd Rock.

In a way, I agree about ABC Family. I mean I really only watch the Gilmore Girls but some of the programming they show, I really dont think is for the family.

What else can you say that hasnt already been said?
