The late Sunday night schedule is just very strange: there's a dozen best comedy Emmys among the seven shows listed above, every one is a legitimate classic, and yet they're limited to one inconvenient showing a week. All I can figure is that they're close to maxing out their rights to show them or something, but why push them deeper and deeper into Sunday night?
I feel the same way. It's already bad enough as it is but now they're pushing it back an hour. I can remember when MeTV used to show these shows five times a week in primetime but now they're just being disrespected. Maybe they want to give the new show a decent slot, but I've never heard of the Night Stalker and according to Wikipedia it only lasted 20 episodes.

Night Stalker was like a mystery/horror fusion, so I guess they figure it fits in with Columbo as a mystery. That leaves MASH between the two mystery shows, although I think that's sometimes preempted when they have a 2-hour Columbo.

What turned out to be the pilot for the Night Stalker was a pretty sensational TV movie back in the early 70s.

I used to be into The Night Stalker. I even have the book about the series.

212975

I actually like the Sunday night changes. I never got into The Honeymooners, so I'll probably tune in starting at 11:30 with The Odd Couple up until Taxi or Get Smart goes off.

cant wait to see the hole schedule

I guess that means Leave it to Beaver is leaving Antenna? :confused:

I guess that means Leave it to Beaver is leaving Antenna? :confused:

Yep, along with a couple of other shows expiring. Just my speculation, but I strongly believe shows like Small Wonder, Mr. Belvedere, Newhart & Evening Shade will be expiring in January.

Aww! :( I like McHale's Navy! ;) I didn't watch it that much,but when I did I really like it! ;) Leave it to Beaver too, but that isn't leaving TV just moving! But 8AM !!! I liked it on Antenna at 10AM. That was a better time slot for me! Oh well, such is life ! :crazy:

So it sounds like McHale's Navy is probably going to Cozi given that its Universal and Hitchcock probably Cozi as well.

Interesting because those are all Universal shows. Guess they are no longer working with Universal.

Probably yes. It'll probably still be on Sundays at 3pm.

I didn't feel like typing the whole thing out. Just fill in the gaps with the current schedule and you'll have the whole thing. Columbo will still be on Sunday nights.

Anyone have updates for Me-Network Winter Schedule

Look on the first page of the thread.

Svenfan1234 will their be a different 8 pm and 10 pm no sitcoms for weekdays

Glad to see Ironside back on as the DVD sets for that program are very expensive and I only have the first two seasons on DVD.

Is theit going to be a different 8 pm and 10 pm no sitcoms for weekdays

Is theit going to be a different 8 pm and 10 pm no sitcoms for weekdays
No. Every time slot not listed in my first post will be the same as Fall.

Looking for schedule updates for Adult swim Cartoon Network Boomerang or any digital network updates like Laff Cozi or any other ones

I see that they're getting the half-hour GUNSMOKE episodes from STARZ/ENCORE WESTERNS; I wonder if that means STARZ/ENCORE WESTERNS will start showing the hour-long black-and-white ones again.

And since they're moving THE HONEYMOONERS to a different time slot, I hope this means they're going to stop showing "the classic 39" over and over and over and over.....

Do not like Hogan's Heroes at 10 pm will their be new shows in january at 10 pm

Do not like Hogan's Heroes at 10 pm will their be new shows in january at 10 pm

Nothing Changes from 10pm to 12am Time

I would love for Me-TV to start showing the "lost" episodes of 'The Honeymooners'. I think it's been at least 4 years since they last aired them.

So nothing is going to change Sunday nights even though Columbo is leaving January 1st???

and also the color ones from the 60s.

Don't understand why they'd put Macgyver on between Andy Griffith and Hogan's heroes

and also the color ones from the 60s.

What were you referencing?

Ah damn my local fox affiliate preempts ME-TV's 2am timeslot with a repeat of the morning news except for Fridays so that will be the only time i get to watch Mannix.Bummer

Yayy to Maverick joining I hadn't seen it since it aired on TV Land back in the late 90s or early 2000s apart from seeing it a bit on Encore Westerns at a Motel. And i knew 77 Sunset Strip would eventually show up on ME TV after being shown on Decades, it's gonna be awesome watching Macgver and it's good that it's finally be added to their original line-up outside of Decades

Good to see 77 Sunset Strip back on TV.For some reason I never saw that show but always wanted to.

prime time schedule during the week is awful

I just wish we would get Honeymooners here, it is one of many they pre-empt for infomercials

Look like MeTV will be showing the old ABC 1989 Columbo Versions starting January 8

as Metv has a Promo on it website announce all new Cases for Columbo

while the old 1971 NBC Version of Columbo will be on CozITV

Good thing i have the first 4 seasons of the 70s columbo on dvd

Was getting real excited for Mannix (saw it during its super brief run on Cloo)...until I found out it's at 2am.
Half hour Gunsmoke should be an interesting watch, even though I'm not a fan of westerns. Everybody seems to say that the show lost a lot of its focus when it switched to the hour format.

STARZ/ENCORE WESTERNS has been showing the half-hour GUNSMOKE shows for a couple years.

Sorry about that I must had wrong link in my clip board i'll fix that

Thanks Snowpeck for provide the link.

And Saturdays are still lousy as usual.

I'm upset about Petticoat Junction being off the schedule.

I still like the Sunday schedule 12-5pm.

Same here actually.

My MeTV station finally got all of it's audio problems fixed and no longer show school closing banners on the screen at times.

After all that, MeTV takes Petticoat Junction off.....

They still refuse to air two episodes of Carol Burnett......

I think I am under a Sinclair curse.

My MeTV is done by Sinclair Broadcast Group.

From Jan 2015 until Feb 2016 there was audio issues where the audio would drop out missing around 1 second of audio randomly.

Then Feb 2016-Jul 2016 the audio turned to staticy/choppy like you were hearing it through a drive-thru speaker.

Now that all audio issues are fixed, Sinclair is using American Sports Network to air games that wiped out Carol Burnett twice for me.

I've been having issues since Jan 2015, what's waiting until March 2017 and Jul 2017 for re-airs of the preempted ones? LoL

But overall MeTV's 2017 schedule does not show anything exciting.

Antenna TV will be on my DVR more often with 227 & Joey Bishop Show.

I am not liking the change of Gilligan & Happy Days at all. While I love those other Sunday sitcoms that will be on, more than likely they won't be on here in Buffalo as they love to show so many infomercials.:( :(

I wish we could all go back to the days of MeTV and other subchannels airing just whatever the affiliated network aired.

While seeing folks on this forum, some other forums, and just randomly seeing TV schedules across the country, it's a shame how badly MeTV and some Antenna TV's are treated.

Some areas have MeTV slapped together with MyNetworkTV and don't even air Carol Burnett at all.

Others have news reruns and infomercials.

Some Antenna TV's seem to only broadcast part of the day and another network or local programming airs the other times.

It seems like back in 2009 you more so didn't have all of this pre-empted and mashups.

My MeTV is owned by Sinclair and they just keep adding more and more American Sports Net games on.

I seriously wish they'd make a completely separate subchannel for it all.

Who turns to MeTV to watch sports anyway? They don't even put ads up only put it in the TV Guide.

I so wish Cox Television did not sell the station to Sinclair. Cox never did preempting of any kind on MeTV.

The Sunday schedule we don't get Love Boat, The Honeymooners or The Odd Couple, three shows I would definitely watch if we did.
When Carol Burnett & friends started we got it but then they dumped it for The King of Queens which airs on many channels here.

They randomly preempt Carol Burnett and Friends here.

Normally they show it but sometimes they will randomly play a basketball or hockey game on.

I know I don't follow sports but I didn't realize people played so many sports so late until almost midnight.

Me-TV has fallen off

I agree. The main reason Me-Tv has "fallen off" for me is their schedule. Too many dramas and westerns on the schedule. And their choices in sitcoms aren't that great either. Because of this , I usually stick to DVDs or Antenna Tv

I agree. I typically only watch "Mama's Family" on Weeknights, "Svengoolie" on Saturday nights and the Sunday Funnies (Happy Days, Laverne & Shirley, I Love Lucy & The Love Boat) but overall yeah not too exciting.

Yup the channel can't compete with Antenna TV

If they would mix the schedule up more , maybe I'd watch. Instead of the same tired shows( I Love Lucy , Gunsmoke , Happy Days ) they could possibly air shows like Medical Center , Love , American Style , Here's Lucy and others.

It would also help if METV would play the shows on the Sunday night lineup more often. Shows like Taxi , Mary Tyler Moore , or Sgt. Bilko. It'd be better than the same tired shows again and again

Yeah. The thing is that their schedule is pulling in big ratings for them so they won't change. And for Sunday, I think Kolchack: The Night Stalker is a welcome addition to Sunday nights.

Don't really care for either. Antenna has better shows but crunches credits and has poor scheduling. MeTV doesn't crunch credits but doesn't have as many good shows and has poor scheduling. I wish Get Smart was on 5 days a week in prime time instead of burying it late Sunday/early Monday. For me, I prefer Laff. Decent scheduling and programs and no credit crunches. I mostly watch DVDs and Kodi though.

Pardon me , but what is it with you and credit crunching? Who cares about if a TV shows credits are crunched?

Minor issue in my opinion. I think TV show traders are annoyed by it but the average person who watches the show doesn't care

I wish they would follow this schedule. If they can't put these shows on during the week at least put them on in primetime on Sunday when people aren't asleep/going to bed.

I myself do find the credit crunching of Antenna TV annoying as well especially as somebody who DVRs and converts/keeps the episodes without commercials.

It's a Catch-22 for me though.

Antenna TV has a habit now of airing shows you can't even get home Home Media it seems.

Mr. Belvedere Season 5 and 6 did not seem to have any DVD release last I looked.

The Joey Bishop Show I know only has Season 2 on DVD as I looked everywhere.

Also 227 seems to only have Season 1 on DVD not Seasons 2-5.

So even though it frustrates me, I feel I have no choice if I want to have copies of the above mentioned shows and probably other examples later as Antenna TV said to one Facebook user that they are trying to get lesser known stuff which tends to mean less chance of DVD releases.

well crunched credits is better than no credits

well crunched credits is better than no credits

Absolutely.

I will add that crunched credits is better than no show at all.

Seeing as how some folks here and elsewhere have Antenna TV affiliates that only broadcast part of Antenna TV's schedule, some people literally do see no show at times.

I'm glad some of the sunday night schedule got changed also it has been the same since 2015. so it's good to have a TV series in the sunday night block with Columbo

Unfortunately I won't be able to watch The Night Stalker.

I guess even though my MeTV station will at times show sports games that wipe out it's programming I did get a "Holiday Gift".

It seems ever since MeTV switched to 16:9 and/or the station did some upgrades/improvements to their weather alert/school closings display on the main channel of NBC, I no longer have weather/school banners on MeTV.

I could be wrong but I think maybe they had the banners since the channel was NBC Weather Plus then Retro TV now MeTV.

It was frustrating when you want to keep your recordings but you had like half-inch thick banners at the bottom of your screen.

I know I could have lived with it, but I don't really need a record of what schools had delays or closings the day I recorded the episode.

CHiPs has been on at 6/5c from September 2014 to December 2015 & then at 5/4c from January 2016 to Early September 2016. Now it's on at 4/3c(the same timeslot that Adam 12 & Emergency previously hold respectively).

Three shows I watch all the time we don't get here anymore, Happy Days, Gilligan & Laverne ugh! Maybe another channel will show them.:(

METV seems to be going down hill in my opinion. Every time they add a show , its more than likely a drama , not a sitcom. And the sitcoms they do air , with few exceptions , are not very good. That's why I stick to Antenna TV. I mainly like sitcoms so that's why I enjoy Antenna TV more

me tv so boring now I don't even watch it anymore sad use be good

Just watch them on sundays it's the same as being on weeknights

You hit the nail right on the head with this one.

My local station had RTV replaced by MeTV.

I seen Antenna TV back in 2011 in NYC when it started.

Even though I semi-enjoyed MeTV, I instantly went crazy over Antenna TV, it aired so many things I liked, Burns & Allen, Jack Benny, Norman Lear stuff, etc.
Now Carson, Joey Bishop, and 227.

I must prefer Comedy/Sitcoms to Drama/Westerns.

We had THIS for many years but oddly it took until Apr 2015 for us to get Antenna TV here.

I kept bugging my cable co to add it because I can't get the local station's signal being in a valley.

I never laid eyes on it until May 10th, 2015.

A quick side note, I hate the 16:9 that MeTV went with.

Antenna TV seems to be 16:9 but leaves the video 4:3 inside so it's easy to use video software to save the video. MeTV seems to crop off parts of the video making no recovery possible of those parts.

If I'm able to watch, this is basically all that interests me at a decent/watchable time:

Monday-Friday:
10am: Matlock
6-7pm: Mama's Family
11pm: Carol Burnett & Friends


Saturday: Nothing.


Sunday:
12-1pm: The Brady Bunch
3pm: Happy Days
3:30pm: Laverne & Shirley
4-5pm: I Love Lucy

6-7pm: Mama's Family
