View Full Version : Why is this show on Antenna TV?
Plater of Everything 07-08-2017, 11:47 PM Antenna TV is for retro, nostalgic shows. Last time I checked, 1998 is not retro. If they're gonna air it, they should at least save it for between 1 and 5 AM. Then maybe they could air Newhart at midnight instead of 1 AM. Why do they air this?

Yeah I agree!;) It isn't old enough of a show for this channel nor is this show very good anyway !!!:confused:
Plater of Everything 07-09-2017, 02:10 AM I find it okay, but it would be more fitting on Laff, I sure would like to see Step by Step picked up by Antenna TV
It's really considered to be too "new" of a show to be aired on something like Antenna TV anyway.
And I agree. LAFF would be a more fitting choice for Becker and Step By Step would be nice to show.
OH Nuts! 07-09-2017, 09:29 AM Well it certainly isn't on my wish list. And retro to me should be a last airing at least 25 years ago. The one exception to this would be WINGS which I absolutely adore.

I agree, and Wings started in 1990 , so it IS over 25 years ago.;) And Wings is a funny show! :) Becker is a lot newer and kind of blah:p IMO!! ;)
Plater of Everything 07-09-2017, 12:59 PM Pretty soon it's getting moved to Mon-Thur nights and Sunday nights at 4 AM Eastern. Thankfully Wings still stays at 11 though, and Newhart is airing Sunday nights at 11

I don't get Wings here!!! I'm on Pacific time and Wings should air at 8 PM, but at that time Antenna plays local news from 8-9! :(
BigManMike 07-09-2017, 01:32 PM Becker is definitely way too new for Antenna TV. It ended in 2004. That's not retro at all.

I was counting by LAST episode of series airing, which for WINGS is 1997 or 1998 I believe. But it's such an utterly enjoyable and charming show I'd be delighted to watch it on any channel. (Sorry if I had been a llittle unclear in my original post)
And I agree with you on Becker, IMO it's not all that.

Unlucky for you then.

Just like how if Buzzr aired the Anderson, Karn, and O'Hurley eras of Family Feud, those would be too new for them.

Yeah!! Cause I really liked Wings and was hoping to see it when it came on Antenna! Than to see they are playing the news at that time!!:( And it's earlier in the day news too! It's a rebroadcast!! Not even up to the minute news!! :(

I have MeTV in New Hampshire where I live, and I believe that either the Boston channel or New Hampshire channel have news at some point also.
Not sure if it's one or the other or just both.

I can't watch Kolchak the Night Stalker on Sunday nights because my ME-TV station airs the news. It's the only night it's on for an hour. The other nights I miss a half hour of Hogan's Heroes which isn't bad.
As for Becker, It's a good show but it isn't retro.

You're right. It's really not and I have no idea why Becker is even on there.

As far as I know METV here doesn't do that! ;) Seems to always run the scheduled programs! Unless maybe very late/early overnight when I'm not watching!:confused: Here it is Antenna that does their news broadcasts as I posted.:( And COZI TV here puts on some local political stuff sometimes which is really annoying ! Bumped Lassie off before!!! :(

I can only get half of the Cozi channel because the affiliate runs infomercials and religious programs in it's place. I can get it weekday afternoons and late at night after 1 am. Can't get the morning shows or the prime-time shows.
Plater of Everything 07-10-2017, 03:35 PM I get the retro channels here in the Detroit area (Me, Cozi, Antenna, Get, Buzzr, and Decades) full and uncut. Except on inauguration day when WDIV, our MeTV affiliate, had to air their syndicated programs on MeTV.
