I asked Antenna TV if they could add Dave's World and The John Larroquette Show to the schedule, and this is what they said.

Mikaela,

We do not have the rights to the shows you mentioned, but they are on our wish list.
Thanks,
Antenna TV

Man, this just ****** me off so much. Who has the rights to this then?

Dave's World hasn't been on nationally since the old PAX network aired it in the 90's. TJLS since USA aired it.

How long ago for the TJLS?

That’s Antenna TV’s response to anyone who request other shows. Just that automated response and nothing specific. I am so done with that channel.

I’ve seen people request shows all the time on their Facebook page and that’s exactly what they always respond with.

In my opinion though, the response didn't look automated.

I'm not sure. Probably 15 or 16 years ago. It's been a long time.

They once replied to me that they didn't have access to a missing episode of Burns and Allen, but they scheduled it anyway. When it came time to actually air it, they substituted another episode. It's nice they reply, but you really can't trust what they say, or like the ones above, they just give a canned response.

You should ask them to add something else, (say, Gimme A Break, as one example), and see what they say.

I definitely want to see Dave's World, between Harry Anderson starring and being based on Dave Barry. Sadly it has not been syndicated at all since I got cable over a decade ago. Although if you don't have Antenna TV any more, wouldn't you want a different network airing your shows?

I sent emails to Cozi TV and Decades.

I Never watched Dave's World that much but it was a very agreeable sitcom. I'd like to see it again.

Not to get off track but Antenna TV's website isn't good. Compare it to ME-TV and it's no contest. ME-TV got quizzes and interesting facts and stories
