How about bringing back the sitcoms that previously aired on Sunday nights such as The Honeymooners, The Odd Couple, Cheers, The Bob Newhart Show, The Mary Tyler Moore Show and Taxi?

I know they're probably going to go with a WKRP-theme for the Summer of Me, and hopefully add a new sitcom or two and do what they did last year and have sitcoms from 4-7PM again. I'd also like to see Sundays change a bit, bring shows like Our Miss Brooks, Petticoat Junction, My Three Sons and Donna Reed to Sunday afternoons, and add something like Eight is Enough instead of The Love Boat repeatedly! I'd also love to see Remington Steele come back at 11am and replace the horrid Diagnosis Murder.

Why not just have the same shows they had on last year at the same times? That was an outstanding group of series they showed: Happy Days, The Brady Bunch, Gilligan's Island, Andy Griffith, Leave It To Beaver. It doesn't get much better!

Eight is Enough would be a good addition, especially if it would replace the Love Boat. It's been on long enough.

On weeknights what'll probably happen is:

4:00 Gilligan's Island
4:30 The Brady Bunch
5:00 Happy Days
5:30 Laverne and Shirley
6:00 Mama's Family
6:30 ALF
7:00 MASH
8:00 Andy Griffith
9:00 Gomer
9:30 WKRP
10:00 Hogan and His Homos
11:00 Carol Burnett and Her Friends

I HATE how Hogan and MASH both get an hour, that's why I'm an Antenna TV guy now.

well, first thing they need to do is drop MASH, it's on 4 or 5 other channels and they've been showing it for years (I think ever since they started-and always in the same time slot!!!) Andd before ME TV started showing it it was seen in syndication for YEARS!!!

Yes, that, and also get rid of Hogan’s Heroes. It’s been on way too long in the same time slot too.

I wish they would just replicate Summer of Me 2012. They had about 14 different shows airing in primetime in certain blocks every night.

Mary Tyler Moore, Dick Van Dyke, Bob Newhart, The Honeymooners, Beverly Hillbillies, Green Acres, Get Smart, Batman, Odd Couple, etc.

2012 was like the Golden Age of MeTV. A lot of those shows they don't even have on the schedule anymore, though I think they still have the rights.

They don't have the rights to Dick Van Dyke anymore.

This summer, i would like to see the entire METV schedule to be similar to the blend of 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 & 2017 METV summer schedules combined.

Something that hasn't aired on the retro channels in a while. I've mentioned this several times, but in December 2015 they aired Christmas-related episodes of different shows, many of which I hadn't seen in years.

Bosom Buddies on the Summer of Me a few years ago was a nice pickup for that reason. I'd be okay with WKRP getting a night. Maybe some other short-lived shows from the early-to-mid-80s.
