Those of you who are not happy with MeTV not making many changes to their schedule will be even more displeased with Antenna TV. For the spring of 2019, the only - repeat, the only - programming change they have made is replacing "Small Wonder" with "Gimme A Break" Sundays at 12 and 12:30 pm, which for me is a big downgrade. Otherwise, everything remains the same.

Antenna TV - Spring 2019 (https://antennatv.tv/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Antenna_TV_2ndQ_2019.pdf)

I wonder if Antenna TV will Return to its Saturday Summer Marathons like they did a couple Summers back.

I would love to see New 1950’s & 1960’s & 1970’s & 1980’s Shows added.

I would also love to see the Weekday Morning Shows spread through the Schedule instead of just in a block. ( Although I love the Saturday Night-Early Sunday morning block).

Example perhaps they can have

5AM-6AM Mchale’s Navy

9AM-10AM Father Knows Best

10AM-11AM Hazel

12pm-1pm Partridge Family

3pm-4pm I Dream Of Jeannie

6pm-7pm Dennis the Menace

9pm-10pm Bewitched

12AM-1AM Burns And Allen

1AM-2AM Jack Benny

3AM-4AM Joey Bishop

Thanks for this. The website is still showing the current schedule and I was wondering what they had in store for spring....and it's apparently nothing! I guess we'll have to wait till July for any changes.

I have to say my Antenna TV viewing has dropped drastically since the 2019 change. They must still have the viewers though since the schedule isn't changing. Oh well. Many people must like it.

My Suggestion for the 3rd Quarter Schedule is...

Every. Single. Crunched. Minute. ;) :lol: :wave:

I’d watch too if I got the channel. I love Nell!

If Antenna TV were to change their schedule without removing anything:
5AM-3:30PM would remain unchanged
3:30PM Head of the Class replacing Soap
4:30PM 2nd episode of Benson replacing 227
5:30PM 2nd episode of 227 replacing Gimme a Break!
12:00AM 2 episodes of Becker replacing Coach and Murphy Brown
1:00AM 2 episodes of Wings replacing Becker
2:00AM 2 episodes of Family Ties replacing Growing Pains at 2AM
3:00AM Coach
3:30AM Gimme a Break!
4:00AM Murphy Brown
4:30AM Dear John

On Sundays, I would replace Coach at 7PM with Wings and at 11:30PM & 12AM with Dear John. etc...

I’d watch too if I got the channel. I love Nell!

Nell's funny ! And I LOVE Jonathan!! :eyes:

This is what I would schedule after Memorial Day if they aren't adding new shows for awhile. Small Wonder remains off the lineup as I am guessing its rights expire in April.

I don't think Murphy Brown is returning to a decent timeslot anytime soon because of 1.) the revival (crapvival.) 2.) It was before Johnny Carson until recently so it must've bombed and made Johnny go with it. That's my theory on why Johnny Carson's earlier and Murphy later. Remember that Antenna literally spent millions of dollars on the Johnny Carson deal so they're not going to take kindly to any show that's not performing well before/after Johnny Carson.

I agree the Murphy Brown revival was crap but those episodes are not part of Antenna's package. Fortunately they just have the original run from the 80s and 90s. Also, I did not have it lead directly into Johnny Carson like before. Barney Miller remains its lead-in on weeknights, and Sundays there are three hours separating Murphy and Johnny.

True, you don't have it before Johnny, but having it anywhere before say 12AM is not where they're going to put it now. They don't want it anymore, they're just going to let it die at this point until its rights expire. I don't think it has anything to do with the revival, I think it has everything to do with Johnny though. They have even gone as far as to remove Murphy Brown from promos and they have removed the Candice Bergen episode of Johnny Carson from rotation permanently. I don't see it on their episode guide anymore.

Are they getting new episodes of Johnny Carson by any chance and removing some of the episodes they have already played a lot? His ratings have probably dropped from when they were new episodes every day in 2016, and now the 90 minute episodes no longer encore.

Not 100% sure, but if you look at their episode guide on their website, the Candice Bergen episode is not listed which aired back in 2017 but never again. It's probably due to the fact that the ratings for Murphy Brown were probably unbelievably low. I think they're adding in new episodes here and there but I think they're picking the ones that they think the viewers will most likely tune in to see.

I still have a season pass for Johnny Carson on my Tivo. The most recent recording is from September. Nothing is scheduled to record through the end of the month.

Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions for a good antenna to purchase to watch this channel? Unfortunately my cable provider doesn't carry it :(

Some funny quips by Johnny Carson tonight considering recent events: If all of you (the studio audience) give me a dollar, I can buy 20th Century Fox. He also mentioned Wells Fargo bank having financial problems (I don't remember the exact comment).

According to Antenna TV Facebook on May 12, 2019 Sunday Antenna TV will air a Hazel Marathon. It’s called Maid for the day Mother’s Day Marathon 5AM-10pm.

I'd rather watch that marathon than the stupid Gimme a Spring Break Marathon anyday.

Well I for one enjoyed the Gimme a Break marathon last week. :p

Hazel is good, but only up until the Baxters left and before those 2 impostors and their little girl came along. It was just too weird that the parents would just up and abandon their kid like that and it ruins the show.

They should've just had them killed off instead.

Good for you :p

I probably won't watch much of the Hazel marathon because it is Mother's Day.

I now have recorded and saved on my DVR the 19 Paul Lynde Show episodes that Antenna TV has been running. Would be great if they could acquire the 7 episodes still missing and run those as well, but as of right now chances of that happening seem fairly slim. Who else besides me has been recording these?

According to Antenna TV Facebook May 19, Sunday Tim Conway Tribute with Mchale’s Navy Marathon from 9AM-10pm. Than Tim Conway will guess on Johnny Carson at 10pm-11:30pm. Than at 11:30pm-12:30AM 2 Coach episodes with Tim Conway.

Does anybody have any idea if Antenna TV is changing their schedule for the summer like Me-TV is?

Sad to learn about Tim Conway passing away, although I'm not fond of his type of comedy and I don't think he's funny. Having said that, I'd be curious to see episodes of his short lived 1960's sitcom Rango.

Does anybody have any idea if Antenna TV is changing their schedule for the summer like Me-TV is?

Good question. Last year they changed it around July.

They really need to shake their schedule up IMO.

It's been the same schedule since January. And they haven't added any new shows since last July(!) which would be What's Happening Now, The Paul Lynde Show, Lotsa Luck, and Archie Bunker's Place.

Yeah, their schedule is starting to get kind of stale. They used to add tons of new programs around January.

They do need put some of their stuff they've been showing for a while on hiatus and add some other new stuff. I have a feeling they have long term contracts on several of their shows like Barney Miller for example. I think they've had Barney Miller on their schedule for several years now.

Some shows that haven't aired anywhere (diginet or cable) for a long time include Who's the Boss, Perfect Strangers, The Courtship of Eddie's Father, December Bride, and C.P.O. Sharkey. If Antenna TV could get the rights to those 5 shows they could have a schedule like this that featured new additions from several decades.

Cozi TV has the rights to "My Favorite Martian". They just recently added it back to their schedule.

You're right about all of the other shows you mentioned. It would be great to see them in Antenna TV's lineup.

I had never heard of that show so I looked it up. It sounds very interesting. Plus Antenna TV needs to add some more of those older shows IMO.
