I wrote Hallmarkchannel.com 2 days ago and thanked them, and asked them if the show was only going to be shown in the summer, as a temporary thing.

This is their EXACT response:
Thank you for taking the time to share your kind words of support. The
series, "Facts of Life" has become a permanent part of the Hallmark
schedule.
Enjoy :-D

AHHHHHHH!!! AWESOME!!!I'm totally excited...I have to go to DG and buy tapes!!!

Oh yea, if you want to e-mail them:
http://hallmarkchannel.com/tv/about/contact.asp

They get back quick, because they actually care about viewer feedback.

What is DG? :lol:

Dollar General......the tapes are cheaper than Wal-MArt...

Anyway...yea..I e-mailed them...before you posted the link, but, yea....thanks for posting it...I told them about how I've been trying to call N@N like..FOREVER to get them to air it, so I'm really glad they're picking it up! Also, I asked if they would air "controversial" episodes like, "Breaking Point" and "Fear Strikes Back"(I think those were the two I listed...don't remember...)

Yes I'm excited too & Hallmark ch. seems like a good channel. Hey we have DG too, but I don't know if they have tapes & we used to have FD & I bet they would've had tapes but they're not here anymore (sigh) oh well :crazy:

ok, now I feel like the idiot...what's FD??(I'll probably kick myself when I hear it, cause I probably know what it is..)

okay im officially done coming here. this has just killed me........................... shoot me now. throw me in a lake please.

FD is Family Dollar. I got one of those tapes for the fandimoum and it said 6hrs of tape but it only recorded four!!!:mad: I was mad but thats ok because FOL is coming back on TV. Ill miss the 1st episode of the day because my sister has to watch Sabrina The Teenage Witch. SO I only get one FOL eppie a day instead of two-but I'm trying to get her into FOL and away from Sabrina.

Your dad should get dishnetwork cause they even sent us certificates for free satellite dishes to give to people. If I would have know, I would have asked on the message boards to see if anybody wanted one! I'm gonna see if I can get some more certificates. I'm soo glad I have the Hallmark channel now!:p

I bought tapes there once and they worked okay the first time but when I went back to watch it the tape got all messed up(like the actual tape inside) I know that was confusing but that's the best I can explain it.

On yeah, and I'm SO excited and do you think they will show the episodes in order?

Don't go near that lake, Karli! Don't forget that you can come over here and watch FOL until your dad gets Direct TV! Hehe. :) And even after he gets it, you can still come over here to watch FOL if you want! :D You aren't a goner! In fact, all of you other FOL/Hallmark channel-deprived people can come over and watch FOL here! LOL! Come on over! We can have a FOL party! :D

I would like to have one! Do you go to Dish Network to get it? I might try that. I am still trying to convince my mother to get cable or satellite, But maybe I will have to move in with my brother.

Lizzie......You and I have something in common. We both shop at Dollar General. I didn't buy my tapes there because the VCR would eat them up, then I bought some at Wal-Mart and they didn't do that.

I have a Jacuzzi Suite underground or one with a vibrating bed underground. So which will it be?

Hmmm, that is a toughy. I think I'll take the Jacuzzi Suite in case I feel the need to 'go jump in a lake' because I miss an episode or something. Plus, vibrating beds can be pretty scary :lookaroun

I e-mailed them and said:

Thank you SOOOOOOOOOOO much for putting The Facts of Life on
your channel! I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Then they wrote back and said:

You're welcome........and thank you for taking the time to share your
enthusiastic
support :-)

Wow, they write back quick..It took Tv Land 2 weeks to write back to me, just to say that Facts of Life didn't do well on Nick at Nite "at all".:mad:

Bull. I'd like to tell N@N and TVLand what they can do with their current scheduling...but I won't. I'll head to my hole before I saw something I'll later regret...ugh.

Wow! Where did all of those stairs come from? Anyways, we have a patient on the line! *pops in tape* Oh, no! The tapes were labeled incorrectly! This is "Brian and Sylvia!" Get it out of here! Ahh! It's contaminating the operation room! It could harm the patient! We don't have much time!

Jo? I haven't thought of her in... :confused: Yes, I remember her.
