View Full Version : Eight Is Enough needs to be shown on TV again
Hawkee 03-06-2020, 04:33 AM I find it shocking that ever since it used to air on PAX Eight Is Enough hasn't been seen on TV since then and I think it's time for a channel like Cozi TV to air it again because it was a great sitcom and Eight Is Enough would be a great addition to Cozi TV. Is it because Eight Is Enough doesn't have a hugely popular fanbase like other sitcoms do or is it because few people remember Eight Is Enough but not well enough to air reruns on TV again. With actor Dick Van Patten gone Eight Is Enough deserves more popularity in TV reruns

OH Nuts! 03-06-2020, 08:03 AM I agree! I TOTALLY love the show but I’m grateful I to have some of the eps burned to DVD. I’d be ecstatic if it came to Antenna!
Bonniegirl 03-06-2020, 02:05 PM I would love to see Eight is enough again!:) Hope one of the retro channels picks it up!!;)
lakesgirl 03-06-2020, 05:38 PM I would love it if it would air again on TV. I'm grateful for the DVDs but I really think it would open up a whole new generation to a great show. Frankly, I'm sick of all the Little House on the Prairie,The Waltons and Brady Bunch reruns. I've seen them all a million times. It's time for another family show to get a shot.
Hawkee 03-08-2020, 05:49 AM Eight Is Enough would be a great show to add to CoziTV because it would be a great addition to the lineup and it would replace The Nanny. Or LightTV could add Eight Is Enough to it's lineup because it would do well with all the other reruns of family sitcoms they show. I'm surprised that ever since PAX no longer aired it and replaced it with Supermarket Sweep later on Eight Is Enough hadn't been seen on TV since it ended in 1981 and it needs to be aired on TV again so everyone can watch it

stevea 03-08-2020, 06:17 PM It would fit on Cozi but I lost it. So, selfishly, I'd rather see it on Antenna on MeTV.
But count me in on wanting to see it again!

I don't really see it as an Antenna type show, being they tend to stick to half hour comedy shows ! Being this is not exactly a comedy, more a dramedy , much more a METV OR Cozi type show! Hoping for your sake they would play it on ME, being you don't get Cozi,:) either one would be fine for me! ;)
Personally , a great time IMO would be 10AM, replacing that tired Matlock! Or better yet, either at 7 or 8PM , taking over for that tired MASH or Andy Griffith, but of course that would never happen in a million years! :D It could be the last day on earth after a nuclear war just occurred and somehow MASH would still be showing on METV !! :lol:

I agree with Little House on the Prairie! If Cozi would pick up Eight is enough, it would be fine with me if it replaced Little House ! That has been on there for way too long!! ;)
stevea 03-08-2020, 06:49 PM It's distributed by Warners, so MeTV would probably have easy access to it.
Yep, I'd love to see it replace MASH or Matlock, both beaten to death.

Never got a chance to see since it was never a regular in syndication. It hasnt been in syndication since 2010.
