Cut back from the original noon-midnight times. The Partridge Family is 12-7PM. And they picked one of the worst episodes as part of it, the season 4 premiere with the awful singer. 7PM-12AM the old lineup returns. Three's Company is 11AM-6PM (11AM is its normal hour). The old 6PM-midnight lineup returns. I am so glad that didn't happen with Wings today. It is too bad for Sundays that Benson doesn't also return in the 5PM hour. And I was looking forward to the full Family Ties marathon since that show is off the regular schedule now.

I’m glad they did a long WINGS marathon. Too bad my reception was so bad.

Well, I don’t really need the marathons. Also the reception on my TV can be spotty. Antenna is probably 98% of what I watch on my TV. And the occasional DVD.

Hi Bonnie, I think it should be on Antenna website. They usually show their schedules for at least a week in advance.

Just checked. It is not part of the marathon next Saturday.

Also, starting 5/2 it will be shortened by another hour from 12-6pm.

The Facts of Life marathon will likely not be shortened because they would've aired it as the regular Mother's Day marathon.

Surprisingly, The 12pm/11am-12am/11pm binge marathon format didn’t last long on Antenna TV
