I agree. That does seem lopsided. TC should definitely have a 12 hour marathon.

NewsRadio is hilarious and I like it better than Three's Company. Maybe the marathon for it should've been longer than the one for NewsRadio though because Three's Company is generally more popular and it had a longer run.

This was Antenna's response to why is Three's company marathon only 6 hours



"We changed the marathon format"

They changed the marathon format for all the shows, not just Three's Company. Ratings for the 12 hour marathons probably dropped by the end and Antenna regretted making them that long. At least Three's Company fans can still see it plenty with a cushy 9PM weeknight hour. There are several shows I like that don't get much of a shot. Wings only night is Sunday. Benson is totally off the schedule until the weekend marathons are over, then it has just an hour on Sunday. Family Ties, Head of the Class, and My Two Dads were totally removed from the schedule. Welcome Back, Kotter is not on weekdays at all, neither is Growing Pains. The Jack Benny Program gets very poor treatment. Bachelor Father and Mr. Belvedere were shows I used to enjoy but don't think Antenna TV is interested in bringing them back. Three's Company fans should be grateful for how well it's been treated compared to many of Antenna TV's shows. A few hours might have been cut from the marathon but it still gets treated like a king. Many shows don't have that luxury.

It's not a dumb answer. That is the truth, the marathon format was changed for all the shows, not just Three's Company.
