According to the Hallmark Drama schedule...

Considering the name of the network, a bit odd, no?

Somewhat "network decay"-ish, if you ask me.

Isn't Hallmark one of the stations that flashes ads on the screen virtually every second? Not to mention cutting several minutes out of the show for more commercials.

It's unwatchable.

It seems weird that The Brady Bunch, Happy Days & Cheers being absorb into Hallmark Drama’s Schedule because those 3 classic shows are sitcoms

Today's blog confirmed it. I wish Cheers was switched with The Golden Girls on Hallmark's main channel. 11PM is a good time for Cheers, but Hallmark Drama is not available in Fort Wayne like the other two Hallmarks. Happy Days deserves better than 1AM, too bad it won't air in afternoons on Hallmark instead of their multitude of original movie crap. Frasier deserves better than 1AM as well, but it has been stuck there for awhile.

The Brady Bunch is probably free for them to air.

I wonder why they are airing on Hallmark Drama. Those shows are not drama shows. Plus, the times they are on leave a lot to be desired. I want to see Happy Days but I don't think I'll stay up to 1am to watch it even though I'm usually up.

Yeah, you got it. Plus they pre-empt their schedule for what seems half the year to show Christmas movies, also loaded with screen ads.

Although an over the air network, Decades now airs Cheers at 11pm. Not that Hallmark couldn't also air it. I think both feTV (cable) and Antenna (over the air) still run Father Knows Best at the same time, every morning.

As for Hallmark Drama, it is available on frndlyTV ($8/month plan includes DVR) or Philo ($20/month plan includes DVR) for those who can't get it on cable.

I was hoping Hallmark would pick up Laverne & Shirley and Facts of Life from Logo. Actually I don't think Logo still airs Facts of Life.

It is odd for the Hallmark Drama to pick up sitcoms. Maybe it will be renamed.

Also, wasn't it that Brady Bunch is missing one season on CBS All Access or Hulu? Anyone record I Love Lucy, or one of the sitcoms from Hallmark and compare if episodes missing from Hulu are run on Hallmark?

Hallmark is a subscription cable channel, while Antenna is an over the air digitnet, so they have different distribution. If I recall, Dish Network, DirecTV and the streaming services don't have Antenna TV.

And if you apply that logic, than Hallmark shouldn't run Frasier, because Cozi runs it. Same with Little House on the Prairie. And The Waltons should be off Hallmark Drama because MeTV airs it.

On a side note, Hallmark edits the hell out of I Love Lucy. I'll be honest, I kind of don't mind the ads and whatnot on Hallmark. I mean there bad but I've seen worse.

The worst part is I Love Lucy getting lousy times on Hallmark. I would much rather see it air 5-7PM instead of 5-7AM. Bury your crappy movies that have been run to death early mornings and late nights instead. Frasier would be preferable afternoons as well, 1-5PM or even half that amount would be fantastic for Frasier.

I wonder why Hallmark Drama is showing Cheers, Happy Days, and The Brady Bunch. Could it be because Hallmark Channel and Hallmark Movies & Mysteries are showing Christmas movies or could it be that Hallmark Drama isn’t going all Christmas this year?

they air Brady Bunch before on the Reg Hallmark channel for awhile then they took it off.


if Laverne & Shirley and Facts of Life still on Logo then Hallmark can't add it since Logo still has rights to it

I guess they didn't do well on Hallmark drama channel plus Hallmark drama channel is still not available to all cable systems yet. and some of the paid streaming providers

I wish they would air Cheers at 11PM on the main Hallmark channel instead of way overplayed The Golden Girls when their Christmas movie barrage ends.

Perhaps after the Holidays they will Return Cheers & Happy Days & The Brady Bunch to Hallmark Channel. They need Sitcoms badly in my opinion.

It's still on METV. Also, PlutoTV is giving this and L&S a special channel.
