View Full Version : MeTV Fall 2021 Schedule? sportman13 08-03-2021, 04:00 PM When will Me tv Schedule come out? Svenfan1234 08-03-2021, 04:20 PM Probably sometime this month. I'm wondering what they'll have on it, too, but I'm doubtful we'll see any major changes in the fall on MeTV. rusty spike 08-03-2021, 04:28 PM I hope that they don't tinker with Mash or Hogan Heroes. That would be downright criminal and I might have to switch the channel. sportman13 08-03-2021, 04:30 PM Svenfan1234 want em to get rid of Hogan Heroes and Green Acres do you think ? TVLegend 08-03-2021, 04:56 PM I hope that they don't tinker with Mash or Hogan Heroes. That would be downright criminal and I might have to switch the channel. Here is the official Fall schedule changes for MeTV: WEEKDAYS: Toon In With Me expands to two hours, replacing both airings of Leave It To Beaver Fan favorite western Maverick joins the weekday lineup, replacing In The Heat Of The Night Two back-to-back airings of Wanted: Dead Or Alive replaces The Waltons An hour of Rawhide replaces the previous Adam-12 hour Everybody’s favorite sitcom M*A*S*H now RULES weeknights, with an additional 6:30|5:30 C airing replacing Happy Days Another hour of Hogan’s Heroes replaces the former Gomer Pyle, Green Acres hour (primetime will definitely be great again with this “awesome” hour) ;) MeTV’s proudly announces that Paid Programming will officially bombard the overnight hours, replacing shows like Highway Patrol, Dragnet, and Petticoat Junction (Enjoy) ;) SATURDAYS: MeTV’s by far best replacement, The Cisco Kid replaces Bugs Bunny and Friends We know all of you couldn’t get enough, so even MORE Andy Griffith joins Saturdays, replaces the MeTV original, Svengoolie, as Svengoolie will soon come to an end SUNDAYS: The MOST underexposed show on MeTV finally makes a comeback, as Gilligan’s Island now expands to FOUR hours, replacing Mama’s Family and The Love Boat An hour of two back-to-back episodes of Collector’s Call replaces The Dick Van Dyke Show, in the BEST way possible, in reruns In other news, MeTV has officially announced that starting sometime in December, to ring in the Christmas spirit, Tuesday nights will now be rebranded as “Originals Night”. That’s right. MeTV will now be host to television’s most “finest” upcoming originals. And don’t worry, fellow couch potatoes, most of the show will be scripted reality ones. Enjoy everybody! :wave: :lol::lol::lol::lol: sportman13 08-03-2021, 05:08 PM TVLegend can you please give me Weeknights seems you have Hogan Heroes on 3 hours weeknights ? TVLegend 08-03-2021, 05:14 PM TVLegend can you please give me Weeknights seems you have Hogan Heroes on 3 hours weeknights ? I was joking. The schedule has yet to be leaked and I only expect minimal changes anyways. sportman13 08-03-2021, 05:17 PM TVLegend want em to get rid of Hogan Heroes and Green Acres do you think ? TVLegend 08-03-2021, 05:29 PM TVLegend want em to get rid of Hogan Heroes and Green Acres do you think ? Green Acres is alright but time for Hogan’s Heroes to get the boot. Such lazy ass scheduling. sportman13 08-03-2021, 05:32 PM TVLegend do you think it will change I do ? Svenfan1234 08-03-2021, 05:47 PM TVLegend do you think it will change I do ? I know I'm not who you directed this at, but I think they'll change it, just very minor changes. I don't think really anything will change on the weekdays, but I wouldn't be surprised if 6-7AM they add another Saturday Morning Cartoons block and maybe another Hanna Barbera show. sportman13 08-03-2021, 05:54 PM Svenfan1234 hope it will change and I do not know if am correct is their going to be a meTV 2 Channel ? Crusinforabrusin2.5 08-03-2021, 06:42 PM My guess is they'll add a new show or two and then shuffle a few shows around to different timeslots and possibly remove a show that is performing poorly. Mash, Hogan's Heroes, and The Andy Griffith Show are certainly not going anywhere unfortunately. Charley Knox 08-03-2021, 07:59 PM The pessimist in me wants to say probably more westerns and 0 changes to the primetime schedule. -Hopefully this is not the case. I'm going to guess that Colombo will eventually get the 8:00pm slot back pushing Monk to one showing at 7:00pm, Gilligan goes back to 3hrs on Sunday, something replaces both Matthew Starr and Nightstalker, Mama's Family goes back to 6:00pm during the week, Best of Sullivan gets the boot, and either Scooby Doo / Johnny Quest will be added to the Saturday or Sunday morning lineup and replace another animated property. On down the line (Winter 22), Toon In With Me gets revamped (Tooney and Bill stay, the other two leave), Collector's Call returns to Sunday night after Columbo, and Golden Girls replaces Green Acres on the weeknight schedule.

Charley Knox 08-03-2021, 08:57 PM Also, I wouldn’t be surprised if another episode of M*A*S*H gets added at 6:30|5:30 C, replacing Happy Days. Now that Disney owns MASH, wouldn't be surprised if they are trying to top channels like METV off to show it. Could be a possible reason why they quit showing it on Sunday. stevea 08-03-2021, 09:24 PM Here is the official Fall schedule changes for MeTV: ...Tuesday nights will now be rebranded as “Originals Night”. That’s right. MeTV will now be host to television’s most “finest” upcoming originals. And don’t worry, fellow couch potatoes, most of the show will be scripted reality ones. Enjoy everybody! :wave: :lol::lol::lol::lol: Just announced, the first reality show: Toony's Undersea Adventures. Expanding on the popularity of Toon In With Me, and bringing it to prime time "Originals Night", Toony takes to his real habitat: the sea. In the first episode, Toony eludes the nets of the "Subway Wild-Caught Tuna Boat." And if that isn't enough, the second reality show: "Antiques Sewed Show." New MeTV employee Betsy Seemed-Stressed tries designing a retro MeTV logo flag. Her nervousness necessitates a stand-by nurse to handle things when her thimble slips. Stay tuned for details on the third hour. :lol: sportman13 08-03-2021, 09:45 PM I do not know if am correct is their going to be a meTV 2 Channel ? stevea 08-03-2021, 09:51 PM In the third Tuesday hour, MeTV recognized they are not airing enough Andy. So as not to disappoint the millions of "Hogan" fans who might miss an episode of its unprecedented 50th MeTV cycle, one Andy will be shown at 10, and Hogan will air at its normal 10:30 time. The title of the special will be "Classic Andy in Color!" MeTV has selected the best of the best! In the first episode, the Taylors are flustered when Dolly, a previously-unseen horse that hauled a milk-delivery carriage, won't eat. AND, as a bonus, we have leaked details of the second episode: a Gomer Pyle episode MeTV has unearthed with ALMOST exactly the same plot!!! Still craving more? MeTV will announce a contest, where the viewer who identifies the most duplicate Andy/Gomer scripts will win a tour of the MeTV studios! Future episodes will delve deeply into Taylor and friend visits--some of the excitement: Andy visits Gomer. Goober visits Gomer. Aunt Bee visits Gomer. Opie runs away and visits Gomer.

How could you miss this info: After the success of renowned MeTV original, Collector’s Call, MeTV has announced that a spinoff is in the works, but get this, as a scripted sitcom. The show will star, Lisa Whelchel, Leah Remini, Amanda Bearse, Roseanne Barr, and Stacey Dash. The show is about five female friends who sell…sex! Talk about coherent and family friendly. The show will be rated TV-Y7. In other news, MeTV has also recently announced that another “hot” original is in the works. This one is another “irresistible, beloved, never loathed, obscure” reality series, entitled “Living with Trump”. The title speaks for itself. Join The Trump Family as they go through everyday life: the “slanderous” media, crybaby “commies”, sloppy Joe and TrAnSgEnDeR Camillia Henderson, or whatever her name is, and the especially “rigged” election that everyone went out and screamed “riggy” for. The show will premiere December 9, at 9:00|8:00 C. MeTV is the home of the classics! :wave: :lol::lol::lol: TVLegend 08-03-2021, 09:56 PM I do not know if am correct is their going to be a meTV 2 Channel ?

TVLegend 08-03-2021, 10:05 PM I do not know if am correct is their going to be a meTV 2 Channel ? Look at my response above. Merry24 08-04-2021, 12:27 AM Here are my suggestions.. I wonder if Me TV will be adding The Wonder Years WeekNights at 6pm. With the New Wonder Years airring on ABC Wednesday’s at 8:30pm. Starting September 22, I would think Me TV would capitalize on that. Reguarding WeekNights at 10pm-11pm. Monday’s Bob Newhart & Newhart Tuesday’s Mary Tyler Moore & Laverne & Shirley Wednesday’s Lucy Loves Me TV with I Love Lucy Thursday’s Leave It To Beaver & Donna Reed Show Friday’s The Little Rasicals Friday’s from 7pm-10pm Toon In With Me TV Saturday’s at 11pm-2AM some weird Shows like The Addams Family & My Favorite Martian & The Brady Bunch Variety Hour & The Monkees!! Sunday’s bring back Sunday Me TV Showcase 5pm. space1999 08-04-2021, 11:33 AM We haven't had a significant schedule change since Summer/Fall 2017. So don't expect much. I could see the usual weekday 5 - 6pm hours getting new shows and Sunday nights. Historically it seems like only these timeslots get new shows anyway. Addams Family gets taken off and we get back The Flintstones at 6. Maybe replace Adam-12 with a new action drama show, The Rockford Files plz. As for Sunday nights, I'm hoping Monk does poor enough so they either axe the show entirely from the channel or at least move Columbo back to 8pm and shift Monk to 7pm only. The show is just too new for the channel. Other realistic changes I would like is taking off Alfred Hitchock Presents, give us another action drama show for late nights as a lead-in to Mannix-Cannon-Barnaby Jones block. Now that Disney owns MASH, wouldn't be surprised if they are trying to top channels like METV off to show it. Could be a possible reason why they quit showing it on Sunday. I didn't know about this. Maybe Disney recalls the broadcasting rights for MASH and MeTV will finally need to air a different show on the channel :lol: I do not know if am correct is their going to be a meTV 2 Channel ? MeTV 2 channel is already out. It's called MeTV Plus and so far its only available in the Chicago area. stevea 08-04-2021, 01:29 PM I agree, it's a possibility MeTV could lose the MASH contract. Too bad LOL! But seriously, if it's big money to Disney, probably not. MeTV has had problems 5-7 (afternoon/evening). I really doubt the Flintstones comes back (at 6), considering they sequentially dumped it. I agree The Addams Family goes, and I also agree with previous threads that it was just temporary and probably a cheap place holder. I'd like to see Mama's Family 2X, but they've already tried that at 6. I think they make minor changes in the morning, since it seems animation in the morning is a hit for them: 5:30 The Flintstones (replaces Dragnet) 6:00 The Flintstones (replaces Dragnet) 6:30 Toon In With Me (expanded to 90 minutes, with additional cartoons) (6:30 - 7 replaces My Three Sons) sportman13 08-04-2021, 03:19 PM When will Me tv Schedule come out please give a real answer ? Merry24 08-04-2021, 11:40 PM My guess is the Schedule changes will start Labor Day if any changes at all. Reguarding when the 4th Quarter Schedule will be announced,I’m not sure. sportman13 08-04-2021, 11:44 PM Merry24 the Schedule changes will start Labor Day when dose come out here ?

TWO hours of Toon In With Me sounded almost too good to be true!!!!! :lol: Also, I couldn't imagine Svengoolie ending its run, since it's a cornerstone of MeTV. It also sounded like MeTV was about to overdose on Westerns as well! TVLegend 08-06-2021, 07:13 PM TVLegend dose snowpeck get releases of other Networks Schedules ?

Today we can see Sept. 6th's schedule on the website and no changes. Merry24 08-23-2021, 07:25 PM True! It usually comes out Labor Day. I understand about dont fix if it is broken BUT there is so many Classic TV shows that aren’t being shown for the ones that have been shown for a while in the same time slots. In addition it would be nice to Leave It To Beaver go from 8AM to 10pm ATLEAST it’s a different choice. I will hand it to Classic NICK at NITE & TVLand & Antenna TV they tryed to offer different choices every month and or quarter. auburntiger 08-23-2021, 08:52 PM Based on previous years, Labor Day is usually when MeTV's fall schedule starts.

Merry24 08-25-2021, 12:16 PM According to Me TV, those shows Mary Tyler Moore Show & Bob Newhart Show gets many requests to be shown but the ratings do not justify its airings as opposed to MASH & Hogans Heroes & Gomer Pyle USMC & Green Acres were the ratings are a huge success. Although sister network Decades that does air Mary Tyler Moore Show & Bob Newhart Show that does air on Decades it does pretty well in the ratings. Me TV will show Mary Tyler Moore Show & Bob Newhart Show during its special Holiday stunt A Very Merry Me TV some years. SarahBellum 08-25-2021, 02:05 PM Perhaps they could air them on the weekend. Merry24 08-25-2021, 03:09 PM According to Me TV the Westerns & Sy-Fy Saturday Nights ratings are outstanding. Sunday’s Gilligan’s Island can justify ratings on Sunday’s and even that is starting to slip.They have tryed ALOT of Sitcoms Sunday’s and non of them work except Gilligan’s Island. merlinjones 08-25-2021, 03:23 PM What happened to Mary Tyler Moore, Bob Newhart, Cheers, Taxi - does Me TV no longer have the rights to those shows?

Snowpeck, come on buddy, post SOMETHING! stevea 08-28-2021, 01:54 PM The Addams Family surprises me. I'd have bet that would go--it seems so much like a placeholder for something new, with there only being two seasons. MA 08-28-2021, 01:57 PM I'd be very surprised if The Addams Family stayed. stevea 08-28-2021, 02:00 PM Yep. But the key is how it's doing. If it's doing better than the Flintstones did, I'll bet they'd be hesitant to take it off. Especially considering all the changes they've made between 5 and 7 pm in the past few years. MA 08-28-2021, 02:22 PM It will be interesting to see if there are any changes when the fall schedule comes out. Charley Knox 08-28-2021, 03:19 PM Afraid most of their moves and schedule changes will now be geared more towards modern programming. stevea 08-28-2021, 04:49 PM Let's hope not.

Charley Knox 08-29-2021, 11:09 AM I know primetime is a touchy subject, but there are a lot of little things they could do by just shifting shows around to help improve the lineup without having to acquire a lot of new shows. Just an example below Sunday: 6:00-8:00am Save By The Bell (Replaces the lame Powers of Matthew State and still meets the EI requirement) 8:00-9:00am Beverly Hillbillies / Petticoat Junction (or Addams Family / My Three Sons) 9:00-10:30 (The Flintstones) 10:30 (The Jetsons) 11:00-12:00 The Scooby Doo Mysteries (One with the guest stars) 12:00-2:00 The Brady Brunch 2:00-5:00 Gilligan's Three Hour Tour (Ditch Mama's Family) 5:00-7:00 The Love Boat Two Hour Cruise 7:00-8:00 Monk 8:00-10:00 Columbo 10:00 The Carol Burnett Show 10:30 I Love Lucy 11:00-12:00 The Dick Van Dyke Show 12:00 The Honeymooners Merry24 08-29-2021, 07:40 PM Charley Knox, I agree totally with this!

JR1 09-03-2021, 03:54 PM I still wonder how much better one show can do than another, given that MeTV's ratings were pretty low at last check. Guess all we can go by is MeTV keeping a program on consistently, as I haven't seen any ratings numbers in recent times. In any event, these days, Mama's Family is the only show I watch regularly, and that's just once a week. And usually Collector's Call and The Honeymooners when they aired 10-10:30 p.m. Sundays.

They started airing in 2014, so we still have awhile to go. After they lost Leave it to Beaver to Antenna TV a few years ago, they are probably making longer contracts. Not that I want it to go, but I still think The Addams Family isn't a long-term commitment. BigManMike 09-19-2021, 05:22 PM Isn't MASH and Andy Griffith on a 10 year contract?

SarahBellum 10-08-2021, 04:24 PM Isn't MASH and Andy Griffith on a 10 year contract? They started airing in 2014, so we still have awhile to go. Since they only air TAGS seasons 1-5, they cycle through all episodes in about 3 months. Each TAGS episode has probably aired at least 30 times since they started in 2014. They could move MASH and TAGS to a different time slot. BigManMike 10-08-2021, 06:26 PM Since they only air TAGS seasons 1-5, they cycle through all episodes in about 3 months. Each TAGS episode has probably aired at least 30 times since they started in 2014. They could move MASH and TAGS to a different time slot. That’s so dumb what they do with Andy Griffith. They have the rights to the entire series so they need to show it in its entirety from start to finish. Yes I agree the black and white episodes with Barney are the best ones but the color ones from 6-8 are still part of the series as well and really aren’t as bad as some people make them out to be and should be shown with the rest of the series. merlinjones 10-08-2021, 07:47 PM If they had only one episode of Andy Griffith and MASH per day instead of a double run it would help open some slots (and help from cycling too much). Andy could be paired with Gomer Pyle. MASH could be paired with Hogan (in the later slot). Green Acres could be paired with Beverly Hillbillies, Petticoat, or Addams Family. And then you would have a prime hour to fill with something freshly recycled. stevea 10-08-2021, 09:57 PM With TAGS MeTV could just slip a color episode in here and there--pick a night or two. I can just see them sitting in their board room worrying about ratings. Yes, they have the rights to all the episodes. And they probably paid quite a bit, too. Charley Knox 10-09-2021, 11:06 AM I really think the color TAGS episodes damaged the shows legacy. It was so bad, the 80's reunion movie felt like a much needed apology. Even during the last month of Mayberry event, METV would only show a few select color episodes. A couple of years back, METV gave the color episodes the 7:00am time slot to no success. Personally speaking, if I see a color episode of Andy Griffith on, I usually turn the channel. Like others, I wish they would just show 1 episode and pair it up with Homer Pyle. They need to add a new sitcom or two to the primetime schedule. Minus dumb butt Westerns, just wish I knew what classic shows people would watch. I mean the general audience has stuck their nose up at The Odd Couple, The Mary Tyler Moore, The Bob Newhart Show, I Love Lucy, WKRP and etc. TKMetal 10-09-2021, 04:04 PM MeTV isn't changing their schedule much because their ratings have been good and growing (someone earlier in this thread said rating are bad and that maybe be the case with 18-49 demo or whatever but overall they are regularly beating many cable channels in total viewers) with what they've been doing and also history has shown that their viewers don't react well to change. space1999 10-09-2021, 04:26 PM MeTV isn't changing their schedule much because their ratings have been good and growing (someone earlier in this thread said rating are bad and that maybe be the case with 18-49 demo or whatever but overall they are regularly beating many cable channels in total viewers) with what they've been doing and also history has shown that their viewers don't react well to change. Could you care to elaborate on the last sentence? You wouldn't believe how many comments I scroll through on the website and MeTV's facebook, with fans requesting [this show] to air. One of the reasons why I like watching MeTV, was the different shows that use to rotate on the channel. I know its all ratings metrics now but retro television appeal comes from the schedule changes. At least for me. BigManMike 10-09-2021, 05:15 PM This whole ratings business is a joke. It makes no sense to use this method when it’s reruns of the same shows over and over again. It makes sense for new current shows that only air one episode a week and it’s a new episode for the most part except during Christmas, spring, and summer breaks. For example, Young Sheldon at 8 on CBS does well there so it stays and it’s not constantly repeating the same episodes all the time. But MeTV has become so stale just running the same programming year after year after year. I don’t see how people don’t get tired of it. Is the target audience people who don’t remember what episodes they’ve already seen? TVLegend 10-09-2021, 05:23 PM Could you care to elaborate on the last sentence? You wouldn't believe how many comments I scroll through on the website and MeTV's facebook, with fans requesting [this show] to air. One of the reasons why I like watching MeTV, was the different shows that use to rotate on the channel. I know its all ratings metrics now but retro television appeal comes from the schedule changes. At least for me. Exactly. One year it might be Kojak, Ironside, and Cannon, and then the next it might be Hawaii Five-O, Happy Days, and Laverne & Shirley. That’s what made it unique. Now I don’t even see the point at schedule changes if it’s just to pick at very few slots throughout the schedule. I was hoping they’d add Night Court, but knowing them, it would probably air during the overnight hours for only one episode. stevea 10-09-2021, 05:40 PM Unfortunately I think they're afraid to rock the ratings boat. So they are totally locked in. Geez how long has Gunsmoke been on there? If it were to go away tune to TV Land. It's been on there for like a quarter century. And Hogan's been on MeTV so long there are probably fans who can recite whole scripts. cp2k 10-11-2021, 09:33 AM Does anyone happen to know if MeTV still shows "Mayberry RFD" as an alternate to the Andy Griffith Show in any markets?

I notice many of these networks carry old/rare/less popular shows I love, but then when we get access to those networks, they revamp their schedule—probably to add more popular but already heavily shown fare now that they have a wider audience. I have many examples, but I will mention two. When H&I finally got added to DISH, they dropped Police Story. And not all of that is available on DVD. I was trying to watch Men into Space on our local Comet affiliate, but they were operating at low power, and my large, powered, outdoor antenna could not pull it in well. As soon as Comet got added to DISH and I had a reliable signal, they dropped Men into Space.

Robbie Some shows get taken off because channels no longer have the broadcasting rights to it or its ratings are poor. Police Story I feel like is the one exception, since that show when it did air on H&I, had a warning message about its violence. Which was the only show that had it. Maybe they took it off due to being too violent for modern times you know with the political climate regarding police. Cheers and Bob Newhart didn't do good in the Last Laughs block on MeTV and that block ultimately got cut all together from the schedule due to low ratings. As for Men in Space, Comet TV always rotates its schedule, so maybe it will return in the future. Its just a coincidence this all happened to you.

Maybe they took it off due to being too violent for modern times you know with the political climate regarding police. Cheers and Bob Newhart didn't do good in the Last Laughs block on MeTV and that block ultimately got cut all together from the schedule due to low ratings. As for Men in Space, Comet TV always rotates its schedule, so maybe it will return in the future. Its just a coincidence this all happened to you. When MANY of us viewers complained on the MeTV Facebook page when they dropped Last Laughs, we were told they dropped those shows due to rights issues, not ratings. But they moved Cheers and Bob Newhart and MTM and Taxi to Decades, where they have been ever since they dropped them from MeTV. Are they doing well there? Is it OK to keep them on there if they’re not doing well on Decades? Is it because Decades does not have a wider market penetration that it’s OK? Like I said, I’d trade all the Weigel stations I get now for Decades. I love their lineup. It seems like only the stations that have less market penetration (and that we can’t get in our area) can air the shows I like. Plus, they brought The Honeymooners back on MeTV Sunday nights, ostensibly to pair with The Flintstones, but they dropped the late Sunday night airing of The Flintstones but kept The Honeymooners on—probably my least favorite from the old Last Laughs block, because I find it more sad than funny. I liked the seventies and eighties shows in the Last Laughs block—it was nice to have something funny on Sunday nights. I hate all the dreary mysteries that are on Sunday nights now. At least The Andy Griffith Show is back on Sunday nights, but I think that’s just temporary until they find another dreary mystery to put on. Did they drop Police Story because of that, or because H&I got added to DISH, where it had a larger audience? That’s when the stuff I like starts getting dropped. Comet told me they would probably not be bringing Men into Space back. I think now that they have a wider market penetration, they ditched the old rare shows. getTV did the same. For years I could not watch Batman or Star Trek on MeTV on Saturday nights because they were preempted on our local affiliate for local news and talk—programs they were already airing on the primary channel at the same time they were airing them on the MeTV secondary channel. As soon as MeTV got added to DISH, I got DISH because I was sick of all the local affiliate preemptions. Right away, MeTV dropped Batman, and the local affiliate suddenly stopped all the preemptions. It would be several more years before H&I got added to DISH and I could finally see Batman, although I would’ve enjoyed watching Batman more in the evenngs when it was on MeTV if it hadn’t been preempted here. Mornings on H&I are much harder for me. Now H&I has reduced Batman to just Sundays. I wouldn’t be surprised it if gets dropped altogether soon. Yes, lots of “coincidences.” I can cite many more.

A Very Merry Me TV only airs Christmas episodes in its Regular time slots. They could of done what Me TV does during the Summer during the Holiday Season and run a Special Regular Schedule for the Holidays.

They could of done what Me TV does during the Summer during the Holiday Season and run a Special Regular Schedule for the Holidays. Last year MeTV did air Thanksgiving and Christmas episodes of WKRP, Mary Tyler Moore, Bob Newhart, Taxi, Cheers, and Newhart on Sunday afternoons during November and December. It was WONDERFUL. I was SO glad to see those shows again, most of which air now only on Decades, which we do not get. This year, it just seems to be Christmas episodes of The Love Boat.

Must have seen RobbieG in the area... :lol::lol::lol: Decades has the lineup I would love to watch. They show Ed Sullivan episodes that so far MeTV has not shown, and I fear never will show. Plus there are two shots a day to watch Sullivan on Decades. Watching Cheers from 11 p.m. to midnight would be fantastic for me. Bob Newhart in the afternoon.... And I’d record Dark Shadows at 5 a.m. But, following my theory that these channels change their lineup substantially when they get a wider audience, often showing only the more popular shows that have already been shown a lot elsewhere (look at H&I adding Walker), I fear if we ever get Decades on a local channel here or on DISH, the lineup will be different—Ed Sullivan will be gone for sure. I’m not sure if it’s because: (1) The channels change their lineup to appeal to the new wider audience (2) The channels change their lineup because the wider audience begins demanding “Why don’t you show X and Y and Z?” (3) With the wider market penetration, the channels have to drop some shows because of rights or local conflict issues (4) With a wider market bringing in more ad revenue, the channel can afford to add more popular shows We temporarily lost Antenna TV when our local affiliate switched to Court TV. I called the station to see if another station would be adding Antenna TV. The lady I talked to said she didn’t know whch one but felt sure one of them would. I told her, “The last thing we need is more courtroom shows on TV.” :D Ironically, the local digital subchannel that dropped Abtenna TV several years ago (which another station did pick up) has now dropped Court TV for Antenna TV’s new sister station, Rewind TV. Not sure how we got that right at launch with my “curse” operating. :D Of course, Rewind TV isn’t really showing anything that I haven’t seen in recent years on Antenna TV or elsewhere. Decades is the one showing a few rareties. Robbie |
