Hi Everyone,

As I'm sure you know, MeTV in recent years hasn't had much in the way of NEW Acquisitions & Departures sans for "Columbo" being replaced with "Monk."

As I'm sure you see, there are SEVERAL Different Timeslot Changes for existing MeTV shows as well as a slew of New Acquisitions I'd include--among them "Route 66" and "Naked City" to name 2 examples--as well as several returning MeTV favs such as "The Odd Couple" and "Cheers," along with several shows e.g. "Night Court" & "The Facts of Life" being shared with Rewind TV & Laff, respectively.

Whether the REAL MeTV will do a schedule like this with more variety, I'm not 100% Certain, but in any case, Stay Tuned & Happy April Fool's Day.

Much better than the stale crummy schedule they have had for many years that has been mostly unchanged.

IKR? Just something as little as shuffling the timeslots or airing more episodes show X over show Y would do wonders for this channel.

They definitely need to give MASH and Andy Griffith a rest for a while. Or at least move them to a different timeslot. I would like to see Twilight Zone in an earlier timeslot.

Nobody wants to see Matlock at 7 in the morning. Otherwise it looks good although MeTV will never move Mash and Andy Griffith from the 7-8 spots.

Airing Matlock at 7am, and moving Toon In With Me from 7 to 6 are the only things I disliked; both shows are airing too early! Other than that, this is a very good schedule!

I'm not sure if MeTV would have the rights to air programs also airing on Antenna TV, Rewind, or Laff, since these networks are not owned by Weigel.

Thanks for sharing your schedule proposal with the group, and keep up the good work! :)

Don't forget PUNKY BREWSTER. When will anyone ever air that show? I'd like to see it air on Sundays right after THE JETSONS.

Nice list. Good luck convincing Rewind and Laff about sharing shows.

If we're going there, don't forget Small Wonder, too.

I would prefer Batman at 5 to 6pm, flying nun 11am to 12pm. western fatigue has set in Probaly wan change much, not a big fan of happy days or Laverne& Shirley could drop in the heat of the night everything has been re cycled to death last five years, keep the A team like to see air wolf, Carol Burnett has become very vey stale.

Good luck with The Bill Cosby show, they won't bring it back because of Bill Cosby.

I sure wish they would. It’s still one of my favorites.
