----------------CTS (Crossroads Television Systems) ----------------


---Effective Sept. 2, 2002


MON---FRI


1:30 Family Ties
4pm Mr. Belvedere
4:30 Happy Days
5pm 7th Heaven
6pm The Hogan Family
6:30 Growing Pains
7pm The Wonder Years

Again, nothing great here except for "Happy Days" unless you like your shows dull with a side order of boring. "Family Affair" and "Flying Nun" are gone for now but they might come back another time, like "Family Ties" has. Hopefully, things will pick up in the New Year. I won't be watching CTS for a while if they stick to garbage like this. I'll be looking for more changes, and soon I hope!

I'd like to be the first to offer sympathy to all you lovely canadians re: the boring fall schedules for those two networks. I hope you get some better stuff soon. :)

Of course, you guys have the comedy network, and there's more good stuff on that channel than the big 4 american networks put together, so ... i dont feel THAT bad.
