I know I have mentioned this in the past,but I wish that I had the Hallmark Channel on my basic cable system(Charter Communications)! What I was wondering is this how can I get my cable system to get the Hallmark Channel?? Wow! What programs I'm missing, "Perry Mason","My Three Sons", "Facts Of Life", the westerns on Saturday afternoons,"Mork and Mindy", "Hogan's Heroes",need I say more!! Man, I hope that they can get "One Day At A Time" and "Different Strokes" on there soon!!! What about "All In The Family", "Alice", "The Waltons", "The Dukes Of Hazzard" and "Archie Bunker's Place"!! They've ruined TV Land, let's hope that they don't ruin Hallmark Channel!!! Hallmark, Hallmark, Yay, Hallmark!!!! Hallmark All The Way!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)

IMO TV Land hasn't been ruined.By picking up rare shows to air like Gloria,Grady and Sunday Dinner (Even if they are a One-Time- Only Deal!) They are getting a Crapload of new viewers!

I agree, TV Land hasn't been ruined, but what bugs me SO much about this channel, is the MANY airings of certain shows. I am really hoping Diff'rent Strokes finds a home on TV Land, but that probably will never happen (TNN dumped the show as of September 3rd). Maybe down the line, Hallmark will pick it up, after all, they did pick up DS' spinoff, Facts of Life.

Anyway, TV Land is still a good channel, they could improve it A LOT, but I still find it enjoyable. I am a little ticked Dennis and Donna are gone (I know why they are gone, but still, lol).

I agree too I think Tvland is just playing around right now with thedifferent shows.. I am sure they will have a grounded schedule soon! I like the primetime line up though at night.. and i am VERY happy now with my cable company because I do have hallmark.YAY hehe.

I feel TV Land is coming out a little more, for example airing all these rare and un-common sitcoms, which brings more viewers to their television. I'm glad TV Land is picking one-year wonders up, in their Box-sets; Sunday Bests; and TV Land KitSchen. Hallmark is giving us Satisfaction by picking some of best shows, (The Facts of Life, The Lucy Show, Mork and Mindy, Hogan's Heroes, etc.) But Nick-at-Nite has yet to improve by adding better time-slots and some more shows, and then I think it will be fine.

TV Land seems to have cut down on multiple airings. They're still there for certain series, but not as much and not for as many shows (though we still get 4 hours of Hillbillies with strange looking cars erm). I think they're tinkering around with their schedule to see what gets ratings and what doesn't for the Screen Gems shows, maybe they'll digitalize more episodes for those series?

On Hallmark, I think they've gotten pretty good. I've liked it since before it was Hallmark, when it aired "ALF", "Doogie Howser", "Happy Days", and "My Three Sons". I like the shows they have now, especially "The Facts of Life" and "Hart to Hart" and I like most of the other shows they air. I can't wait until they get "Mork & Mindy" and "The Lucy Show".

Wow, Doogie Howser? I had no idea Odyssy(or however you spell it) aired that. I have a feeling "My Three Sons" will be leaving, because it will only air one hour a day, instead of two, which is usually a bad sign for shows. Notice how on TV Land, a lot of shows moved to early timeslots (Maude, Chico & the Man) and then they left (or it could just be a coincidence, lol). I am waiting very patiently for Hallmark to add "The Lucy Show" and "Mork and Mindy" but it probably won't be until Jan. 2003 when "Bewitched" and "I Dream of Jeannie" leave.

I don't think TV Land has messed up either. However, if we were talking about Nick at Nite.........
