View Full Version : Summer of MeTV 2024
Charles Knox 04-21-2024, 02:28 AM Looks like a month of Mayberry is returning to METV starting May 5th.
4:00pm Remind Me
Return to Mayberry
"Reprising their roles in the original 'Andy Griffith Show,' Andy returns to Mayberry to run again for sheriff, only to discover his former deputy, Barney, has also entered the race. "
6:00pm Remind Me
The Danny Thomas Show
DANNY MEETS ANDY GRIFFITH
"Danny is arrested by Sheriff Andy Taylor for going through a stop sign in the town of Mayberry."
Funnily, MeTV has been using the "Summer of Me" tag in promo spots since last fall- throughout winer and spring. :D
AMackII 04-23-2024, 07:48 PM Other then that, The Summer of Me should’ve not be mentioned on air from Early September thru Mid May more often. Normally, they always say “Today/Tonight on MeTV” and etc during the Summer of Me’s off-season from Early September thru Mid-Late May to be exact.
stevea 04-23-2024, 08:49 PM Summer of Me used to kind of an event, with hosts such as the late Dawn Wells, and Barry Williams.
Last year all they did was add an extra hour of MASH.
BigManMike 04-23-2024, 10:50 PM It’s pretty lame now. Just goes to show that MeTV has really gone downhill.
Merry24 04-24-2024, 10:46 AM I think Me TV is a good channel but I feel like they should change to different time slots and change out shows and return the shows atleast every quarter.
Another thought is during the Summer Of Me & A Very Merry Me TV they could really get creative with there schedules and than Return to there Regular line ups in September & in January.

I agree with you about a Very METV. They should take a cue from the Hallmark cahannel and a few other similar themed family channels and just break away from the normal programming and go all in for the holiday with shows movies and holiday themed animated specials that you can't find on the other networks.
iloveoldtvshows 05-01-2024, 03:46 PM They show Return to Mayberry every May. They have not changed their schedule in a long time, I would suggest to cut down on the two hour MASH and update to different shows every month, Drop the two hour Mash and shows like Happy Days . Laverne and Shirley in that time slot and stop showing two hours of MASH. It is getting old

I totally agree about MASH. It’s been on way too long but it does well in ratings and that’s the way they schedule things, which I think is not a good format for a channel completely made up of reruns. They do have Happy Days and Laverne and Shirley on their sister network Catchy. They had an hour of Laverne and Shirley but as of January took away a half hour to add a half hour of Happy Days. I wish they could have made a way to show an hour of both.
MeTV shows two hours of MASH and Catchy shows two hours of Full House. If anything deserves two hours, it should be My Three Sons, because it lasted so long and has so many episodes. One half hour a day is not enough for a show with that many episodes.
Merry24 05-02-2024, 12:41 PM Any word on what the Summer Of Me Schedule is?
iloveoldtvshows 05-02-2024, 04:18 PM They need to change up the Summer schedule and drop MASH for the Summer
Charles Knox 05-13-2024, 12:08 AM Starting May 27th, The Flintstones will replace My Three Sons in the 6:30am slot. Don't know if this is permanent or something temporary as part of a METV Toons promotion.
*edit* I checked the future schedule of Catchy Comedy to see if My Three Sons was moving over to that channel, and I don't see it on thier schedule, yet.
Someone like Snowpeck maybe knows what. Is going on in June?
.
Merry24 05-13-2024, 12:55 PM Sadly got all ready to watch The Return to Mayberry but unfortunately due to streaming they aired 4 episodes of The Andy Griffith Show with them going to Hollywood instead.
Reguarding The Flintstones move perhaps it’s there way to start advertising Me Toons channel.
I hope My Three Sons can move to Sunday’s and or to Catchy Comedy. Or maybe this is the first step it’s moving to Fe TV?
Like you said Snowpeck will know the full details soon.

Personally, I would keep My Three Sons at 6am and move both airings of Dragnet to the 5 and 5:30 slot and drop Highway Patrol from the schedule.

MeTV shows two hours of MASH and Catchy shows two hours of Full House. If anything deserves two hours, it should be My Three Sons, because it lasted so long and has so many episodes. One half hour a day is not enough for a show with that many episodes.
FETV cable channel is adding my three sons later this year and my three sons air on saturdays evening on metv -plus

iloveoldtvshows 05-24-2024, 10:18 AM When I suggested METV do a weekday cartoons like they have on Saturday I did not mean for them to have a host. I just mean to have a weekday hour of cartoons, Not to have a host for the whole hour
Merry24 05-24-2024, 02:19 PM What date does The Summer Of Me TV Start in 2024?
What date does The Summer Of Me TV End in 2024?
iloveoldtvshows 05-25-2024, 03:09 PM I have not heard or seen anything about that yet

Seeing the Summer Of ME promos during Svengoolie.
rvoyttbots 05-28-2024, 09:10 PM Bill Leff of TOON IN WITH ME has been announcing THE FLINTSTONES will be on weekly, not sure if just before TOON IN WITH ME M-F or just Saturday mornings
Charles Knox 05-28-2024, 09:29 PM Bill Leff of TOON IN WITH ME has been announcing THE FLINTSTONES will be on weekly, not sure if just before TOON IN WITH ME M-F or just Saturday mornings
Just Monday through Friday at 6:30am and 1hour and a half every Sunday at 10:00am.
rvoyttbots 05-31-2024, 04:40 PM The announcer on ME-TV this morning says the Summer of ME has already begun
Are there any other changes besides THE FLINTSTONES at 6:30 AM replacing MY THREE SONS M-F?
Time to deep six DRAGNET & HIGHWAY PATROL
Replace them with SEA HUNT & WHIRLYBIRDS

No other changes so far.
Dragnet as shown now has too few episodes to support 10 episodes per week.
MikeLutton 05-31-2024, 09:51 PM i heard a rumor on here that WKRP In Cincinnati coming to Me-tv again is that true
BigManMike 05-31-2024, 10:02 PM i heard a rumor on here that WKRP In Cincinnati coming to Me-tv again is that true
That would be great but unfortunately it won’t be on the streaming version because of the stupid music licensing.
MikeLutton 05-31-2024, 10:40 PM figures oh well i got the box set thank goodness i was getting excited for a while there
Charles Knox 05-31-2024, 11:40 PM That would be great but unfortunately it won’t be on the streaming version because of the stupid music licensing.
Just about all the music has been replaced in the syndicated episodes, so you think it would almost be okay for a streaming network.
franciis 06-04-2024, 11:48 PM Personally, I would keep My Three Sons at 6am and move both airings of Dragnet to the 5 and 5:30 slot and drop Highway Patrol from the schedule.
Yeah,I would Keep MY 3 Sons at 6 am and at 5 & 5 30 slot....add tv series /The State Trooper/Three season show or add tv series (Rescue 8 with Jim Davis of Dallas tv series star) or add tv series (Stoney Burke) with jack Lord/Hawaii 5-0 star.
Charles Knox 06-30-2024, 08:30 AM The Powers Of Matthew Star is replacing Thunderbirds, next Sunday (7/7/24) at 6:00am. If you are one of the few who has METV Toons and don't mind staying up late to fuel nightmares, you can watch it along with all the other Gerry Anderson puppet-mation shows.
Charles Knox 07-22-2024, 09:01 AM A third episode of Adam12 replaces the Flintstones in the 6:30am slot starting Monday, August 5th.
Should have kept My Three Sons.
stevea 07-22-2024, 09:37 AM It appears the only place The Flintstones works on MeTV is on Sunday morning.
Agree on Sons.
space1999 07-22-2024, 07:23 PM A third episode of Adam12 replaces the Flintstones in the 6:30am slot starting Monday, August 5th.

Oof thats rough for Flintstones. One of the quickest changes for a Metv timeslot at 2 months. I wonder if Adam-12 was put there to go with Dragnet or they plan on replacing Adam-12's evening hour with something else in the Fall and its phasing the show out.
My Three Sons should be on Catchy Comedy if MeTV doesn't want to air it. FETV acquired the rights to it as well and its coming soon. So at least one channel will treat it well.

I agree about My Three Sons. It should go to Catchy. And it needs four episodes a day considering the amount of episodes it has. One episode a day doesn’t cut it for a show with 380 episodes. It’s on the obscure MeTV Plus+ with just one episode Saturday afternoons. That is totally unacceptable for a show with that many episodes.
rvoyttbots 07-22-2024, 10:12 PM There are only 13 episodes of THE POWERS OF MATTHEW STAR & ME-TV ran them to death before. I`ll never watch it.
Makes sense THE FLINTSTONES were dropped so soon. It is on the new ME-TV TOONS network

The Flintstones must have been a real bomb. They have dumped it this week, and put Adam 12 in its place, without even changing the TV Guide.

They usually don't pull a show that fast, unless it was losing sponsors. Might would have been a better idea if they had used the Summer as a trial run of Toon In With ME in a 90minute format. With the longer format, they could have ran longer interviews with celebrities/ special guests, added three more cartoons and extended the library with the Magoo and newly restored Hanna-Barbara shorts.
This could also be a sign that they maybe need to cut the three episodes of the Flintstones down to one on Sunday morning and start adding other Hanna-Barbara shows to the 2hr block.

22 episodes not 13.
