I hate that CATM is not on...on the weekend!!! I could live without the marathons unless TVLand would be kind enough to give us another CATM marathon then I'll watch. It's too long to wait for more Freddie then we are gonna be stuck with the dreaded Freddie-less depressing episodes. I am bummed. I need a Freddie fix.

Hi, dream...er ...

I sympathize!

But if it makes you feel any better, I just got back from a week out of town to discover that while I was gone my cable company switched TVLand to another channel so instead of having taped 5 CATM episodes, I got 2 CATM episodes and 3 1/2 hour sessions of a scrambled premium movie channel.

THEN I found out that our cable company is in the process of going digital. They've made TVLand a digital channel, but at my house we still have the old cable boxes, so right now we don't get TVLand at all! AND the cable company won't be able to install digital boxes until next Thursday, by which time I'm afraid all the CATMs with Freddie will have run. I have been quite unhappy this weekend!

Thanks for letting me use your discussion thread to gripe!

Wow, no TVLAND. That's bad! Since I have an old C-band satellite dish & can't find a descrambler for it, about all I can get is TVLAND mainly & some satellite feeds & the home shopping channels & C-SPAN & all the religious channels. Our local cable system not only doesn't have service on the part of our road here in the county that we live on (But they have cable in the nearby subdivisions on our road-- go figure) but last time I chekced they didn't have TVLAND either! I'd love to have the paid channels but I can't complain too bad cuz I LOVE TVLAND.

Good luck!

Cheryl,

I think I would rather they get rid of just about all the other channels and put back TVLand. Hopefully, our problem will be resolved by the end of this week.

Does anyone know if they're going to rerun CATM shows?

Yeah sometimes the weekends blow when the marathon on of a show you dont really care for. This weekend isnt that bad i enjoy Gomer Pyle that is another show besides CATM that TVLand has gotten me into.
