WOO HOO 2003!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111

January 1st, 2003 on TV Land:
8:30AM E/P
Chico and the Man "Pilot" Chico meets the "the man" and plans to stay and help run the garage.

TV Land loses the rights to the show after February, so this might be one of the last airings. Christmas episode and the pilot could be the last airings, unless an episode airs in Jan or Feb in a Box Set or special.

Well that is great news-I have never in my life seen a CATM episode with Freddie Prinze. My VCR will be ready.

LUckymama58, I wanted to ask you do you know if Freddie says the phrase LOOKING GOOD! in the pilot episode of CATM?

:confused: I don't think so. I will have to get out my tapes and check sometime. They are all packed for the move currently. Any other takers for this question?

Just watched the pilot episode and the answer is no.
Freddie doesnt uses his famous phrase in this episode.

Oh well I guess I will hear that someday. i think someone said that phrase on the 70's show which made me think they were referring to Chico on CATM.

Solomon and anyone else interested.....
Go to tvland.com and go to show/Chico and the Man. There are sounds clips from the show, including Freddie's LOOOOOKING GOOOD! LOL

Thanks I will do that.

My heart is breaking... Why oh why can't it be shown on a Friday afternoon so I can see if at my parents house when we go there on Fridays???? :crying:

I don't know how I am going to be able to see this because... We used to be able to get TVLAND free on our big satellite dish. Then they went to scrambling their signal & we can't get them anymore. :( In order to get the paid channels you have to have a descrambler for the dish & we don't have one cuz we haven't been able to find the right one cheap enough. So no way to watch TVLAND anymore. :( :crying: ( & I love TVLAND). We could go to my parents house to watch it but they may not want me there at 8:30 am cuz they may be having their friends spending the nite with them New Yrs Eve. :crying: I don't know how I am gonna get to watch this... :crying: I'm excited it's gonna be shown but heartbroken that I may not get to see it :crying: and mad that TVLAND is losing the rights to it. :mad:

One question I'd love to know tho is, if they still had the rights to it then why did they take it off? :mad: It is odd they'd show this episode & not the New Yrs one...

For those of you who get to see it do pray for those of us who can't. I am gonna be so depressed. I bet my depression meds won't be working New Yrs Day LOL!

Solomon, you are going to love it! Like they have said. He doesn't say the famous "Looking Good!" He does however say " Little dog in the back window with it's head going up and down". My personal favorite is the part where he tells Ed how to drink Tequilla!;)

That sucks you don't get tv land-I just received TV LAND in 2000 but before that my cable company didn't carry it.

Yes i was glad to find the news out about the pilot of CATM. Now I can finally see chico. I just had to write it down to remind myself to tape it so i won't forget to do so.

Yay!!!

I'm very glad it will be on TV!! I don't think I'll be able to watch it because I probably have to work that day, but oh well... I have 2 different copies of it on video tape...

I work at a nursing home and there is a TV by the nursing station and I have control of the channels---maybe I can turn it on that show and be lucky enough to have the time to sit and watch most of it! I bet the old folks would get a kick out of it, too!

Woo-Hoo I will get to see Freddie after all! :) :) I asked my parents if I could come over & watch it. They said yes. Theya re going to spend the nite New Yrs Eve at their friends house. So we will come over & watch it at 8:30 am & then watch TVLAND till they come abck & then visit with them awhile & then go out to eat & enjoy the day. Woo-Hoo! :) :)
