I noticed on the TV Land November an episode of MTM. Has Tv Land reacquired rights to the show? If so, when is it coming back to regular schedule?

Jack07 11-10-2003, 09:43 AM From the TV Land Message Board Why is TVLand unable to renew the contract? [TVLTheLink: The syndication package for "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" has some clauses concerning how much it can be on air in "local" markets. If that number is exceeded, then the show cannot be aired on a national network. At this time, that number has been exceeded.] Pavan, Do you know which local markets it is airing in? I was surprised at this response, I didn't think it was airing in any markets. Is there a way to check and see if a show is airing in a local market?

I don't know what TheLink is saying, but that is not true. MTM Show has not aired on locals in years. It is currently not airing on any local channel at all nor is it on cable.

TVLInk keeps posting on the TV Land site that they can't get the rights due to locals airing it. What is the real situation?

All I know is that TV Land lost rights to the show after last August, and they have not renewed. I'm not sure if they will do another contract or why they didn't renew (they renewed Dick Van Dyke and Gunsmoke after August, but not MTM).
