Well, OK, I DO like Diff'rent Strokes, but I can't think what possessed N@N when they chose some of their summer marathon shows.

The Andy Griffith Show? Excuse me? I Love Lucy? EXCUSE ME? The Brady Bunch? EXCUSE ME!?!? The Andy Griffith Show belongs squarely on TV Land, that's where I Love Lucy SHOULD be, and I don't care where The Brady Bunch goes. These three shows are already overplayed. How about some more later-season FoL or a run of Silver Spoons? Heck, Three's Company is just about the only other marathon I'm looking forward too.

Am I the only one who feels some of these choices, well, suck?

P.S. I'm only going on what's been shown on the trailers for the summer unre-al-athons. Hopefully they won't actually show some of these shows....

I agree 100%! The only one I'm looking forward to is Three's Company! Hopefully the person that picked the lineup won't be doing it again next year!

Looks like I won't be watching TV at all this summer. Nothing to look forward to.

I really HATE the line up too!! I mean...i'm sorry, but Andy Griffin (sp?) and I love Lucky DEFINTILEY belond to TV Land...i mean, is'nt that where Andy has been? N@N needs to get some facts straight!! I"m loooking forward to 3's Company and Diff'Strokes...but I guess we'll just have to see what they play on Fridays...i'm sure FOL will be featured a couple of times! http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif

When will my precious FOL be on?
I can't live with out it!!!

the lineup is not what's bothering me, it's N@N not even trying to squeeze in FOL somewhere. I mean an episode at 3:00 am would be fine with me....
I think they really DO have something againist FOL.

This line up SUCKS! Geez N@N has some serious problems. No FOL, now that's just plain WRONG! No TV at nights, can't look forward to anything good. And there's nothing good on during the day either. For entertainment I watch "Discovery Health" I'm so board.

The linep ain't that bad.


Oh wait, I'm thinking of a different lineup.

The summer N@N lineup?

http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/frown.gif

N@N could done better than that. much better. That stinkin' DS cost us our lineup spot.

A little FYI, I Love Lucy will be moving to TV Land on October 15 of this year. I for one think I Love Lucy is a great show, but that is just my opinion. Andy needs to be on Tv Land as well, or move it back to TBS. I Hate the Brady Bunch! The only ones that I will watch are TC, I Love Lucy, and DS. Maybe they might show FOL on Fridays, like they did last year with party crasher Fridays.

Looks like my summer won't be spent in front of the TV watching N@N. I've never seen a network so obsessed with "The Brady Bunch" aka "The Most Annyoing Show on Earth".

Jo: Why would Tootie do something like that?

Blair: WHY? I know why. To make a fool of Blair Warner, that's why.

Jo: You don't need Tootie for that.

Ok what is NAN doing! First they said that FOL was the most requested show and then they take away the 2 eps a nite and make it 1 ep a nite then they take there early mornig spot off and then they take it off Friday and Saturday and now on Sunday. Also now they have gone to fair, not even put it on the un-real-athon, that does it! Whats wrong with them are they trying to get ride of NAN because if so that's the way to do it by hitting the highest rated show on NAN.

LOL! ks, you are sooo right!!!

I foresaw this comeing when the FOL first episode aired on N@N. They over-played it in Marathons. Somehow, I always new they'd hate FOL soon. I thought I was prepared but now... I've become dependent... I have become a true Lifer...

Can't we all just get along?

Diff'rent Strokes, Andy Griffith, Lucy, Brady Bunch, Three's Company? Is that all?!

What possessed Nick-at-Nite to run Brady Bunch again?! Hasn't that been in the line-up the last few years already!? How much of that PC crap can one person take?!?!?

Andy Griffith? One whole night of Andy Griffith??? Ahhhh!! Kill me!!!

Lucy's OK, but it is overplayed. It doesn't need a marathon. (Remember last summer when we had Lucy Tuesdays, AND the Lucy Saturday? Idiots!)

Diff'rent Strokes is OK, but it gets trite after awhile. But its at least new to N@N so it can be on there.

Three's Company is really the only one that I'd care to watch. At least they have this on.

What about Gilligan's Island? Or Facts of Life? Or God help me...What about All in the Family??? The Jeffersons????? AAAAAGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! These shows deserve a full night more than those!!

Argh, it's so screwed up. Andy Griffith? Why did N@N start showing that during Graveyard hours on weekends? Is that stupid? I hate that show, ugh! If they squeezed FOL in over Andy, I would have no problem with the Un-Real-a-Thon...

FOL is the fourth highest show on Nick at Nite. (After Diff'rent Strokes, Three's Company, and The Brady Bunch)
They are showing the top three though. And the Lucy thing is sort of a farewell.

There is no question that they are sticking it to FOL fans. I have watched very few FOL episodes this year. The Paris ones and several others, because they simply have refused to show season 8 and 9 episodes this year. I have seen all season 1-7 episodes with 2 execptions. I hope by August they decide to show them. I'll probably be on vacation then. However, why would they show the Brady Bunch? This is one of the worst shows in the history of TV. An unrealistic view of family life, headed by a man who died of AIDS. Even sci-fi like Star Trek is more factual than that. I hope they decide to put it on TV Land(If my local cable company(Cablevision) ever decides to carry it), then perhaps we can see all the episodes including the controveral ones.

Sometimes I wonder if the folks at N@N got tired of all the angry letters they've been receiving from FOL fans, and this is their way of retaliating.

I don't care for the Brady Bunch either, but wasn't that already show during N@N's marathon last summer?

I do agree that the Brady Bunch sucks. Andy Griffith Rocks though! Andy is one of the best shows on N @ N. http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif
