Cheers and Family Ties on NAN - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Do you think it was a good move for NAN to add Family Ties and Cheers onto its schedule this fall.
Me im not sure. I think it was kinda bad. First Cheers is still syndicated, so you can see it more often. Second Differnt Strokes, the Facts of Life, and Threes Company are still kinda new on the network and need more time to get established. Plus this means that some other shows might get bumped. Especially if Nick at Nite keeps up this dump douple take thing. Show a show twice takes away tons of time to air other shows. Epecially during its prime hour(8-midnight, ct) I think it would be better for NAN to do that after midnight. It should get a good solid schedule that everyone likes and that sticks in ur mind and that can come back year after year and you know the show is always on at that time. In the past few years NAN has switched there schedule so much i quite watching it for awhile. I never knew when to watch. I was getting back into when The Facts of Life was on at 9 and Threes Company at 10. But they switched real quick. I remember when I love Lucy was always on at 8 or 830 and Mary Tylor Moore was on at 9 and I Dream of Jeannie was on at 930. That was good. I loved nick at nite back in the early and middle 90s it was alot better then.
So what do ya all think

No way, Jose! What happened to that show they promised us last year, "Perfect Strangers"?

Well Family Ties was a good move I think, I think they should have held Cheers for another year though. I'd like to see Perfect Strangers on N@N, but I'd be happy with it on TNN as well.
