You can say the same about Three's Company after it's first episode. Ranked #28 overall. Critics also thought that would be a disaster and wouldnt last after its first season of six episodes, and look what happened with that series. I dont think MNTV will be that big of a success either (especially comparing it to the bigger networks), but it is unfair to base a network's future on overnight ratings.

I agree the stuff is horrible, tho I thought the two women beating each other up on Fashion House was kind of erotic. However the music was so loud you could barely hear the dialouge. I had to turn on the Closed Captioning to find out what they were saying.

What I think would be interesting is if Murdoch turned this into FOX Network-2 and show classic programming from FOX.

Channel 59 (cable 9) should just turn it's license into the FCC. They should just ship all their syndicated programming over to Tribune @ FOX 61/CW 20.

What do I watch on MY TV 9?

Montel Williams - only on Wednesdays when Sylvia Browne is on.

King of Queens.

The Insider.

Home Improvement.

The Nanny.

The New York Yankees.

I don't watch the new network called "My Network TV". It's on WWOR-TV (Channel 9) when it took over from UPN-9 to become My-9 over the last few months before the network launched 2 weeks ago. I should give "My Network TV" a big thumbs down.

If only MyNetworkTV didn't premiere, WWOR might of had the chance to redeem its popularity when it was indpendent. Now, 50% of the weekends are infomercials from 6AM-3PM, and they took away the sitcoms like Who's The Boss?, Charles In Charge, Coach, The Nanny, etc. WCTX in New Haven is very bad now.

All 3 stations FOX 61 WTIC, CW 20 WTXX, and MY TV 9 WCTX/59 are horrible. They need to do something creative in the mornings.

I'm only doing the schedules for those not familar with CT TV.

FOX 61 Monday-Friday
5AM-6AM Religious Program
6AM-9AM Infomercials

CW20 Monday-Friday
5AM-9AM Infomercials/Religious Programming
9AM-10AM Roseanne (which is good)
10AM-11AM Infomercials/Religious Programming (BAD)

MY TV 9
5AM-630AM Jewlery Television
630AM Infomercials
7AM-8AM WTNH News on MY TV 9
8AM-9AM Infomercials
9AM-930 Jack Hannna (Good)
930AM-12PM Religious Progamming/Infomercials

Saturdays are bad too.

FOX 61
5AM-7AM Infomercials

CW 20
5AM-7AM Religious Programming/Infomercials
10AM-12PM Religious Programming/Infomercials (instead of CW KIDS. The other half of CW Kids airs on Sundays)

MY TV 9
5AM-6AM Jewlery Television
6AM-12PM Infomercials

I think my local MNTV affiliate (KCOP) gave up on itself. They've stop airing the episodes on high definition.

I kind of wish that WUPL would have become an Independent Station.
