ADW was on Oxygen.

That's where it needs to stay because I don't think a lot of women from 25-54 watches BET. Black or White

I can't see Black Female in the 13-23 age bracket tuning into Different World.

And how do you know the age demographic of the people who watch BET?

BTW, I don't care for BET...UNLESS they are airing something good. I am sure that is how other people are when it comes to watching shows. If I am glancing at the channels and see a program I like, I will tune in. I think BET is hoping to gather a different demographic by airing ADW. Also, I think the mere fact it is a Bill Cosby spin-off and has black actors as the stars, is really the only reason they brought it to their station.

Because BET just started adding sitcoms that's not GHETTO so it will probably take years for BET to not be seen as a GHETTO NETWORK geared toward teenagers

My cousin who is a intelligent 31 year professional black woman is a huge fan of ADW and since she is not into HIP HOP or GHETTO SITCOMS like ther Parkers she would never know that BET is airing ADW because she never turns to the channel, That's my point

I don't tune into BET. But I did when I found out ADW was airing on there. If I didn't find out the information from S.O. I would have figured it out by changing the channel or reading the guide information.

Well I hope it becomes more than a ONE-DIMESIONAL Network and continues air all types of black shows instead of just the ones with a Ghetto twist like 106thPark and the Parkers
