You could have just watched it on ABC, though.

If A-channel has dropped it, I was hoping maybe CITY or OMNI might pick it up (OMNI's had "Crosswords" and "Trivial Pursuit" so I thought there was hope). I don't see it on those schedules either.

Has it moved to a cable channel? I'd be disappointed if I can't see it this fall.

Is there any way of finding out who might be carrying it? The official "Millionaire" site for some reason has never listed the Canadian stations it's seen on.

I checked the schedules and it looks like the only way you'll be able to watch the daytime "Millionaire" (the one without Regis, thank God!) is on a digital channel. It will be on the Game Show network, WGN in Chicago, and WNLO-TV in Buffalo (MyNetworkTV) which used to be channel 49 on the UHF side before the switch to digital broadcasting made that possibilty useless but you can get that channel too if you have digital cable or satellite. The bad news is after next Friday you won't get it for free anymore. Sorry!

Didn't see this mentioned anywhere..Didn't know where to write this (and didn't want to start a new thread)...anyway...

TVTropolis is changing their schedule and is going to start airing Golden Girls daily beginning with a GG marathon on December 30!

According to Zap2It from 2-6pm Monday to Friday this is what we'll be getting on TVTropolis beginning the first week of January 2010.

2:00pm Golden Girls
2:30pm Golden Girls
3:00pm Three's Company
3:30pm Ellen
4:00pm Seinfeld
4:30pm Seinfeld
5:00pm Golden Girls
5:30Pm Golden Girls

There are a lot of other changes to the schedule, a lot of "reality tv" from Mon thru Wed in prime time (Hoarders, Parking Wars etc.) and Thursday and Friday prime time they'll air Family Guy, Cleveland Show, That 70's Show, Seinfeld and King of Queens.

Check out Zap2It for details.

I'm glad to see GG is back on the air. I've been hoping that some station would air it for months now.

Thanks very much for the update. I find it surprising how they're starting to bring more classic shows like Three's Company and now Golden Girls. It seems maybe like they're trying to have both modern sitcoms, classic sitcoms, reality shows, and the Canadian content that is required. Hopefully, Wonder Years gets back on the air soon. Dejaview always takes it off and brings it back.

You're welcome!

I find it surprising too. I do hope that they add a few more classic sitcoms too, but adding Golden Girls (and Three's Company last fall) is a great start!
