IDEA! GMC Should acquire "Life Goes On", among other classics - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Oh right it is time to unite! It really looks like Gospel Music Channel has changed their programming dramatically (so has Reelz channel, from movie talk shows, BTW E!'s original theme when it was called "Movietime" to mainly sitcoms, but I digress) anyway this post is about GMC, now I admit I never watched it and it continues its' original gospel theme on sundays only....The programming folks at GMC have pulled a Viacom and totally changed their vision.......They run Doc, Dr. Quinn, Sister, Sister, 227, Highway To Heaven, Promised Land, & the reliable can't get rid of Sue Thomas F.B.Eye....they pretty much have turned into a combination of the old ION and Hallmark Channel. It's a gentle program schedule with some religious overtones, but they also run movies like tonight 2/18/11 they will be running Eddie Murphys' "The Nutty Professor"...what! On something called Gospel Music Channel?....lol......

What always amazes me (not really) is that there are also so many "ignored classics" in the same tradition......btw.....my suggestion also goes to AmericanLife TV, but they seem to be really confused at the moment. Flipper & a Canadian Soap "Beachcombers" and endless unknown talk shows....huh?

I AM SHOUTING FROM THE ROOFTOP. someone bring back ABC's "Life Goes On" starring Kelly Martin, Chris Burke, & Patti Lapone...Warner gave us one season on DVD and abandoned it..and while you're at it....How about the the 3 season much beloved "American Dreams" which NBC really gave support, also a one season DVD release but then the series was never seen again! BTW...For you Brittany Snow fans, support her on the brillant "Harry's Law" Monday nights @10PM on NBC.

Two exceptional quality shows that have faded into the mist of missing TV! They need to return!

That would indeed be a great idea - especially since it looks like the last 3 seasons will never see the light of day on DVD.
