I am seeing METV for the very first time - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Hawkee · 06-18-2019, 12:31 AM

I found out that I now get METV in my hotel room and I LOVE it and I find METV to be really cool and seeing sitcoms like Gomer Pyle USMC is great and I hope METV adds more shows in the future because METV is really neat

I remember when I found out that our cable provider was adding METV and how thrilled I was, now I couldn't care less.

I think ME TV is the best of all the "retro-channels"

Hi, Bestie! You are lucky, I don't get METV yet. But I hope to. Keep me updated on their shows!

LaBestia, is a good thing you watched METV for the first time in your life.

MA · 06-18-2019, 09:38 AM

What are your favorite shows on there Bestie?

Mr. Television · 06-18-2019, 10:41 AM

It is the best retro channel. It does need to change their schedule up a bit though.

yes, like I said it's the best of ALL the "retro-channels". I wish they'd give MASH a rest though. They've shown it since they first went national 7 years ago and now it's on 5 or 6 other channels. And they've always had i0t weeknights at 7 & 7:30.

Glad you found MeTV. It's got a lot of good stuff but it's not what it used to be.

I remember when I discovered it for the first time. Hard to believe that was 7 years ago.

If I recall correctly, when MeTV debuted as a retro channel for Chicago back in 2005, the first day they went on the air they showed some retro cartoons. I think one of the cartoons was Rocky and Bullwinkle, maybe Underdog too but it was 14 years ago so I don't remember for sure.

Another thing that I seem to recall, when tuning into the channel prior to the launch date, a "watch this space" message was displayed on the screen.

Lucky you! I just lost my MeTV channel and no one can tell me when or if it'll be back.
