I Know what you mean, They were funny at first but it is rather annoying now. Im also sick of them calling it the NEW TNN when its been The NEW TNN for 3 Freakin Years!

Well, I got this one memorized from Real TV

Hi, I'm Ahmad Rashad and you're watching Real TV.

I saw that Jesse guy in some other ad. Uh, I want to say it's for Hamburger Helper. Ugh, I could've thrown my tv set out the window when I saw him doing another ad.

No wonder that Phylicia wanted to divorce Ahmad!!!

Saying "Hi, I'm Ahmad Rashad" 50 times a week would get kinda old after a while

Note, this is NOTHING like the schedule that started on Feb 25, 2002, when they added A-Team, Diff'rent Strokes and Three's Company--what a difference a year makes.

Pav, I first observed the demise of TNN about 2 years back when they were showing Wonder Years, the summer of 2001 I believe. First thing I noticed: The Black Bar.

Ever since then I would read in newsgroups like rec.arts.tv, alt.tv.nick-at-nite, and a few others numerous complaints about that channel. It got so fascinating I'd comment every now and then. Right now, TNN is no more. The comments on the Usenet, going back to summer 2001, had become an essay on how bad a TV channel could go.

The top complaints were:

1: Black Bar
2: Lack of quality programming

Anyway, after my essay concerning the James Bond Marathon and what TNN did with it, I decided just to killfile the channel. The main offense, and I had to learn this from a rec.arts.tv user Dwayne Day, was that TNN was really NOT showing it uncut. That in addition to the other offenses.

Uh oh. Joseph Forte's playing for the Seattle Sonics.

Gotta run.

And Still No Nashville Network For Good!

Chad22 · 02-22-2003, 12:55 AM

I Didnt like the Nashville Network. I Liked TNN best 2001-2002 When they were showing good quality sitcoms like Diff'rent Strokes, Newhart, WKRP In Cincinatti, Etc. But to be honest, I Think i would rather see Hee Haw than 4 Hours in a row of Real TV. As i said earlier, The only thing i even watch TNN for anymore is WWE.

Yeah, I never watched it when it was the Nashville Network either. The 2001-2002 schedule was the best, imo. The only thing I watch on TNN is the original Star Trek movies. They show them every once in awhile and I suck up my feelings about TNN long enough to watch the movies. Other than that, I don't watch the station.

TVJunkie101 · 02-23-2003, 09:04 AM

I rarely watched The Nashville Network either. I did watch Dallas pretty regularly, and a lot of the times Alice. But that was it.

Yeah, during the networks first transition, into the "We Got Pop" Phase was the best, WKPR, Wonder Years, Newhart, etc. If TNN wasn't heading in the way of Men TV (as a guy, I could care less, honestly) I WOULD HAVE liked it to be sort of an 80s network, you know, good 80s programming would have been nice (all the shows that N@N overlooked: One Day at a Time, Gimme a Break, Silver Spoons, 227, etc.), but that's probably not going to happen.

TNN is awful. I haven't watched the network since August 2002 when they took off Diff'rent Strokes. I refuse to even watch The A-Team on there, but at least the black bar seems to go good with the show, lol. I think Viacom needs to make up it's mind on what they want TNN to be.

8 episodes of Real TV a day is disgusting. 2 is way more than enough. I hate Kids Say.. but I would take that over Real TV anyday.

And has anyone watched Taboo? I was flipping through the channels, and decided "what the hell." It was the most awful "game show" (it shouldn't even be called that) I've ever seen. The host is awful and I HATE the promos for the show.

Enough ranting.

Oh yea. I hate that host! They need soeone who isn't braindead. I love the actual game, as in if you're playing with other people, cause it's really fun, lol. I was looking forward to the game show but was greatly dissapointed.
