Oh yeah. For some reason I thought these were all coming from ME, but it's Rewind

I only watch on the DVD set, but breathlessly waiting to see where it ends up. Unless Antenna is just resting it to bring back eventually. Think they've been running it something like 8 years straight. Unless I'm forgetting a moment where they took it off before.

now i cant wait to see what Me-tv got for their winter schedule

Merry24 · 11-10-2023, 12:37 AM

I’m the odd one out.

I’m very Thankful we have antenna tv. I’m feeling it might becoming to the end of the road for me when it comes to antenna tv. They have some wonderful programs and cool Marathon stunts.

Although it looks like they’re adding more 80’s & 90’s programming and removing and keeping 50’s & 60’s programming for mornings only and not adding any New 50’s & 60’s programming. However I’m okay with them airring 80’s & 90’s programming unfortunately the ones antenna will be having are not my liking. If they brought in Family shows like (Who’s The Boss? Growing Pains Just The 10 Of Us & 227 & Amen). I don’t think I would gripe as much lol.

antenna tv is a free over the air channel and it’s nice that they still air Classic programming and Cool Marathon stunts. However the Scheduling seems off. Example, during the annual Christmas Collection Marathon they could have the 50’s & 60’s Christmas episodes in the Evening Primetime and LateNight and overnight considering they don’t air those shows at those times through out the entire year. In addition giving them atleast Weekend exposure.

Thinking it over a lot of the programs from the 50’s & 60’s can be streamed and some programs from the 80’s & 90’s are hard to find anywhere. Although there are a few shows from the 80’s & 90’s that also being shown at decent times but also you can stream it as well.

Reguarding the start of antenna tv 2024 the schedule is not the best for me. Hopefully with in time things will get better but like I said from the beginning I’m the odd one out and I know my fellow posters seem pretty happy with this so I will be happy for you and I’ll stick to streaming/ Me TV and Catchy Comedy unless antenna tv makes some changes or I see something I will enjoy.

Enjoy fellow posters! Happy Viewing in the New Year with antenna tv!

Darn. I was hoping The Jeffersons contract would be up so it could move back to Catchy but I guess not. Then again One Day at a Time isn’t on this schedule so it’s possible it moves to Catchy instead.

Svenfan1234 · 11-10-2023, 12:55 PM

I feel like they changed their schedule in order to compete with Catchy Comedy. Especially the 12-4PM lineup has extreme similarities in female-led sitcoms just like Catchy Comedy. I feel like they may be neck in neck with Antenna as far as ratings go.

One Day at a Time I could see on Catchy as well as That Girl but I guess we'll see. But those two I could definitely see move to Catchy. I wouldn't be surprised if Maude and The Jeffersons do as well at some point, maybe even Barney Miller and Three's Company, who knows? I also wouldn't be surprised if Bewitched and Jeannie move over to Me-TV and Catchy Comedy at some point.

A few years ago both Room 222 and Julia were on Aspire TV which is an African American focused channel.

5 and 6 would be returns to Antenna TV.

They've already tried to get number 7 but it appears no one will pay to remaster the episodes.

MikeLutton · 11-12-2023, 12:16 AM

how about the John Larroquette show and Dave's World

The John Laroquette Show is coming to Rewind, so it might show up on Antenna TV as well.

favoriteshow · 12-08-2023, 03:02 PM

If they are shifting Facts of Life and Drew Carey from Rewind to Antenna, I wonder if Rewind TV's future is uncertain.

Rewind TV's issues:
Lack of commitment from Nexstar to expand access, lack of exclusive shows of popularity, lack of a theme when Antenna TV is the primary channel and shows from the 80s and after moving back there.

Who's the Boss?, one of its other popular shows, is now on Hulu and can be watched commercial free, all seasons. (Side note, another reason to not need Logo).

icecream · 12-21-2023, 02:02 PM

One Day at a Time and That Girl's rights are expiring from Antenna TV. I asked them about this, and it is confirmed. Good shows like that leave, but joining/staying is garbage like The Drew Carey Show and Designing Women. At least The Facts of Life is returning to Antenna TV.

MikeLutton · 12-21-2023, 02:05 PM

The John Larroquette Show is already on Rewind tv wish it was on Antenna tv though

Hopefully that means One Day At a Time and That Girl move to MeTV/Catchy.
