Wouldn't have even posted except I was so excited to see Pictionary gone.



Looking forward to your in depth comments about the fall schedule.

With the fall season approaching, CHCH will make a final series of changes before the summer ends. This is because "The Brady Bunch" will be ending on August 16, one week from Friday. Next Monday the 19th, here's how the lineup will be affected:

-"The Love Boat" will replace the Bradys at 11:00 am and also have a 2nd episode at its regular time of 1:00 pm.

-"Cheers" will exit the weekend schedule leaving "Dynasty" as the only remaining retro series to be found there. It also will have a 2nd episode during the weekdays. That will be at 3 pm, replacing "The Lucy Show"'. It too will remain at 5 pm until the series ends. That should be when the new fall daytime retro series arrive.

Looks like starting Monday August 12th CHCH will be dropping The Odd Couple and start airing Cheers in it's place at 3:30pm and air Nightline in the 5pm slot and starting Thursday August 15th it will be back to back episodes of Cheers airing from 3-4pm. Seems like they're burning off the the final episodes of The Love Boat & Cheers while shows like The Lucy Show & Dynasty are near their end, so they can start the fall schedule in September. I'm guessing The Odd Couple will return at that time.

But the 5-6pm hour is a question mark. Looks like CHCH would rather air shows like Nightline and Trending Now in that hour, but hopefully that's not going to happen in September & they'll air some retro shows from 5-6pm.

If it weren't for these retro shows, I, and I know most of you would not need to tune in to CHCH. Unless it's your local TV station, there is no reason to tune in.
As much as we enjoy these shows, CHCH needs them as much to bring in viewers.

I sometimes avoid the National news, depending on what they are talking about. When it's too much politics, I tune out. We don't need to see what we already don't want to see on the National news, on Nightline of Trending Now.

It seems like not long ago the Brady Bunch started, now it's almost gone. I don't like 2 episodes, unless it's a long running series.
As for the Lucy Show, you blink and it's almost over. It wasn't that long ago that it was added to the schedule.

It's a disappointing fall schedule after a disappointing summer schedule, many of the shows that aired last fall are airing again. Don't know why they don't bring back some of the retro shows that they haven't aired in a while but since most people these days have other options to view shows CHCH isn't really doing itself any favours with this schedule.
