CHCH FALL 2025

[Jim Phelps]

I’m disappointing the first episode of All in the Family today because that is not the season 1 episode 1. The title called Meet the Bunker, where Mike meet Gloria’s parents for the first time. CHCH jump some episodes along the way. I wonder if jump a lot of episode during the entire series, very disappointing. Let see what happen tomorrow.

I wonder if those same words were muted on recent US airings. It does lose some of its effect by doing this.

I totally expected it. The "trigger warnings" that you see before each episode were likely made for series just like this one although the muting of certain words and having the warnings repeated after the commercials does seem to be a bit much for me.

What I didn't expect at all was to see the same warnings applied to other series, especially "Leave It To Beaver". It seems like that show gets it in nearly every episode and I don't understand that at all. If I could pick one series that I would choose as being a 100% polar opposite to "All In The Family", it would be that one. What could possibly happen there that would offend anybody? Even Eddie Haskell was a complete angel compared to Archie Bunker and George Jefferson! I wish someone would explain it me.

I remember when they used to air Good Times they would mute some of the words for obvious reasons. i dont blame them for muting All In The Family. some of the descriptions of minorities are bad. some people wont want to hear that. its cringe worthy.

I noticed that When Leave It To Beaver wraps up its final season they will start from the beginning again. i dont mind that. i have enjoyed watching it.

CHCH will have a slight schedule change for Tuesday morning in honor of Remembrance Day. The new morning lineup will look like this:

10:00 AM Leave It To Beaver
10:30 Remembrance Day Mass live from Hamilton, Ont.
11:30 Laverne & Shirley

The good news is that Matlock will not be shown but will be back the next day and the schedule will resume and be back to normal, with one exception. "The Bionic Woman" aired its final episode today. As I had predicted, "The Rockford Files" will take its place beginning tomorrow at 1 pm after "The Six Million Dollar Man".

It was fun to see Lindsey Wagner on the first episode of The Rockford Files right after it took the spot of The Bionic Woman!

They were running an episode the other day where Gloria is singing "Making Whoopie" to Mike - and they muted the word "whoopie" - not once but twice.

This is a bit ridiculous - what's offensive about that word? If you watch "Newlywed Game" reruns they use that word all the time.

I can sort of understand why they might mute a word that could be considered derogatory to a certain race, but it's going way too far. The pendulum has swung way too far and I don't know when it's going to start swinging back again. If you look at these shows and the message they're trying to convey, in the end Archie never wins. If you mute half the words you're missing part of the point. These shows aired intact in the past.

I'm glad they're showing this because i haven't seen it in a long time, but it's disappointing. During the fourth season they no longer had the 30 second "epilog" scene at the end and went straight to the closing credits after the "second act". Sometimes they'll run the disclaimer before the end credits when there's no other scene. Huh? Talk about being too careful.

The New Year is almost here and that will mean more new shows will be coming to CHCH. Here's one I'll bet you didn't expect. On New Year's Day, "Knight Rider" will be taking its last ride at 3 pm. The next day, January 2nd, it will be replaced by "The Mod Squad", the 1960s classic drama series about a group of 3 troubled teens working together as crime fighters. That should get 2026 off to a flying start!

Mod Squad was a great show. One of the earliest dramas that pioneered the police detective formula along with Ironside.
