This is all I've seen --

I saw another post which said Seinfeld is owned by Fox (I think it's still syndicated by Sony [??]) and that it's too expensive. (MASH isn't expensive?)

Anyway, I could see it at 8 pm. at some point in the future.

I think METV will pull Carol Burnett, it looked like the network was going to do just that last summer, but Twilight Zone didn't perform well enough in the 11pm timeslot. The full hour version of the Burnett show wouldn't work, the variety show era is over. Laugh-In has been tried in the half hour format, the audience thins quickly, it's too topical.

Cheers would be the perfect show for METV except it hasn't performed well or at least not well enough in syndication. I'm not sure what the problem with the series is, I have a few theories but that's a different discussion.

They already have Cheers on their sister network Catchy. Occasionally they will show it on Me as well.

King of Queens is already on rival Cozi so they wouldn’t be able to show it anyway.

Cheers is a perfect show for METV and the new direction they are headed in. It checks all the boxes with one exception, it has underperformed in syndication. I don't know what it is, I have a few theories. Last summer instead of moving the Twilight Zone to 11pm they should have scheduled Cheers to see if maybe the show might gain traction. I think the network should consider it for this summer with Raymond and Golden Girls as lead-ins the show might perform better.

I believe Cheers currently airs on Catchy Comedy Mon-Fri 11pm EST. thru 12AM EST. & Saturdays 11pm EST thru 1:00AM EST. Sundays.

If anything Hot in Cleveland will air after The Golden Girls on Me TV at 11:00pm EST. Most likely part of The 2026 Summer Of Me. Especially with the name Hot In Cleveland.

I don't think so. That's not a METV type of show.

Merry24 · 03-01-2026, 12:24 PM

I hope your right, however never thought Raymond & The Golden Girls were Me TV type of shows either.

Cheers was on MeTV's schedule back when they launched in December 2010.

It was on their schedule for about 5 years.

One time slot that it was in is the one now occupied by Carol Burnett & Friends.

Golden Palace would be a great rotation with the Golden Girls they could play it all seven seasons of The Golden Girls then switch to Golden Palace then back to the Golden Girls that would be awesome if they would do that.

I'd also like to see Nurses which was a spin off from Golden Girls. All of those spinoffs could run on Catchy Comedy

I think all seasons are shown in widescreen. The distributor really screwed that up.

4:3 shows definitely should not be converted to widescreen. They made the same mistake with Seinfeld at some point, probably also a Sony error.
