As Dr. Phillips said, there are 3 more sitcoms coming in 2006, so far. So just be patient until then. As for the DVD of this show, One Day at a Time will be coming to DVD later in 2005, at least that is what I last heard - will keep everyone posted on it.

I can;t get too excited about something airing on TV LAND in 2006 because we still have 6 months to go in 2005. Also if ODAAT was to air on TV LAND in 2006 it could be in the Fall-LOL So I try not to think that far ahead

As somewhat of a TV insider myself, Pav you have always had my highest respect and will continue to do so......but I'm thinking just maybe one of the remaining TV land sitcoms still could be One Day At A Time....because if it wasn't, would it be soooo bad to just say publically on a board something like this....."I really wouldn't hold my breath waiting for One Day at a time on TV Land"...or "i Don't think that show would fit with their current plans, but it is only my opinion" you certainly CAN'T get in trouble with a harmless statement like that....you are not confirming anything which makes fans still have hope...and if there is no hope lets get it over with already........also I still feel there is hope because the series will probably start to be released on DVD in the fall, on a nice rapid release schedule we should be up to season 3 by FALL 2006 which would be exactly when TV Land could start running the series...Its always feast or famon....Some TV Execs feel people only buy or watch shows if both available on DVD & Cable airwaves....The airings help sales and the sales help find viewers..... They make a big announcement regarding What Happening coming to TV Land just as the last season is announced for DVD! How silly!!!! I could care less about What's Happening or Good Times on TV Land after having them on DVD...Anyway lets have some real announcement...yay or nay......We waited for months for this lousy Whats Happening announcement now we have another wait...couldn't the original post months ago just have said "I don't think it will be next year, perhaps next year? Then we wouldn't have been so let down by GOOD TIMES, NIGHT COURT, & WHAT'S HAPPENING...........If a statement is vague, then no one will be harmed and come on lets face it...it's only info about a 30 year old TV show not anything to do with national security....TV Land can only benefit from people talking things up.......

I love how this somewhat active threat now has died after I posted a very logical rant about knowing whether "One Day At A Time" is really coming or not to TV Land......one more possible hint it is.......I just rewatched THE 2005 TV Land Awards...and if you remember Glen Scarpelli was one of the trophy people leading guests on and off stage...also One Day at A Time was nominated in the singing sibling category..considering What's Happening also had some noms, is it logical to think they sometimes nominate shows that are coming to the network?.....anyway I directed some thoughts to you Pav and would like to hear some comments??? please read post 2 above.....

For some reason, I still believe that it will come to TVLand.

All In The Family, Sanford And Son, Maude, The Jeffersons Mary Hartman, and soon Good Times have all been on TV Land. ODAAT is the only Norman Lear hit show not to be on that network. Hopefully it will be coming soon.

It just seems like everybody is taking their sweet old time with One Day. Every TV show under the sun gets a DVD release, and TV Land is picking up shows that are nearly completed on DVD. Sony announced last September that One Day was "coming soon." I didn't know they meant a year later.
