[Kevmath]

With the way that digital cable seems to be the wave of the future, you think there's a possibility that the older shows can come back on some sort of TV Land 50's, 60's, Westerns, etc.

I am so very glad that TV Land is going to be airing Marathrons Like What Happening Bonanza Gunsmoke Miami Vice Good Times The Brady Bunch The Andy Griffith Show and a 72 Hour Memorial Day weekend Marathron

[clj2]

So, no more Flip or Addams Family? I'm actually glad they're doing this; it'll give some much-needed variety. Having the SAME thing on 7 nights a week was really getting old. Hmmmmmm....Memorial Day marathon.....I'd be willing to bet it's either I Love Lucy or maybe Cheers?

TVLand is just doing what Nick-At-Nite did 10 years ago: Going flush down the toliet. I am so damn sickj of networks showing the same crap over and over. No wonder I never watch tv anymore except for a few shows on Nostalgia Channel or whatever it is called now. GSN dumped out a few years back as well. I guess we just have no choice in seeing good shows from the 1950's and 1960's that were in GASP Black and White other than LITB, ILL and TAGS.

I saw on TV Land's message board that the Bonanza/ Little House on the Prairie marathon Memorial Day weekend will be 72 hours and I am wondering if Paven has info on that? Thanks.

[Pavan]

I only see 48 hours for Memorial Day weekend, as of now.

[JamisonCollins]

Okay thanks Paven. If anything has changed with the Memorial Day Bonanza/ Little House on the Prairie marathon on TV Land I know you will post it.

Wow, isn't this a plesant surprise! I wonder what posessed them to air "The Munsters" and "Green Acres" 3x a day again? Maybe since both are expiring this year they are trying to test them or something. I can definately say I will be watching more TV Land over the summer.
