Can Benson end up on N@N?

[Scoobiedoo30]

that would be great if Benson would come to TBS

Did anyone remember watching it on N@N'S 20TH anaversary marathon. I think benson was their along with shows like who's the boss?, silver spoons. I wish they could replay that marathon. It was probably the best thing I ever saw on N@N.

Yeah! I really enjoyed that. It was pretty cool.

Ah, so that's why it doesn't show up to air on March 4th. That really sucks because I need "What a Revoltin' Development." I am getting really close to having the entire series on DVD, but this cancellation stuff happens when I really need an episode.

I need that one myself. Which others do you still need?

Season 4:
What a Revoltin' Development
Quest for Retire (Great picture quality, but the audio isn't as high as it's supposed to be)

The rest from that season I can convert from VHS when I taped them off of Screen Gems.

Season 7:
Episode #148 - Summer of Discontent (Marlon Wayans) I recorded this episode, but my DVD recorder did something strange, so I am missing a minute or two from it.
Episode #152 – The Hat and the Ring
Episode #153 – The Bucks Stop Here
Episode #154 – Pardon Me
Episode #156 – Three on a Mismatch
Episode #157 – Friends and Enemies (Great picture quality, but the audio isn't as high as it's supposed to be)

Unless you have a DVD version of Hi, Society, I can get that from the Screen Gems tape as well.

TVLAND skipped these particular episodes throughout their entire run. Screen Gems in 2000-2001 aired some of these episodes, but aside from these last "runs" of Benson, these episodes haven't hit the airwaves in years. If you or anyone on this board has Benson playing in their area, keep these episodes in mind and maybe we can set something up.

With the exception of "Hi, Society", TV Land aired all these episodes during the marathon and I do have them on DVD but as fate would have it, that DVD I can't seem to copy for anything.

The episodes I still need are:
1) What A Revoltin' Development (never shown on TV Land)
2) Teacher's Pest
3) The Royal Painting
4) Boys Night Out
5) Double Date
6) Hi, Society

As I mentioned before, episodes 2-5 listed above were shown on TV Land once, but I failed to get them recorded. The other two were never aired on TV Land.

I have the ones you mentioned with the poor quality. Sometime in the future if Benson isn't aired on another local channel I'm sure we can make a trade.

Sounds cool. Yeah, I have all of the ones you want above. It's just that Teacher's Pest and Hi, Society were taped off of Screen Gems (in good quality). Since TVLAND aired Benson, I was extremely cautious and paranoid about missing an episode. This show is so good in so many ways, but every time it leaves the airwaves (as you well know) it is usually a matter of years before it returns. Consider this syndication history in my area.

Mid to late 80's WGN Channel 9 in Chicago
1995-1996 BET
2000-2001 Screen Gems
2006-2007 TVLAND

Perhaps within the next 5 or 6 years we will be able to get what we need.

WGN Channel 9 aired Benson as a Summer Replacement at 6:30 pm

Yep, your memory matches mine, except I do recall watching the show over the summer of '85 on WGN. I can't tell you how long they aired it though. I remember back-to-back episodes, definitely. I did tape some back then but 20+ years later who knows what ever happened to my tapes!

Yeah, I remember sometime in the 5-6:30 range but did not remember exactly when.

[Scoobiedoo30]

I also remember one Saturday WGN Channel 9 aired Benson one Saturday at 5:30 pm Central Time because of a Baseball ame at 6:00 pm Central Time
