It's Time for N@N to stop airing TC. Hand the show over to another network. - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

It really doesn't doesn't bother me that N@N stopped airing TC because they have done a horrible job. Overall Grade is a D+. They Destroyed Up in the Air and their editing STINKS. And Futhermore, N@N refuses to air Two Funny Episodes because of the storyline. So N@N is doing all TC fans a FAVOR by not airing.

PS-only reason I didn't give N@N a (F) is because they did show the extended version of the opening credits from season 4 and 6.

hand it over to Comedy Central.That looks like a nice home for it.Myabe they won't do such a chop job in editing.
I'm glad i recorded it.I knew something like this would happen.Networks seem to like changing their scedules around
Maybe WGN from chicago should buy the rights to it.Maybe that's what's happening:it's being yanked so another network can pick it up

I have a feeling that even Comedy Central "may" make edits. That's just a feeling....

BTW, on other shows they air, do they edit badly? Never really watch that network...

Well Comedy Central is part of Viacom, which owns TV Land and Nick@Nite, so it would be the same edits. But I don't think there is a chance Comedy Central will air it. If they do, they'd treat it bad like they did with Soap and Sports Night.

TV Land or Spike TV is more of a chance than Comedy Central.

Viacom has the rights to Three's Company still, its a 7 year deal that runs until October 2007.

I hope it won't go on Spike TV only because I don't get that channel....

But if nothing else, maybe I'd like for it to go on TV Land, as the last resort.

What's weird is that last night I saw a NEW Nick-at-Nite commercial showing tons of clips from Roseanne, Full House, The Cosby Show AND Three's Company!! Why would they do that if it's been pulled off the lineup? Something tells me this plug is only temporary....

Actually my only problem with the show on Nick at Nite was how late the put it on. About the edits, well I wasn't around in the 70s, so I didn't see how the show originally aired. Right now I watch the episodes in syndication, but I see what you're saying. Do you really think it should be on Comedy Central though? Most of their programming is adult humor. I think Three's Company would be better off on ABC family or something like that.

Well most TC fans can tell that N@N versions of Three's Company was badly edited because of seeing eps on TBS or local TV stations. I don't think that many TC fans on here this board saw the show on ABC during it's original run.
