No Reason For The Cosby Show To Have Mini Airings On TVLand - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

tvfanfor1980's · 03-04-2004, 09:15 PM

This is getting the best of my anger. The Cosby Show allready airs on WGN(2x a days). It also airs on TBS(2x a day). It airs on Nick @ Nite(4x a night). Now, it airs on TVLand(2x a night). I know this is only temporary, but why is there a big need to air his show all the time? Mr. Cosby, please stop buttering up these networks to air your lame show! I mean really, it is not all that funny. I would rather watch A Different World anyday over The Cosby Show. I think sometimes, these networks do it just to royally piss us off.

TBS-

Nick @ Nite-

Bill Cosby-

WGN Superstation-

TVLand-

Bill Cosby is part owner of N@N/TV LAND. So no need to be angry. U know the reason

I agree that it is overplayed.
No show should ever air more than twice a day, unless its designed as a marathon, where the shows alternate either day to day or week to week.

But i DISAGREE that it is an unfunny show. I think its hilarious. If family sitcoms aren't your cup of tea -- then it makes sense that you wouldn't like it.
But as a fan of family sitcoms (AND workplace).... I believe nothing beats The Cosby Show.
Top-notch.
America's favorite overplayed family.... The Huxtables.

Watch ANY episode of the first 5 seasons and I dare you not to laugh. (Seasons 6-8.... as a fan myself I couldnt bare some of them)

No he's not, he does own some stock in the company, but for them to let that influcence them IMO makes them a really pathetic netowork. IMO the Cosby show needs a few years off the air!

They are a pathetic network anyway. They both used to be so great. *weeps*

I know, they used to use all their airtime to show a varitey of shows, instead of repeating the same ones from earlier in the night.

IMO that's when the network started to go downhill.

If Bill Cosby wants to air his shows 24/7 then he should start his own network!

Mr. Television · 03-05-2004, 12:14 AM

If tv land wants to air a Cosby show they should air the 1969-1971 Bill Cosby Show.

Well I really don't like the show because it has been overplayed. I used to like it, but now I don't. The Family Ties board stays angry about the way TV Land/N@N does with the Cosby Show v. Family Ties. I don't understand these people who would watch it all of those times in one day. I would like to meet one and just ask why???

Brent88 · 03-05-2004, 11:04 AM

I think they should just make a network and air nothing but Cosby Show 24/7. Then, they could take it off TBS, WGN, N@N, and TV Land(whew?). The show sucks because it is overplayed. I used to like it as well, but anything that is overplayed that much gets very old quickly.

About watching an episode of TCS and not laughing, is VERY possible. Family Ties and other family shows are much, much better than TCS. Putting TCS on TV Land was a bad move.

I also agree with you that TCS is NOT the best family show ever. And I can definately watch an episode and not laugh. TCS was really unrealistic in several ways. I don't remember a single time where Cliff and Clair even had a serious fight. A lot of the episodes were downright foolish (i.e. the episodes where the family pretended to sing to the grandparents for their anniverisary, Lamont the goldfish dying, etc.) And the last 2 or 3 years, the show was absolutely horrible. I just want to slap Denise and Venessa, and Olivia and all of that crap just wasn't good. Family Ties was much better, IMO. Other shows like Family Matters were also better.

Completely agree. Clair Huxtable was sooooo stuck up and arrogant.

Do you like to make up things without stating facts?

How many times do I have to tell you this? Bill Cosby has nothing to do what Nick@Nite, TV Land or what any other cable network does! He does NOT own any part of any network. This is entirely the programming department's decision. Bill is with Nickelodeon though, because he has deal with them to produce shows (Little Bill, Fatherhood), that's all it is! He has NO SAY in what to air and when to air things.
