Question Calling TNN and telling them you want FOL...

I had an idea that if everyone calls TNN and keeps asking, they might start playing FOL. Who knows? I think I'll try calling them.

Sorry to bust your bubble, but if you
want call anyone, you're gonna have
to call either MTV or VH1. One of those
bought out TNN. Trust me when I say this,
alot of people aren't happy about that.

In my opinion, I think a network like TNN would be better off with the show..they'd probably treat it better. (People who have been on the board for a couple of months know what I mean..)

I don't watch TNN anymore because they took off Newhart. They suck now. Nothing is good. If they added FOL, Nick at Nite better not loose it because I aint watching TNN anymore.

I wish so bad TBS or USA would get it. It's been on USA before. TBS shows Family Ties so
if Nick gets Family Ties why not give TBS the
Facts of Life. Both Networks would show all episodes. I wish TBS or USA would get Diff'rent Strokes to. So we could see all the
episodes.

Sounds like I should have been here everyday??

JoPolniaczeksbiggestFan, I was thinking that maybe we can get our local county library to purchase some of the volumes of FOL from Columbia House. Please e-mail me if you're interested.

You got that right, TNN does suck, they
took off Dukes of Hazzard. I'm not sure
about anyone else but I found out a few
days ago that TNN and TVLand are on the
same channel, I find that strange! Now
that I know that I have TVLand, I hope
FOL goes to TVLand.

ok i got a HUGE complaint! ok.. i got a few complaints! listen up!
1st! * TNN is a partnership wtih TVland and Nick at Ntie.. so what makes you think that they'll "treat" it better!! It's gonna be cut out the same way, it's gonna be broadcasted the same wya.. it's not going to be ANY different!!

2nd! * TNN only plays their "older show's" during the day... now for basically ALL of us.. that is when we are at school or at work.. so who's ever gonna see it!!!! NOBODY!! unless you tape it.. and what if your vcr goes all weird on ya!?!? then you are SCREWED! so i think it is better off with it beign on NaN

3rd! * Screen Gems network is kinda hoooked with I dream of Jeanie, Bewitched, The Jefferson's and Benson... and becuase there is a special thing that they like where the shows kinda go together...
I dream of Jeanie and Bewitched both do with Magical things that cannot haeppen in real life
The Partrige Family and The Monkeys both musical groups
The Jefferson's and Benson both black families that are somehwat rich
what show woudl go with Facts of life??? there really isn't one.. i mean Diff'rent Strokes MAYBE but it's a slim chance that i doutb is gonna happen... PLUS Screen Gems Network is USUALLY run during the day also and is usually not viewable before or after school/work... so TRUST me! leave it on NaN! If NaN ever DOES take facts of life off (which i'm sure it won't!) then we can start panicing on where to try to get FOL to next.. but for rihgt now... leave it at it's grounds!!!!! PLEASE!!!!


Toodles!

Toodles!
We can't be for sure but, TVLand could possibly air more of the controversial
episodes. That's the only reason that I
want FOL on TVLand. I'm not gonna say
it's gonna happen but it's possible. I'm
not trying to give you an attitude but
we can hope that TVLand picks up FOL.
That doesn't mean it's going to happen.
In your opinion, do you want to see less
episodes of FOL or more episodes of FOL?
Once again, TVLand could possibly air
more episodes. That's just my opinion!
