I think that most of us have concluded that N@N has something against FOL.

They probably showed it because the jefferson's play at what~ like midnight. It is a show that is not gear to a young audience. If you have to be 18 to get into one of those strip clubs, they probably think it is not appropriate for the age group that views that show.

Just a thought.

It has always been a fact that N@N hates FOL. Even from the begining it seemed as if they were TRYING to kill it. They showed it so much(maybe to attempt to bore fans) and then, despite all the fans still watching it, they started only showing one episode a night instead of two. Now not at all.

I agree fol & ds fan 4ever, but if N@N has something against Fol why did they put that show on there line-up in the first place I mean they bearly even show it anyway. Why not let another channel pick it up that will actually show it? That has been bugging me for the longest time.

Georges Answering Machine: Believe it or not George isn't at home please leave a message at the beep, I must be out or I'd pick up the phone where could I be, believe it or not I'm not home.

Rose: I skipped school only once. It turned out to be the day they taught everything!

Daphne, getting Niles to do up her zipper: Don't be afraid to grab hold and give it all you've got.
Niles: Okay.
Niles: Oh dear. I've zipped my tie into your dress
Frasier: Niles, there's something on your tie
Daphne: I was just about to step right out of this dress and embarrass poor Dr Crane to death.
Niles:Well, we all have to die of something.

Why would N@N be against FOL? That's
what I want to know! If N@N had a problem with FOL, then why did they start airing
FOL? I will admit that I am peeved at
N@N. But, why couldn't they have stopped
airing or showing less episodes of Three's Company or The Brady Bunch or
Gilligan's Island? What's so special
about those three shows? How are they
better then FOL? In my opinion, all
comedy shows are basically the same thing. That's all I've gotta say at the
moment!

I'm with everyone who agrees that N@N has something against FOL.

I wasn't trying to say that N@N is not against FOL, all I was asking was why would N@N have something against FOL?

angel...I'm sorry, I didn't mean to single you out or anything. I don't really know why N@N would have anything against one of their highest rated shows, but how else can one explain their treatment of FOL?

I guess because people were asking N@N to show it. So they did but then stopped when they thought we had been satisfied. But that still doesn't make any sense.

The least they can do is show it! The weekend, late night, anything I don't care as long as I see it.

The reason why N@N doesn't air those eps. is so that we as fans will appreciate the show more.
