TV LAND will be renamed the Family Entertainment Network in January of 2005 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

LOL-Just Joking. I feel TV LAND should be renamed the Family Entertainment Network because they are so against controversial scenes, words, and episodes. Most of TV land eps are edited in a way so that the entire Family can watch together which is why It should be called the Family Entertainment Network. Anyone Agree?

You had me going.... until I read that it was you who started the thread.

I think TVLand should stay TVLand.... but either way, I won't need it within a few years, thanks to DVD.

But I hope TVLand stays around for a long time, for future generations -- to enjoy classics from the 1950s-1980s (and eventually acquiring later shows as time goes on)

I call it TV BLAND.

I believed this for a second or two until I saw it was fake. I hope TV Land will stay the same and at the same time embrace new shows as the years progress. As time goes by I would like a few more 80s shows on there, but I don't want them to forget the really old stuff either.

TVLand had better not change its format of classic TV or I am
going to be there to kick their collective butts!

I don't know why tv land censors these shows since they originally aired back in the 70's. They aren't controversial anymore.

I disagree. It should be renamed "The Nick-at-Nite Wannabe Network".

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't TV Land air every episide of All In The Family uncut a few years back even the more daring episodes?

Yes, they did air the show unedited back in 1998.

Was that because the Network was NEW at the time?
