Laverne and Shirley now airs at 8:00am - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I thought Lifetime got rid of L&S because it wasn't on at 11:00am today. I went to the L&S schedule at lifetime.com and found out that L&S will be airing M-F at 8:00am.

Here's a link to the schedule:

Yet another last minute change. I think The Nanny is now on seven times every weekday (same goes for The Golden Girls). And everyone complains about Cosby Show, Roseanne, and Full House, lol.

I hate last minute changes.Why can't they just leave the schedule alone or at least give us some kind of warning

TVJunkie101 · 06-14-2004, 03:02 PM

LOL, Pav. Yeah, Cosby Show is bitterly trashed for airing so many times, but that's on DIFFERENT networks. Frankly, Cosby Show could air 10 times a night on N@N and I wouldn't care. J/K but, actually I agree, 7 times a day is just a little too much for anyshow. I mean, they could have a really nice comedy block, but all that airs is Nanny and Golden Girls (thankfully I like them, LOL). Suddenly Susan and Mad About You were shoved to late night and L&S and DW air once a day at 8 and 8:30am, respectively. A nice block could air (8-9 DW, 9-10 L&S, 10-11 GG, 11-12 Nanny) or heck, even one episode of all their sitcoms (they have enough: Ellen, MAY, Caroline in the City, etc.0

I mean, if you don't like it, don't watch it, right?

Anyway, thankfully my TiVo detected the scheduled time change.

If I see that Fran Drescher one more time I'm gonna break my tv. LOL. Lifetime definitely needs some more sitcoms. I know Frasier and Will and Grace are coming, but it would be cool to see some older shows like Maude, MTM, and One Day at a Time.

TV Guy · 06-14-2004, 06:19 PM

It would be great to see some older shows, but I have a feeling that "Laverne & Shirley" has not performed as well as Lifetime had hoped, which is probably why it was cut down to one airing per day and pushed back to 8:00 am (a much less desirable and less important timeslot than late morning). Had it performed better, it might have opened the door for other shows from the not-so-recent past.

Moondance · 06-14-2004, 06:35 PM

8am is too early for me.

Laverne and Shirley is such a great show, too!

Nanny Fine · 06-14-2004, 08:50 PM

Well now I missed taping an ep of Laverne & Shirley that I didn't know was on at a different time and ended up with another episode of The Nanny that I already have.

Dummies.

8 a.m. is fine. I can tape whenever I'm not at work but still.

"Facts Of Life"

P.S. Happy TGIF y'all!

Moondance · 06-19-2004, 02:54 PM

Cheers is on everyday here! It plays 10 times a day on the weekdays....thankfully I have local channels that play both Cheers and Frasier

tiff7 · 08-24-2004, 04:56 PM

When is Cheers on???? I wish it was on @ a real time like 9-10 a.m. or 5-6 p.m. Though the show is on the weekends, sometimes Cheers isn't on due 2 a telethon or something weird.

Will some1 let me know by e-mail @ tiff_lisatony7@yahoo.com when Cheers & L&S are on? Thanx & have a gr8 week y'all!
