What syndicated classic sitcoms are in your area?

We have sitcoms here (i.e. Roseanne), but not classic (classic meaning pre late 80's).

When I went to bed last night around 2:30 am A channel on my tv had The Odd Couple on. I was shocked.

we have "Mork & Mindy" and every now and then one of our channels has "The Andy Griffith show" and another one will have "The Lucy show"

My local WB station shows all 70s sitcoms such as Three's Company, Taxi, The Odd Couple, ect, but their on really late at night.

Ant-Lox · 07-10-2004, 10:50 AM

The Carol burnett variety show comes on in my area...

spunkygirl · 07-10-2004, 11:10 AM

I love Lucy and the Andy Griffith Show

Lucy, Andy, and I found out a few nights ago our WB station is playing The Odd Couple every weeknight.

I refuse to respond to this thread because it supports the fact that a show has to be old to be classic.

But, since Im responding anyways, and although I still believe shows currently airing are just as classic as shows from the 50s, I should share my knowledge.

The only sitcom pre-late-80s that airs on my local channels is Cheers.

I didn't say that all classics were pre-80's, I was just curious what older shows air in syndication. Read a little carefully next time.

Right, but I didn't mean that all classics only happened pre late 80's. Another words I'm just curious what kind of older sitcoms air in other people's markets (since none air here). Sorry for the confusion.

I Love Lucy (and occasionally We Love Lucy and Season 1 of the The Lucy Show), The Andy Griffith Show, and Cheers air on the local WB.

Happy Days airs once a week on the local ABC.

And...sadly...that's about it.

On the local Fox (KTTV 11 in Los Angeles) station, they air I Love Lucy weekdays at 11 & 11:30am, plus weekend afternoons 4-5:30pm (if not pre-empted by sports). They also air M*A*S*H overnights, plus Sunday afternoons (again, if not pre-empted by sports) and late nights.

On KTLA 5, L.A.'s WB, they air Andy Griffth afternoons at 2 & 2:30pm, and some Sunday afternoons at 12:30pm. Taxi also airs weeknights at 12:30am. I remember back about 10-12 years, this station aired a block of The 3 Stooges, Munsters, and Gidget/Monkess on weekend afternoons from 12-3pm.

KCBS (and sometimes KCAL) air All in the Family on the weekends.
