Default ABC Family

I hate when they overplay the previews for a ABC Family Original Movie...example "Crimes of Fashion". It seems like at every commercial break they air the previews for that movie. It's driving me bonkers! Anyone feel the same way? BTW I liked the movie.

This should be on the general board.

It's an ABC Family original movie, of course it's gonna get alot of promotion

Yeah. I agree with everything you said.

Why is everyone posting topics that belong on the General board?

I don't think I watch anything on ABC Family, but a lot of networks run promos for their own programming ad nauseum, especially if it's original programming.

The only original movie I really liked was Beautiful Girl. Abc family isn't very consisent, but I'm forced to watch it because some of my favorite shows are on there.

Its bad enough when they show a commercial for an ABC Family original movie once or twice during every commercial break...but then, sometimes RIGHT AFTER showing one of those ads, they show another one at the bottom of the screen when the channel returns to the show or movie that was airing. I mean come ON! Its overkill...

Aside from that nonsense, ABC Family will be one of my favorite channels once they start airing Gilmore Girls, 3rd Rock from the Sun, Grounded for Life and Wonder Years. I also like Boy Meets World, Full House, Step by Step, Whose Line is it Anyway?, Family Matters and 7th Heaven.

I had to edit this post a few times, as I kept remembering cool ABC Family shows that I had forgot to add. What a great channel...

One last thing... Bring back Growing Pains!!!

OK, I'm done...
