TV Shows with Two Different Titles - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Who can remember past TV Shows that, when syndicated, had a different name?

For instance...

"Happy Days" was "Happy Days Again"

"Marcus Welby M.D." was "Robert Young, Family Doctor"

"The Andy Griffith Show" was "Andy of Mayberry"

Real People was More Real People

"The Dick Van Dyke show" was rerun on CBS as "The Dick Van Dyke daytime show"-I think (I think that, because, back when N@N started showing it, they started with a week-long marathon of it, and some of the episodes had that title on them)

"Dragnet"-the first one, from the 50s-was rerun with the title "Badge (whatever Joe Fridays badge number was)"

When they syndicated I Love Lucy's last season, they called in "Lucy in Connecticut."

treky · 03-08-2005, 03:32 AM

some episodes of "The Lucy-Desi comedy hour" were edited to half hours, and were shown in sydnication as "We Love Lucy".

These Friends Of Mine/Ellen, however TFOM episodes are just "Ellen" on reruns and DVD

starting in 1965, CBS started rerunning "The Dick Van Dyke show" during the daytime, with the title "The Dick Van Dyke daytime show".
Back when N@N started showing it, they started with a week-long marathon, and they kept that title on some of the episodes. I've heard that TV LAND also shows some episodes with that title.

Well actually that is because during its first season it was called "Two Guys, a Girl and A Pizza Place" and then somewhere during its origianl run (season 2 or 3 i believe) the pizza place was all-together dropped and the show became known as "Two Guys and A Girl". So when it got syndicated they simply used the second title, which is odd since the DVD release is going by the title of "Two Guys, A Girl and A Pizza Place".
