Thanks Pav, glad to see Wings back on N@N. Does this mean TVLAND won't continue with the Friday Marathons?

TripperFan · 04-06-2005, 11:31 PM

I know this is OT, but does this mean that 3am will be the only time that "Murphy" is on?! Please tell me it's not, b/c I would really hate that! I'm glad to see "Wings" coming back, I just wonder how that'll affect MB.

It sounds like "Murphy Brown" has laid the usual egg that it does whenever it's rerun on a daily basis. It was a great series, and I really enjoyed it when it was first run on CBS, but it's been noted and proven that Candice Bergen's "Murphy" is simply too caustic a character for viewers to watch on a daily (or nightly) basis.

I agree. I also loved watching Murphy when I was younger, but I just don't enjoy the reruns. It's not one of those shows that I can watch over and over again, like Wings.

I'm glad to see Wings back, even if it is at 3:30 AM again.

I watched the first season or so of Murphy Brown back in the day, and got bored VERY quickly.

I am soooooooooooooooo happy Wings is coming back! As for the horrible hour, thank goodness for DVR. I just wonder which episode they'll start with -- where they left off, with Helen just back from NY and Gail in the picture?

PS -- what's the URL for that story?

When they exclude a show from network promos that is always very bad

On Pav's schedule he posted for upcoming, what's on at 1:30 after WTB? Is it Roseanne, I thought it was still an hour of WTB

TV DVD Fan · 04-07-2005, 11:08 PM

Come on Paramount!

Why not air Wings in a better time slot though? Not too many people wake up quite that early! I know I don't!

Like I said, if it's not listed in the changes, the schedule remains the same. So, yes Roseanne is on at 1:30am right now, so it'll air on April 18, too.

I'm happy that "Wings" will be back on N@N, but 3:30 AM is such a crappy time!!!

and That's a bummer about "Murphy Brown". I used to watch it when I was young, and now I'm rediscovering it again on N@N, and I'm really enjoying it. 3 AM sucks; almost as much as 3:30 AM.

Those happen to be 2 shows I've never even had the remotest desire to watch. And it

me off no end that they took away airtime from Wings.

For those of you wondering, TV Land has just announced starting Friday, May 6, Wings on Friday evenings will be replaced with I Love Lucy. You can still catch 5 episodes of Wings every week on Nick@Nite starting April 18.
