Episodes that Nick at Nite skip - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

boechsner · 03-28-2001, 07:50 PM

Ever since The Jeffersons came on Nick at Nite back in January of 1999, it seems to me that they always skip the following episodes:

George vs. Wall Street
The Strays (Part 1)
The Strays (Part 2)

Could anyone tell me if Nick at Nite ever aired them. Do they deal with controversial subject.

I ask this because the episode George vs. Wall Street should have aired right after the Lunch with Mama but Nick skipped to The Breakup Parts 1 and two and tonight Florence's Problem airs.

Lunch with Mama aired December 13, 1975
George vs. Wall Street December 20, 1975.
The Breakup (Part 1) January 3, 1976
The Breakup (Part 2) January 10, 1976
Florence's Problem January 24, 1976

typical nick at nite

Nick at Nite is a very confusing network. They seem to think that their viewers can't handle mature subject matter, but I hardly ever see them skip All in the Family episodes. That show is full of racial slurs and mature subject matter. Most of the people who watch nick at nite are mature enough to watch certain episodes, and if they are not it should be their parent's choice if they can watch or not. I remember seeing that episode in which George gets mugged, but that was years ago and whould like to see it again. Also they skip just about every episode of The Facts of Life. I for one am mature enough to handle those storylines, if only Nick at Nite would give us the chance.

Nick-at-Nite should change its name to Puritan-at-Nite so we could understand their madness.

I'd like to comment on the Archie tidbit.

All in the Family comes on at 11:00 EST right after the kiddies have gone to bed. So they can't hear the N word the chink, coon, etc. The Jeffersons "Wait" it comes on at Midnight EST yeah you got a point there. Nick at Nite is confused. With that being said in light of the material that was aired from AITF at that time in the 70s:

Will John Rocker rise again?

maybe they changed it to midnight because they'll show both of the episodes they skipped... i don't know

I TOTALLY agree! I've always wanted to see the episode where George gets mugged, but I'm actually just a teenager and I've just been watching "The Jeffersons" ever since Nick-at-Nite started showing them. Of course I'm grateful to Nick-at-Nite for airing George and Weezy and all our other favorite characters, but still it gets really annoying when you're coming close to an episode you'd REALLY like to see, and you can't because Nick-at-Nite skips it! And it wasn't just this. Remember back before, when the episodes would just go up to around where George and Florence have the squabble about Florence's retirement pay, and then Nick-at-Nite would start the WHOLE SERIES over again! That used to get on my last nerve, because there's several episodes in the last two seasons or so of "The Jeffersons" I've never even seen before. And oh, by the way I'm 17 and I've seen "All in the Family" and I've watched George say his fair share of bad words too, and it hasn't corrupted me. :-) I'm still a nice person, and I agree with the comment that "All in the Family" and "The Jeffersons" come on way after the kiddies have gone to bed. WHAT IS THIS...Puritan-at-Nite, as someone else above said. Oh well, I'll just count my blessings that Nick-at-Nite hasn't started the series over again. They aired Florence's retirement episode a couple of nights ago, and they're still going. Maybe this time they'll go all the way through. I've never seen the episode called "Sayonara" where Lionel and Jenny finally return from Japan, and announce that they plan to divorce either. I remember, I was really excited because it was close, and right when it was about 1 or 2 episodes away, Nick-at-Nite started over! I wanted to scream and almost did, ha! :-)

Oh well, I've bickered and complained enough. Been nice talkin' to everyone!

Angel80 · 06-27-2001, 10:14 AM

Yeah I know that Nick at Nite skips because have you ever watched 7th Heaven?I know it's on a differant channel but,they skip this one episode all the time!
What is Florences probablem about?

lil_weezy · 06-28-2001, 12:24 PM

NAN never show the episode where Weezy sister Maxine comes to see her after 20 something years. Matter of fact, I have never seen it.

boechsner · 06-30-2001, 02:23 AM

Actually, Nick at Nite has aired that episode called, Louise's Sister. At least they aired the last time around, I know because I recorded it.
