If you had the choice to remove 2 sitcoms from N@N, what would yours be?

TripperFan · 06-06-2005, 10:53 AM

As much as I love Cosby, it's been running continuously now for years - I'd give it a rest for a bit.

The other would be Rosanne. I loved the show the first few seasons, but stop watching regularly the last 3 or 4 seasons I guess so it wouldn't break my heart to see it replaced. (Although I love it when they run the Halloween eps - those were her best).

I LOVE ROSEANNE, But It's Gotta Go. I Mean I Have Seen Every Episode At Least 10 Times And Im Sorry But They Play It To Much And They Need To Put It Either At A Worse Time Spot Or Take It Of.

Roseanne and Fresh Prince. i can't stand Roseanne and Fresh Prince isn't that good and its on several stations. i'd also dump The Cosby show for overexposure and add:

Kate and Allie
227
PUNKY BREWSTER
The Facts of life (again)!
and Blossom

You might get a few of your wants on June 21 since N@N is celebrating its 20th anniversary, they'll be showing shows that they started with .Such as Growing Pains etc. They'll be doing this for 3 nights.

I suppose the folks at N@N would know better than I. But, from what I've gleaned from old TV Guides and recalled from my memory, it was somewhat of a gradual changeover that gained momentum following the introduction of TV Land and the turn of the millenium. N@N changed not only its shows, but its attitude, as well, reflected by its promos, to appeal to a younger audience -- the parents of kids who had been tuned into Nickelodeon. An interesting note is that when TV Land first came to be, it was officially known as Nick at Nite's TV Land.

Rhiannon · 06-14-2005, 01:14 PM

I'd get rid of Roseanne and Cosby. I want to see Facts of Life put on!
