why is W&G on Lifetime already? doesn't it get played enough on WGN and on local syndication?

Seriously...

Or is it leaving WGN???

I guess Unsolved Mysteries is doing decent if they are keeping it on twice a day in the middle of the day.

Shouldn't Lifetime wait and see how the ratings are before getting rid of it so soon?

JT · 07-03-2005, 08:11 PM

UM has been with Lifetime for years and years now (I think Lifetime even made new episodes of it), so yeah, its safe to say it gets great ratings.

I'm indifferent to W&G joining the lineup. I for one can't until "Reba" comes next year!

I think what Lifetime should do is just put Golden Palace mixed in with the Golden Girls, like when they finish season 7, instead of going back to the beginning, air the Golden Palace season, then go back to season 1, and so on...

MikeLutton · 07-03-2005, 09:39 PM

so why is Golden place being replaced already on Lifetime in spetember is it stil going be on or just be over shaowed by will and grace.mean people have waited long time for this show be on they cant take it off now.

Been on since 1992... and yes, they did make new episodes in 2001 and 2002, and then Robert Stack died.

There are some segments produced in the 15 year history of the show that Lifetime has never shown.

The reason I ask is about a year and a half ago... (Late 2003), Lifetime relegated it to 1am Sunday Mornings(death slot). Then in January 2004 it came back to airing once a day after Providence flopped, and then last summer it was back to airing 2 episodes each weekday.

U.M. Fanatic · 07-03-2005, 10:26 PM

This doesn't make sense. Lifetime is going to air The Golden Palace for one month and then quit?

I am, of course, very pleased to see Unsolved Mysteries still on the schedule twice a day!

MikeLutton · 07-03-2005, 10:37 PM

hey trust me im pissed off 2 i been waiting so long see that show now thanks to wil and grace its being taken off the shelf after 4 and half weeks whats the deal.does not make any sense at all. i rather see golden place then wil and grace

Dean Winchester · 07-03-2005, 10:44 PM

well, I believe the Golden Palace was just a one-time airing

Pavan · 07-03-2005, 10:52 PM

Will & Grace will be leaving WGN this fall, I believe. Golden Palace as its own is only for the summer, I'm not sure what they will do after September 16 with it. One possibility is to air it in the Golden Girls rotation, as someone mentioned here. And ALL the episodes of Golden Palace will air anyway for those 6-7 weeks, so TAPE them. It's not that hard to do.

I thought it was coming to Lifetime in 2006

Guess the reason why Mad About You is leaving Lifetime is that it is going to Nick At Nite in 2006.

USTVFanFromUK · 07-03-2005, 10:59 PM

Mad About You will also be joining Lifetime's rival network Oxygen in 2006.

I wonder if the N@N/Oxygen contract with Mad About You is the same as the one both networks have with Roseanne.

So is Lifetime losing the rights or removing it due to low ratings???

(confused)
