Do You Think That If "The College Years"... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

had aired on Saturday Mornings, instead of "The New Class" , that it would have lasted longer than one season?

I mean if "The New Class" could be on for 7 seasons, I wonder if that was just it's time slot.

I think that if the "SBTB:TCY" were on TNBC, instead of in Primetime, it would have lasted longer. I don't know how long, but definately more than a single season.

What do you think?

It would have lasted longer because it wouldn't had competition. But I think the fact that the show was on primetime with the big guys is what actually convinced the actors to do the show in the first place.

Yes, I think it would have lasted A LOT longer....BUT they wanted primetime and the pay wouldn't have been as much...therefore, they wouldn't have agreed to do it. I doubt it would be as good though, they would've had to really watch the theme and situations of the show...and face it, TCY was targeted toward the kids who grew up with SBTB, it wasn't meant for new viewers (young kids).
