Perfect Strangers on n@n - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Why can't good shows like Perfect Strangers and Growing Pains be on Nick At Nite. I know I saw PS on TVLand. So how come shows like this can't be on N@N?

09-05-2001, 01:25 PM

Actually, I'm wondering why PS isn't aired *anywhere* now.....

chriszme · 09-07-2001, 03:59 AM

I searched and it shows that it's airing on
KDUB2.

Where is that channel anyway??

Pavan · 09-07-2001, 11:24 AM

Yes it will start on KDUB, which is a WB in Rapid City, SD!
Starting September 17th! Weekdays 9-10AM and 1-2AM.
Maybe locals have rights to it again???

chriszme · 09-07-2001, 02:25 PM

I think they always had the option to buy it.
No one just did. I would like it if my local airs it.

It seems like tons of WB's are going to start airing it on the 17th! These WB's have something in common--they air the same programming! Things like Saved by the Bell, Rosie, Taz Mania, Richie Rich, and now Perfect Strangers!
I wish I had a WB like that! Anyone have PS coming to their WB! Please everyone check that site!

Pavanbadal, which zip code did you use to get these listings, because I've been trying to find out where these stations are located. Are any of these stations located on satellite?

"Perfect Strangers" will air on my WB starting tomorrow at 9:00-10:00 AM, and 1:00 AM-2:00 AM

Perfect Strangers will be airing on the cable only WB. It's a cable channel for small markets that don't have a local WB station. Since it's a cable channel, it shows the same programming on every cable system. In different markets, they give these cable channels fake call letters to make them look like they're real WB affiliates. All the shows on there are Warner Bros shows, so it doesn't really cost much money to run it.

Nick at Nite and TVLand, and any other Viacom channel has rights still.
This show has aired on Nick at Nite for specials and TVLand too.
1.) Block Party Summer, Party Crasher Fridays (July 2000, 6 episodes) on Nick at Nite
2.) Nick at Nite's Game Show Case (1 episode aired, November 2000)
3.) TVLand's 48 Hour Merrython, 2 Christmas episodes aired (Dec 2000)
4.) Paul's Ultimate Fan Hour on TVLand (1 episode April 2001)

Pocahantas: Maryanne, I know there's something desperatly missing in your life!

Maryanne: How did you know?

Pochantas: I saw it in your eyes, I read it in your face, I read it on your bumpersticker that says "Welcome, Shriners"!

So does this mean Perfect Strangers's rights are owned by N@N!? Why aren't they playing it then. N@N can be real cheap sometimes!! What other shows do they have that they don't play??

plappy · 09-22-2001, 04:52 PM

I heard a rumor that TNN is considering airing the show on a Saturday show block in Fall 2002 and that it'll be included in a New Years eve weekend TVLand Fandemonium called the best of the 80's. There are RUMORS, these aren't true (yet), but if it is true, I'll update it.
