"Screen Gems Network" - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I have a question. I used to have a local channel where I live and from 12-1pm they would show Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie, the Partaridge Family (sp???) or The Monkees....They called it the "Screen Gems Network." It didn't look like anything local. What's up with this? Is it a channel or something? Is it still around? Thanks.

I loved the Screen Gems Network!

I remember every time Christmas came around, they'd show Christmas eps of all of their sitcoms. I remember...

"Facts of Life"
"Square Pegs"
"Benson"
"Diff'rent Strokes"
"The Jeffersons"
"The Flying Nun"
"Gidget"
"The Monkees"
"The Partridge Family"

I wish it'd return...

It was shown in my area too. I assumed it was shows that at one time were all produced by Screen Gems. If I remember Screen Gems was a popular production company in the late 1950's and to early 70's.
