Default Is Local Syndication like this for anyone else?

Not one TV show from the 70's or 80's being shown on any of your local stations? The only shows in local syndication here in Philly is

Becker
everybody Loves Raymond
Seinfeld
Yes Dear
King of Queens
Fraiser
Friends
Will and Grace
Just Shoot Me
Drew Carey
The Nanny
Mad About you
Home Improvement


Everything is from the 1990's and AFTER, ridiculous. This is why I fantasize about living in Chicago or New York

New York has gotten so much better in the last 2-3 years. Before that, the last 6-7 years it was like Philly, Solomon, lol.

The only show I can think of that is pre 80s here (the Buffalo area) is "Odd Couple." We had "Munsters" and "Mister Ed" in the mornings a year ago but they aren't on anymore.

A station in Rochester (that I unfortunately don't get) airs "Gomer Pyle," "My Three Sons," "Happy Days," "Laverne & Shirley," and "Andy Griffith" as well as some classic dramas too

Here in South Florida it's basically Raymond, Friends, Seinfeld, Simpsons, Drew Carey, Frasier, Becker, Malcolm, King of Queens. Becker, Drew Carey and Frasier are more or less late nite. Only 80s show that airs is Cheers. Taxi airs sometimes as filler between movies and sports. Home Improvement, Girlfriends and Parkers air too, on my local UPN.
