Do you get to pick for the whole night or just those shows listed? Not that it matters, because at the rate they show their shows, you favorite episode is bound to air three times every month, lol.

I see N@N is already planning marathons for it's "Safe" pick-up. By "Safe" I mean, they have the successful Cosby Show, so of course the spin-off will do great. Which it probably will. It's just that the more daring of the two recent pick-ups (ADW and NR) is already at 4 in the morning with no stunts planned. And the Summer marathons isn't a stunt, because it's done every year, but even then NewsRadio gets the 2-6 timelsot.

This is not NewsRadio as a show versus A Different World as a show. It's just a post of mine upset at N@N.

[Pavan]

Just those shows listed. They will air in their regular slots. One lucky viewer will get to choose the episodes. That's all.

Exactly...N@N's too scared to risk questionable ratings if their contest winner were to program the slots with, say, *gasp* Murphy Brown and NewsRadio

Makes good business sense, but sucks from a viewer's aspects.

Right. And as a viewer, I'm always in the minority. Most of the shows I like are underrated and treated like crap. I got all excited when "Wings" came to N@N. We all know how that turned out. So, I have a little resentment over all the popular shows on N@N now. Maybe it's because when a show does well on N@N, they tend to get marathons often, and in a couple cases, aired all night for a week (Roseanne, I believe they aired nothing else for a week). If a show doesn't get GREAT ratings, it's hidden in a late late timeslot. And replaced with one of the two Go-To shows, Roseanne or Fresh Prince.

I got all excited thinking N@N would have a week-long introductory marathon for "NewsRadio" like they did for every other show that's come on in recent years. They're planning stunts for "A Different World". Would it kill them to make a stunt for "NewsRadio"? Or even put it on at a decent time? Not too early. But would Midnight be too much?

At least they say VERY nice things about "NewsRadio" on the N@N website. So I think they like the show. Maybe they're just afraid it won't be successful or something because it's not a Cosby Show spin-off.

Geez, they are pushing A Different World to the limit.

And its not really shocking how you can only select those few. Just by how many times theyve aired it, we know Roseanne and Fresh Prince are the breadwinners at Nick at Nite. I'd like to see more Full House and Murphy Brown, but they'll probally be phased out soon. At least we get enough on ABC Family when it comes to Full House..

At least there won't be anymore Jeff Foxworthy..

[flashgordon]

N@N sucks!!!! The whole purpose of N@N was to show vintage TV shows, not shows that I could catch on 4 OTHER NETWORKS. I know NEWSRADIO is not one of them, but seriously: haven't we seen enough of Roseanne, Fresh Prince and Cosby from everywhere else? Even A DIFFERENT WORLD and FULL HOUSE(why that show is still on amazes me) can be seen on various other networks. I'd like to be able to catch some shows that I don't see that often anymore.

ADAMANTIUM hit the nail on the head. WINGS was a great show, but they treated it like crap. And don't get me started on how they treated Perfect Strangers & Head of the Class.

What really sucks is that you can't voice you opinions to these people(unless something has changed). Can anyone leave feedback on their website? Can anyone conatct them through e-mail?

Okay, there's my rant. Let me know what I left out.

Thanks,
Jon

The September Schedule for September loos Awsome

[JulieSomoski]

Hey Pavan, how are A Different World and NewsRadio doing for NIckatNIte so far? I'm sure Different World's doing fine, just because its a Cosby spinoff.

[ILuvZackMorris]

Full HOuse is still airing cuase it gets good ratings. And only 4 seasons are on DVD (4th actually comes out this week). It'll be 2-3 years before the whole set of Full House is out on DVD. Lets see - they still are overairing Roseanne and Fresh Prince of Bel Air, while Full House gets one episode and episodes are skippped over constantly cause they are Valentines Day or Halloween or Christmas.........why can't they just air the episodes in order?

I think the schedule should be more fair. How about airing only 2 TOTAL roseanne and fresh prince a day (no repeating at 2 AM) and air the Muppet Show or something? I'd love to see that back on television!

[Pavan]

[L&OFan4Eva]

Where's Full House? Did it expire?

[Pavan]

Full House is M-F nights (Tues-Sat technically) 5AM...clearly listed.

[benjamoon]

Wow, Newsradio must have really bombed - I thought the point of a soft launch was to take the pressure off it but they yank it anyways. That's too bad - at least Mad About You is back to everynight

[Scoobiedoo30]

I am glad to see Mad About You be showed weeknight's at 3:30 am on NickNite
