Worst network that aired FOL? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Which network treated the show the worst?

I say the hallmark channel, their editing was the worst! I have a few episodes taped and their time runs about 19-20 minutes. They also had NO promos, NO marathons, they skipped a lot of random episodes, they skipped half of season 8, and they ran through the series only ONCE and pulled the plug after only 3 months!

I'd have to vote Hallmark channel.. I hope they have it on TVLand again soon.

Hallmark--I didn't even know FOL was on that channel until AFTER the fact! Horrible promotion!!!

Hallmark Channel, they manipulated the show by cutting out some of the most memorable scenes from the show and/or the longest scenes of the show, so they could cram in more commercials. Let's face it, this network is a living hell for sitcoms.

i voted for hallmark too but they never do anything right with almost any show that they buy the rights to

Hallmark.
I thought it was weird how they showed some of the episode then played the theme song. Plus it did not last long on that channel.

Hallmark, I was gonna try watching it but they took it off too suddenly.

MsOrange · 07-19-2006, 05:35 PM

Defintley Hallmark.....

KristinHerreraFan · 07-20-2006, 10:56 AM

Can you believe Hallmark has gotten 14 votes, and no other networks have gotten a vote yet?

Seriously, Hallmark deserves an AWARD for being such a terrible network, every show they put on gets treated like crap.

DOPEY85xxx · 07-20-2006, 02:31 PM

i didnt even know it was on until it was gone didnt they edit 2 minutes from each show?

KristinHerreraFan · 07-24-2006, 07:57 PM

no, MORE. it was at least 4-5 minutes. I have some episodes taped from that network and their episodes run about 19-20 minutes, the original episode is 24 minutes.

They completely butchered "The Four Musketeers" and "Store Games" I have nick at nite tapings of both of those aswell and they are MUCH better.

DOPEY85xxx · 07-25-2006, 10:39 AM

4-5 minutes from a show are a few scenes !!!well whatever channel picks it up I hope they will run each episode in its entirety.

Buffyboy323 · 07-25-2006, 11:44 PM

I watched it like the last 2 or 3 weeks it was on Hallmark. And I saw how they skipped so many episodes in the later seasons. You can tell by their hair, LMAO......Hallmark needs to go!...."Family Ties" was also cut so bad. They didn't even air the good eps. They stopped airing the show like 2 weeks after it was on. Didn't even give the sucker a chance. UGH!...For once, Nick@Nite isn't in the worst editing ever category.

I HIGHLY doubt any cable channel that will pick up in the future will air it in it's entirety today. Our best bet is DVDs.

Antenna TV also cut so much from each episode that I felt like I was getting "bonus" material when I watched episodes on the Pluto app.
