I am glad to see The Return of The Hogan Family at 7:00 am and 7:30 am Central Time on ABC Family

Dennis Dubois · 08-01-2006, 02:20 PM

I like this. However, Step By Step should be on more. I like Family Matters at 7AM as well as still at 1PM. I'd like to get in to The Hogan Family, but I'd only catch it occassionally.

masterblooregard · 08-01-2006, 05:33 PM

Yes, Hogan Family! This is cause for celebration.
To be honest I was sure that Step by Step wouldn't even make the fall line-up because they've had it since 2001 I believe and it seemed like ABC Family has been trying to phase it out slowly and get rid of it by the end of the year...Oh well, glad it's atleast back.

Pavan · 08-01-2006, 05:36 PM

They have renewed Step by Step before. I think it is under contract until 2010 even.

Scoobiedoo30 · 08-01-2006, 05:41 PM

I think Step By Step debuted on ABC Family on March 17, 2001 at 6:00 pm and 6:30 pm

TVJunkie101 · 08-01-2006, 08:46 PM

Wow, awesome to hear Step by Step is renewed for so long! I wish it'd go back to an hour though.

Buffyboy323 · 08-01-2006, 09:14 PM

So are Family Matters, Grounded For Life, and Full House still on in the afternoons, as well as the mornings?

Dennis Dubois · 08-01-2006, 10:05 PM

Full House has the same air times with no additional air times. Family Matters and Grounded For Life are the only shows getting more time opposed to how much they're on now. Probably, for instance, Family Matters 1PM airing will be repeated the next morning at 7AM like Full House. Same with Grounded For Life, so they won't overplay the shows like Nick at Nite does.

BTW, does anyone know how Family Matters does on ABC Family. That's my most favorite show on the channel, and I was just curious. I know it aired since 2003, but they never gave it a good time slot after they moved it from 6-7PM.

I agree about the timeslot. It was on at 6:00 and 6:30pm from October-December, then Full House took over the whole damn Channel!

I don't understand why they would want to air the same Family Matters and Grounded For Life episodes, instead of doubling up on Step By Step, my favorite show on the channel. UGH!

I posted the changes. Whatever is not listed will remain the same. I thought that was given?

Grounded for Life and Full House are on in the mornings on WEEKENDS only. Family Matters (yes repeats of the 1-2pm airings) and Hogan Family will be on in the mornings on weekedays.

Uuuum...yeah, I got that.....That still has nothing to do with Doubling Step By Step.....

I didn't quote that...

tvlover85 · 08-02-2006, 02:13 AM

I say dump one airing of "The 700 Club" and put "Step By Step" on from 9-10 AM weekdays (right after "The Hogan Family"). Maybe a shorter-lived sitcom could go in the 10:30 AM slot (8 Simple Rules anyone?) I am glad though that I'll get to enjoy some more of the great 80's sitcom "The Hogan Family" (I used to watch reruns on Pax, and barely remember the runs on NBC and CBS; none of our locals picked up the reruns in the early 90's) and at a convenient time before my 9:30 AM class.
