Did "Beaver" reruns ever air regularly on Nick at Nite? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I was reading Wikipedia's site, and according to its "Programs that aired on Nick at Nite" section, "LITB" reruns aired on Nick at Nite from 1989-1994. My question is: Is it true?

I honestly don't know for sure, but I don't remember reading about it being on there. I know TBS showed it in the 80's but I am not sure when it left it

I think that's a mistake. I don't remember LITB ever being on Nick at Nite.

yes; it is a mistake. We first got cable in 1988; and LITB wasn't on NICK AT NITE. It was on TBS though.

i dont recall beaver on nick either. i had many vhs tapes back then, but i agree it was on tbs at one time.

oh the good ole days, when tbs showed classic tv shows, nick@nite still was on track, and there were no reality shows smelling up prime time

i hardly call what tv today entertainment. i wonder just how much worse it will get. though i never watch current tv anyway.

well, i can't be sure, but i do know that i saw Leave it to Beaver in the early 80's. Was Nick at Nite around then? And i do know we didn't get the channel that showed the New Leave it to Beav. But the original was definitely on before TV Land.

NICK AT NITE started in 1986, and, like others have said, they didn't show LITB; but TBS did in the late 80s; along with THE NEW LEAVE IT TO BEAVER.

i don't know the channel, like i said, but i lived in Vermont from 1980-85 and I know it was on at 5 p.m. in the afternoon. In fact, probably 82 or 83.

I have a steel trap memory and I can conclusively say that LITB never aired on N@N.

N@N had a ton of shows like Patty Duke and F-Troop...no LITB though.

However, if your local market was like mine when I was growing up as a young kid (for me, Memphis Tennessee) LITB was on every afternoon in syndication. It aired in the same hour block with TAGS for probably a decade or more in Memphis. I suspect many local markets did similar type things...

LITB first aired on TV Land at or around the time of its debut, in '96/'97 and, to my knowledge, has never been removed from the schedule.
