What does the post say? It clearly states it.

[Scoobiedoo30]

I will only beable able to watch Mama's amily at 5:00 pm on Sunday Evening's.

AWESOME!!!!!!!

It will be GREAT to see "Hazel," "The Flying Nun," "Adam 12," "Dragnet," and "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" again. I haven't seen any of them in a verrrrrry long time. Also, my precious "Kate and Allie" will be shown! I've never seen "McHale's Navy," so it'll be nice to see that for the first time.

THIS is what TVLand's MerryThon used to be like. Of course, i Network still has obligations with the infomercial people, so they can't go all out, but they are doing a great job with what they have. They're not just loading up on episodes of the shows they regularly show!

I repeat, this is AWESOME and I really really love this channel! I can't wait to see what they're doing for 2007!

[Scoobiedoo30]

I have not seen Hazel since it was on The Family Channel

[TVJunkie101]

Thanks for the update Pav. I can't wait for this! 'i' is what TV Land should be (and used to be).

Any hope that "i" expands come January? I'm getting the impression it will ...

And btw, I get DirecTV and channel 255, idtv ("i" on DirecTV), airs on Saturday mornings at 6 and 6:30, "I Married Joan" and "Ozzie and Harriet". I kid you not. I'll take some screencaps soon and show you all.

That's awesome!

I've been totally craving shows from the 50s and 60s so much lately and seeing "Hazel" and "Alfred Hitchcock" are going to help that a lot.

Now we need some Donna Reed and "Father Knows Best" and all of the others that TVLand aired in 2002!

[crusty]

I am glad this rumor not only turned out to be true, but exceeded my expectations in the process.

Thank you Pavandabal, for your prompt response and schedule!

[TVJunkie101]

I have no idea why they aren't on the regular 'i' feed ...

[Pavan]

BH, Ozzie, Joan are JUST for DirecTV. They can't air that on the regular feed.
