i'm watching it now. i missed the first minute or so but from what i can tell, the cuts really don't seem all that different from the N@N ones, which weren't too bad at all.

The ep that's on now is kind of boring because it's ALL BASEBALL, doesnt really have a sitcom feel. This is my first time seeing this ep

Yea I to am planning to tune in every night its on even though I have the epps on dvd it's nice to see it on the air.

These aren't the best episodes to be airing first for ION, but oh well, it still is Who's the Boss?. And I found the editing done by ION to be wonderful. There's only 2 commercial breaks, and they even left intact the full theme song. I had forgotten that they had almost a totally different sounding theme for the sixth season, so it was cool to see again, since NAN never bothered to show it when they aired the show.

Maybe they have higher hopes for Who's the Boss?
It's the same way with The Wonder Years. Just last night I was watching, and they skipped about 30 seconds of the opening credits, then aired a commercial 2 minutes later. Then it came back on for 3 minutes, and another commercial was on. It really doesn't make sense at all!

Another thing you need to remember--WTB was already chopped down to current commercial standards (time) in the recent past so ION may not have had to introduce any additional edits. Alice on the other hand hasn't run in quite some time so more of it needs to be chopped out (commercial time allotted per episode now is quite a bit more than was back in the mid-late '70s, and even from the '90s when Alice was last rerun)

I am watching it from 8:00 pm until 9:00 pm Central Time on WPXL

Carrie · 07-17-2007, 01:56 PM

I am definitely watching WTB on ION! I was so happy to see it on. I haven't seen the show is years so it brings back some nice memories. Unfortunately, I was never able to get it on tape then. I have season 1 on dvd, but that's all. Too bad season 2 probably won't be coming out.

Scoobiedoo30 · 07-17-2007, 02:11 PM

I am looking forward to Tonight Airing of Who's The Boss?

TALLguyinKY · 07-19-2007, 03:08 AM

I've been taping "Designing Women", and I will definitely start taping "Who's the Boss?" when season 2 starts, since I have the season 1 DVD.

I've only seen bits and pieces of that ep, but I've heard really good things about it. Anybody know when ION will air it?

You're right. As I am watching these episodes, I notice that these are the same exact syndie copies that were used in the late 90s and early 2000's. I guess us WTB? fans got lucky. It's a shame about Alice. They edited that show so damn poorly.
