That sucks. I love GFL! Pavan, it'll only be on fridays?

[JulieSomoski]

Wow, ABC Family is really trying to play up That 70's Show. I really cannot stand that show at all - it almost seems out of place on the network. The marathon, all the daily airings, and why'd they have to replace GFL? They should have done 8 Simple Rules at 6:00, then Grounded for Life at 6:30.

[Pavan]

Grounded will be Fridays 10-11pm and weekends 10-11am. Damn blog is having server problems. 8 Simple Rules does well 6-7pm, no point in replacing one of the half-hours.

[ryan423]

I think it's rediculous that they cant remove one airing of Full House (either the 12pm-1pm or 3-4pm) and put That's 70's show there. I love GFL. 8SR and GFL are great together. It was my 6-8pm lineup.

[ryan423]

Pav, now that I'm wondering, how is What I Like about you doing for the network? Hopefully well cause it's already leaving the CW in the fall. i'd hate to loose it from both networks.

[Pavan]

Not sure, it must be doing well since it is still on 4-5pm.

[ryan423]

THANKS FOR THE INFO

[DSfan]

It's too bad they're shafting Grounded for Life. If I was them, I would make the schedule be:
3-4: WILAY
4-5: Grounded for Life
5-6: still Gilmore Girls
6-7: 8 Simple Rules
7-8: 70s show

that way they can get rid of the full house repeats and air more of a variety.

this summer is going to be dominated by that 70s show

4-5 on FX (i think)
4-5 on my local fox
5-6 on wsbk (im pretty sure thats when its on lol)
7-8 on abcfamily
+ coming to the N

[Superbowl]

So happy 8 Simple Rules is staying where it is. Still watch it every day.

[ryan423]

If they wanted more variety in the schedule, they'd cut repeat airings and bring back everwood. Why not move Gilmore Girls to 3 and get rid of Full House. Then they can bring GFL into the 5pm hour. They'd then have 4 hours of comedy that suits everyone and GG would still be on for the people who watch it.

I don't think they'd get rid of Full House, because if they're airing it 4 times a day, it must be getting pretty good ratings.

What happened to Boy Meets World again? They should get that back, as well as Wonder Years and more airings of Step by Step.

I know,plus as someone else already mentioned,the show is airing on the-N in a few weeks,plus the series is still gonna be aired on FX and in syndication.Now if that ain't overkill,then i don't know what is.
