This sounds like such a great channel. Wish I had it here in NYC:P

Pavan · 07-31-2008, 03:53 PM

You don't have WGN America? I didn't have it until about 2002 either, but it is now mostly everywhere really.

catlover79 · 07-31-2008, 04:00 PM

icecream · 07-31-2008, 04:18 PM

wow, that's a lot of changes. Bewitched and Jeannie airing seven days a week (and for two hours on weekends) is great news!

Airing in the morning they probably won't get preempted for baseball either. And 7th Heaven is a pleasant surprise. It's back in the slots ABCFamily used to air it. If it stays where it is on Hallmark that's four times a day.

good timeslot for Coach on Saturdays, surprised it's not on the weekday lineup. And cutting AFV down to once a day is good, although I don't like it booting Corner Gas out of primetime. Is the Bob and Tom show a talk show? I already don't like it for pushing Corner Gas back. It's odd that WGN has been advertising Becker a lot but it's still moving an hour later.
overall good changes
Jeannie, Bewitched, 7th Heaven and Coach are joining the lineup along with WKRP!

Pavan · 07-31-2008, 04:23 PM

I believe The Bob and Tom Show is a radio talk show or something, similar to The Wendy Williams Show. That's all I know about that.

Hallmark is not making any changes until October, when Cheers comes.

chris31989 · 07-31-2008, 06:02 PM

What a great schedule. This is the best one I've seen in a while from a network. WGN America is off to a good start. Bewitched and Jeannie are great. I remember when TV38 in Boston (UPN at the time) aired both shows in the 9AM weekday hour, so that's a treat. I'm also glad Homicide is still on the schedule. It's also nice to see Matlock stay. I never really watch Coach, but it also fits well.

y2k3Joker · 07-31-2008, 06:14 PM

When is "in The Heat of the Night" on?

Did I miss it somewhere? I can't see it on the schedule

y2k3Joker · 07-31-2008, 06:16 PM

I see it now, starting Sept 15th, 11 am

I live in Rego Park in Queens, NYC. Pav, is there anyway you can check if I have it?
