It is a shame that Thea is leaving the lineup, I also thought that it was vastly underrated. I have DVRed many of the episodes.

What is with all these judge shows? Why are they so popular?

icecream · 08-14-2008, 10:20 PM

There's definitely too many judge shows on. I don't mind Judge Judy but other than that enough already.

I agree - I'll only watch Judge Judy once so often, but besides that, every other judge show sucks. Why would BET want to trade in good shows like Thea, Sanford, and Diff'rent Strokes for more court shows?

I was getting used to having Diff'rent Strokes on BET. And I never really liked Sanford anyway.

PrettyinPink55 · 08-15-2008, 12:45 PM

Sad to see Diff'rent Strokes go.

I hope another network picks it up, though I doubt that'll happen anytime soon, seeing as TV Land has completely revamped their schedule...

I can see a farewell marathon for Sanford or Thea but not for Diffrent Strokes. Farewell Marathons should only be for short-lived shows that are no where to be found on DVD

Pavan · 08-27-2008, 02:13 PM

Just a reminder, Strokes farewell marathon is this Friday.

Also, I'll be posting the BET September schedule shortly. We know Judge Karen and Judge Hatchett are coming, but there will also be a sitcom coming. It's a 90s sitcom and is not airing anywhere currently. Care to take guesses, Solomon and crew? I'll announce it on the blog tomorrow.

I'm guessing it's a black sitcom?-LOL. Our luck, it'll be a crappy 90's UPN sitcom

At least we know it isn't Fresh Prince, thank god!

Pavan · 08-27-2008, 04:34 PM

Obviously it is African American, Julie. And no it isn't from UPN.

Wow, it isn't a UPN show? It must be a pretty big show, then. Is the show airing anywhere in syndication, or is strictly airing nowhere at all at the time?

Pavan · 08-27-2008, 04:47 PM

It's not airing anywhere at all...locally or on cable.

JulieSomoski · 08-27-2008, 04:58 PM

I really have no idea what it could be. I'll just wait it out I guess

TVFactFan · 08-27-2008, 06:13 PM

Here and Now-1992
Out All Night-1992
Sons and Singers-1990
