Shows currently over-exposed in reruns - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

What are some shows in re-runs that you think are being over-exposed? Here are some I thought of:

The Nanny - Nick at Nite

George Lopez - Nick at Nite

Roseanne - TV Land

The Golden Girls - Hallmark (it's also on WEtv from 5-7pm)

Touched By An Angel - Hallmark

CSI franchise - Spike

That '70s Show (on 3 channels [FX, The N, ABCFamily], too many)

These are really the only channels I pay attention to, so there are probably more.

Bonanza
Gunsmoke
The Andy Griffith Show
Mash
Seinfeld
The Simpsons

I love The Golden Girls but I agree reruns are getting played too much. Roseanne also airs once a week on Oxygen but it's a daily marathon. My local CW also airs two episodes in the mornings. I agree with you on George Lopez and The Nanny they get aired way too much. That's 70's Show wasn't really over exposed when it was just on FX. Touched by an Angel just recently started being aired multiple times on Hallmark. I agree the CSI franchise shows are really overexposed. NCIS and Bones are also starting to get that way too. I do wish Cold Case reruns would be aired more on TNT or another cable channel. That show gets shafted a lot.

Others show that are overexposed
Scrubs-Comedy Central, WGN, MTV and it airs twice nightly on my local Fox station
Family Guy-TBS, Cartoon Network and it airs twice nightly on my local CW station

I don't think Seinfeld is overly exposed. It only airs on TBS and no other cable channel. My local CW station airs two episodes at 11:00 and 11:30pm Mondays-Fridays. I know it does air on a lot of network affliates throughout the country.

I agree about Seinfeld.

browneyes, Scrubs is another good one. Totally forgot about it, definately over-exposed. It always airs 2 hours a day on WGN, then Comedy Central and MTV.

It airs mainly late nights on The N and Nick at Nite, but we can't forget Fresh Prince.

Another show starting to get overexposed in reruns is Degrassi:The Next Generation. It was ok when it reruns aired on The N. But it is being aired sometimes on MTV and there are many local network affliates airing episodes. I bet if Drake aka Aubrey Graham and Shanae Grimes hadn't broken through to the American entertainment scene. MTV wouldn't be airing reruns.

Extreme Makeover: Home Edition is getting plenty of airplay of CMT and also airs on TV Land.

DSfan · 08-03-2009, 07:35 PM

I agree with all of these and especially Degrassi taking over timeslots is getting on my nerves. But, of them all, I hate the insane amount of airplays that AFV gets especially when WGN and/or ABC Family decide to ruin a night of prime time with 3 hrs in a row!!! It's terrible what they're doing. I used to like the show with Bob Saget but it's overexposure has made me despise it a little.

What about The Fresh Prince? I think it's gotten somewhat better now, or is it just my imagination?

It wouldn't bother me about That '70s Show, but does the N ever pass season 4? In my 6 months or so watching this show in late night, I've never seen any of the newer episodes on The N.

Schmoopie · 08-04-2009, 01:47 AM

I would say Fresh Prince as well. It seems that every time I turn on the TV it's on again!
Would Law and Order count? God, if I'm not seeing episodes of Fresh Prince, Law and Order is right there trying to knock them out of the running for most times a televsion show is aired in one day!!
