Favorite Programming Lineups? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Retro4Life · 03-26-2010, 08:49 PM

Does anyone want to share some of their favorite lineups (or as they seem to be known as today, "blocks")?

One I remember very fondly was the ABC Friday Night lineup of Brady Bunch, Partridge Family, Odd Couple and Love American Style. (I think "Me and the Chimp" was in there too, but I can't remember what else).

I also remember ABC Thursday's comedy lineup of Mork and Mindy, What's Happening, Barney Miller, Soap, followed by the drama, Family.

And of course, who could forget CBS Saturday's lineup of All in the Family, Bob Newhart, Mary Tyler Moore and The Carol Burnett Show?

two that I remember fondly were the great one on CBS in the 70s: "ALL IN THE FAMILY", "THE JEFFERSONS", "THE MARY TYLER MOORE SHOW", "THE BOB NEWHART SHOW" and "THE CAROL BURNETT SHOW".
Then there was ABCs in the early 70s on Friday night: "THE BRADY BUNCH", "THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY", "THAT GIRL", "THE ODD COUPLE", and "LOVE AMERICAN STYLE".

One that I remember very well is that of CBS Fridays in the '80s: "Dukes of Hazzard," "Dallas," and "Falcon Crest."

Room 222, was the other show in that well known Friday night line-up.

The Jeffersons was part of that Saturday night line-up for a short time.

ER didn't premiere until 1994 - hence, I believe Hill Street Blues aired at 10pm, not ER.

I also loved the ABC Tuesday night lineup. I watched Soap in reruns but don't remember the original run. Of Course, I was very young and maybe my parents did not allow me to watch.

I liked the ABC Tuesday night lineup but I remember:

Happy Days
Laverne and Shirley
Threes Company
Too Close For Comfort

Also, liked Fox Sunday night:

The Simpsons
Married With Children
In Living Color

I have watched Fox Sunday nights since 1990. Also liked King Of The Hill, Parker Lewis Can't Lose, Family Guy and The Cleveland Show.

NBC Saturday Night in the 80s Rocked:

227
Amen
The Golden Girls
Empty Nest

Thats right! Thanks for the correction. NBC has had a strong Thursday night line up, for years, and ER was on for so long, I forgot when it started!

one of my faves was nbc wednesday nights in the 1979/1980 season with real people different strokes hello larry and the best of saturday night live i looked forward to that lineup every week

McGillicuddy · 04-25-2010, 07:34 PM

Another favorite line-up for me

CBS Monday Nights late 60's; early 70's

8:30 Here's Lucy (previously The Lucy Show)
9:00Mayberry RFD (previously The Andy Griffith Show)
9:30 The Doris Day Show (before that Family Affair)

As a matter of fact The Carol Burnett Show was on at 10:00 back then, but I had to go to bed. I never got to know TCBS until it moved to the Saturday line-up.

...and Gunsmoke was on at 7:30, but I didn't care about it.

bencasey · 05-10-2010, 04:03 PM

Late 60s Tuesday ABC lineup was awesome:

7:30 Mod Squad
8:30 Movie of the Week
10:00 Marcus Welby MD
