Remember TV Land's 48 hour marathons? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Does anyone know when the last time they had a whole weekend of one show and when? I think it may have been the That Girl marathon of December of '06?

Anyways, I wish they'd bring those back.

I loved the 48 hour marathons!! Yeah, I think That Girl was the last one they did. I also recall seeing The Brady Bunch and The Jeffersons, although those could have been several years ago now. Didn't they do them every time a new show joined the line-up?

I loved those 48 hour marathons. I don't believe there were any repeats either. Good times.

Those were excellent! And way back when does anyone remember when they would do Vertivision on Saturday nights and show the same show from 8pm-6am?

I never was a huge fan of them, they seemed like they went on forever sometimes, it's good if it's a show you like but bad if it's one you don't.

I liked the classic TV marathons they did last year on Saturdays and Sundays of the shows they didn't air very much.

The problems is they now show so few shows that are worth a 48 hour marathon.

You couldnt pay me to watch a 48 hour marathon of Cosby for instance.
