TV Land is OVEREXPOSING Hot in Cleveland

Shocking, so unlike TV Land to do. I'm fine with stuff leading up to the season premiere but if they were planning that, they shouldn't have had it on Thanksgiving. Plus isn't it a little early to be having a sort-of "best of" marathon?

It's popular, but it's not that popular. They're treating it like its an iconic show that ran for a decade

[LUNCH]

TVLand has turned into a joke.Hopefully channels like ME-TV and Antenna TV will put them out of business along with all the other useless Viacom channels.

A joke which at one time ,a long time ago,WAS funny,but ISN'T anymore.TVLand should be changed to "Modern TVLand".It sure isn't the way it USED to be.

[Pavan]

Not that I agree with their direction, but why do they have to rename their channel to "Modern TV Land?" The name TV Land doesn't have anything "classic" in it. We still are getting classic TV for most of the schedule (minus primetime).

[retrofan05]

Replacing Andy Griffith with Married with Children on the weekends was just a bizarre move, especially since it will now be following Bewitched. I would have rather seen them replace an hour of Sanford & Son with Married with Children. Maybe at 8? It seems like a better fit.

[clj2]

I think Married With Children would be nice in primetime between Sanford and Son and Everybody Loves Raymond. ELR is extremely over-exposed (4 episodes most weeknights and tons on the weekends with no repeats!). I think they are trying to scale Andy Griffith back, like they have done with Gunsmoke- it used to be one of their highest rated shows and aired a lot, but now it only airs like 4x a week at 12PM.

I agree, they are crazy over Hot in Cleveland. It was alright. I do appreciate them going for scripted programming instead of reality shows, though....that seems to be what they are going for now. My prediction is that Hot in Cleveland does well, but not as great as in the summer, and Retired at 35 bombs.

I probably won't be watching them, as hopefully I'll soon have MeTV and Antenna TV for older shows.

[jasonbigley]

Ten episodes of Married With Children In A Row? You gotta be kidding me.
Twelve episodes of The Nanny On Sundays? Ridiculous!
Its not that TVLand is airing more modern shows, but a lot of what they are airing is being very redundant!
Off subject, but I have noticed radio stations doing the same thing lately. They have a radio station where I work that they play all the time and I am so tired of hearing the same songs over and over again.

TV LAND’S “HOT IN CLEVELAND” HONORED WITH TWO

Screen Actors Guild AWARDS® NOMINATIONS

Network’s First Original Sitcom Scores Nominations For

Outstanding Performance By An Ensemble In A Comedy Series And

Outstanding Performance By A Female Actor in a Comedy Series – Betty White


New York, NY, December 16, 2010 -- TV Land’s very first original sitcom “Hot in Cleveland,” received two nominations for the upcoming 17th annual Screen Actors Guild Awards®, it was announced today from the Pacific Design Center in Los Angeles. “Hot in Cleveland” is the network’s critically-acclaimed hit and cable’s #1 sitcom starring beloved actresses Valerie Bertinelli (“One Day at a Time”), Jane Leeves (“Frasier”), Wendie Malick (“Just Shoot Me”) and recent Emmy® Award-winner, Betty White (“The Golden Girls”).

The sitcom is nominated this year in two categories including: Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series and Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Comedy Series – Betty White.

“’Hot in Cleveland’ is lightning in a bottle with these four fabulous women,” says Larry W. Jones, president, TV Land. “They are truly making modern classic TV history. Everyone here at TV Land is so proud.”

“Hot in Cleveland” revolves around three fabulous best friends from LA – novelist Melanie Moretti (Valerie Bertinelli), eye-brow archer to the stars Joy Scroggs (Jane Leeves) and former soap star Victoria Chase (Wendie Malick) – who find their lives changed forever when their plane, headed for Paris, makes an unexpected landing. When the friends discover that life is better for them and that they are hot in Cleveland, they decide to stay. Starting over together, they rent a house that happens to come with a very opinionated caretaker (Betty White).

Filmed in front of a live studio audience, “Hot in Cleveland” is executive produced by Emmy® Award-winner Sean Hayes and Todd Milliner of Hazy Mills Productions and is helmed by Emmy® Award-winning Suzanne Martin (“Frasier,” “Ellen”) serving as executive producer, show runner and writer.

You might be right,but T.V.LAND used to be about classic until they just have become useless!I'm sure evreyone loves theses so-called classics like EVERYONE LOVES RAYMOND(I for one never have);HOME IMPROVEMENT(How does TIM ALLEN keep geting work?!);MARRIED WITH CHILDREN(At least it was on in the 80s),and I can go on and on,but you get the point!As I once said,things aren't classics just because 5 people liked them,or some rigged up ratings system says that I like this show.Why doesn't T.V.LAND just do us all a favor,stop the pretense of showing the one or two classics they have left,and just show all of their new bit,because one person won't be around to see the train crash waiting to happen,and if others was smart,they would soon follow!

TVLand and Viacom who wrote the article can spin and twist all the facts they want.The fact is they have lost so many viewers,and are not getting many new ones.Very heavily edited versions of shows like Bewitched and The Andy Griffith show are still getting far better ratings than any of the more modern tv shows in their line-up, the only exception being Hot In Cleveland.

[Pavan]

LUNCH, it is a fact that Everybody Loves Raymond is doing well. That is modern. TV Land had their best year in primetime since 2007, so obviously something is working for them. They are going in a different direction, which I am sure many don't agree with, but it is working for them (at least in primetime).

I don't mind the show, but how can it keep doing well? For 9 months, at least 2 hours a night, six days a week? I just don't understand how nobody is getting sick of it.

They treat ELR like it's their only non-original show. They need more....why not try to get MWC regularly? That '70s Show from TeenNick? Share Frasier with Lifetime or Seinfeld with TBS, those may fit? If they want modern, fine with me, but they need more variety at night.

I'm certainly no expert,but notice how it says they had their best year in primetime since '2007'.They are not mentioning how well their prime time line-up did before 2007 when they showed the older shows. It seems to me the older shows did alot better for them in primetime,but they deliberately do not include that in any of their press releases.--TVLand,when they had an all or mostly classic line-up,less commercials,no original programs etc. used to be one of the most successful cable tv stations period,even beating ESPN.That's not the case anymore.IMO they just want to air programs that cost them next to nothing as filler in between commercials.
