Tribune to Launch Antenna TV: Shows Incl. AITF-Good Times-S&S-3's Co.-Maude-Ropers

AITF-Good Times-S&S-3's Co.-Maude-Ropers -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://newsblogs.chicagotribune.com/...v-network.html Tribune Co., following the lead of WCIU-Ch. 26 parent Weigel Broadcasting, is launching Antenna TV to supply digital subchannel programming for local TV stations, beginning Jan. 3. The new service will deliver a round-the-clock slate of vintage TV series reruns and movies from Sony and DLT Entertainment to a secondary digital channel of WGN-Ch. 9 and those of other Tribune Co. stations. Tribune Co., which also owns the Chicago Tribune, also plans to make the service available to stations in other markets on a barter basis. On most Tribune Co. stations, Antenna TV is meant to complement This TV, the pioneering movie service that Weigel and MGM launched for digital subchannels two years ago. But here in Chicago, where Antenna will air on Channel 9.2, Weigel's WCIU carries This and WGN will have only that. This TV enjoys cable clearance in the Chicago area, as do Weigel's Me TV and Me Too programming. Not all digital subchannels do. They are available, however, for free over the air to viewers who use their digital tuners. Sean Compton, Tribune Broadcasting's president of programming, said on Monday that WGN is weighing several options for Channel 9.3 here, including a possible simulcast of WGN-AM 720. Antenna TV offerings will include "Three's Company," "Good Times," "All in the Family," "Sanford and Son," "Benny Hill," "Maude," "The Nanny,""Too Close for Comfort," "The Monkees," "Married with Children," "NewsRadio," "Dennis the Menace," "The Donna Reed Show" and Three Stooges shorts. “Tribune is committed to making full use of our bandwidth to offer viewers a broad spectrum of programming,” Compton said in the company's announcement. 08-31-2010, 02:47 AM MikeL Senior Member tv dvd legond Join Date: Jan 05, 2005 Location: usa pennsyvania Posts: 3,464 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- so guess only digitial suscribers would have it and everyone who has wgn channell 9 and so on looks like a great channell 08-31-2010, 02:52 AM Zoneboy Moderator Forum Veteran R.I.P GERRY RAFFERTY 1947-2011 Join Date: Jul 13, 2003 Posts: 15,030 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote: Originally Posted by MikeL so guess only digitial suscribers would have it and everyone who has wgn channell 9 and so on looks like a great channell If it's going to be a supplement to This TV then it will be available free over the air.

I hope it will expand to other markets with the barter deal, I'm sure Pavan will keep us updated with any further details. 08-31-2010, 03:03 AM MikeL Senior Member tv dvd legond Join Date: Jan 05, 2005 Location: usa pennsyvania Posts: 3,464 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- k cool i only got direct tv might need comcast then wish it be on satelliates to this put tv land to shame 08-31-2010, 10:03 AM Robert 13 Senior Member Member Join Date: May 10, 2006 Location: Boston, MA Posts: 1,364 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm a little confused. Is this starting only in Chicago on Jan. 3rd? I get ThisTV here in Boston. Will I be able to see this channel? I would loooove to be able to watch "Too Close For Comfort" beyond the 2 seasons that are on dvd.  08-31-2010, 10:07 AM Pavan Administrator Forum Veteran SO News/Reviews Director Join Date: Feb 17, 2000 Location: Linden, NJ (Where Hal Linden got his last name from!)

Posts: 23,837 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- That is a good question TeeVeeCloset. I am not sure. I still don't have THIS TV either and I am REALLLLLLLLY hoping I get Antenna TV on digital. If not, I will just get a TV without cable and watch over the air. Anyway, here is why this station will be good and much more details on Antenna TV: http://blog.sitcomsonline.com/2010/0...tv-coming.html 09-01-2010, 12:45 PM Robert 13 Senior Member Member Join Date: May 10, 2006 Location: Boston, MA Posts: 1,364 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just read the article. Thanks Pavan! I'm so hoping I can get Antenna TV. I don't have cable and I get thisTV. So, hopefully, that's a good sign. I really, really hope to see "Too Close For Comfort" beyond Season 2. Is there anywhere we can suggest shows to carry? I think a block of rare one-season wonders would be excellent. Something different. Would be fun for us to watch. Since they will be airing DLT shows, I hope they somehow find a way to air the short-lived series "A Touch Of Grace" with Shirley Booth of "Hazel" which is also owned by DLT. 09-01-2010, 02:02 PM Pavan Administrator Forum Veteran SO News/Reviews Director Join Date: Feb 17, 2000 Location: Linden, NJ (Where Hal Linden got his last name from!) Posts: 23,837 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I have been suggesting Sony shows to them (like Diff'rent Strokes, Facts of Life, One Day at a Time, 227, What's Happening/Now). It would be cool to see The Jeffersons spin-off Checking In in a stunt. Robert, do you have any Tribune-owned stations in your market? If so, then you will certainly get Antenna TV over the air at the very least, like you do with THIS TV. 09-01-2010, 02:43 PM MikeL Senior Member tv dvd legond Join Date: Jan 05, 2005 Location: usa pennsyvania Posts: 3,464 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- i get WGN Does that mean i get Antenna tv to just wondeirng 09-01-2010, 03:02 PM Robert 13 Senior Member Member Join Date: May 10, 2006 Location: Boston, MA Posts: 1,364 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote: Originally Posted by Pavan I have been suggesting Sony shows to them (like Diff'rent Strokes, Facts of Life, One Day at a Time, 227, What's Happening/Now).

Pavan, I would LOOOOVE to see both "Checking In" and "What's Happening Now!!" added to the line-up. If they picked up, "What's Happening Now!!" maybe they could group it with Shirley's short-lived series "One in a Million". Have been absolutely dying to see that for ages. I'm not sure if there are any Tribune-owned stations here. I get THIS tv over the air with my digital antenna. So I am hoping the same will happen for the new channel. Can't wait to read more news as it becomes available. Pavan, do you think you could pass on my suggestions for Shirley Hemphill's series along with Shirley Booth's series. This may be my only chance to see either of them.

Best news of the day as WGN America just ended Outta Sight Retro Night and TV Land, well..... However, as mentioned above, Pavan and I are in the WPIX market and our cable system doesn't even carry This TV yet. Strangely, they had both Spanish subchannels, but when one went off, they just took the channel off, but didn't add This TV. For a few days, the program guide listed This TV, but that too disappeared. Well, we've got until the January launch to bang the drum for Antenna TV! 09-01-2010, 06:34 PM Dragonflies Moderator Forum Veteran Member Join Date: Apr 26, 2003 Location: Watching The Big Bang Theory Posts: 20,674 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I get thisTV.

As I said, only Tribune markets (please see the 19 listed above) have been cleared so far. But more will come outside of these markets. Stay tuned. THIS tv has been cleared in more than just the Tribune markets. So the same could happen to Antenna TV.

So if you're in these 19 markets, you need to call and tell your local cable company to add it to your cable line-up. It is not a guarantee the cable company will add it, so you need to make them aware of it and request Antenna TV. It will for sure be available over the air in these 19 markets, if you don't have cable. Pavan View Public Profile Send a private message to Pavan Send email to Pavan Visit Pavan's homepage!

They get to have Antenna TV and ME-TV and the Stanley Cup for good measure! What did they ever do to deserve it? (Just kidding, guys!) I suppose there's no chance they'll ever have Antenna TV in Canada---and I really hope I'm wrong on this one---so just to be safe I e-mailed their boss to see if they can put a channel in Buffalo just so it can reach over the border. They wrote me back to tell me that they will consider it. So stay tuned. It could happen.

I will connect the indoor antenna to the back of the OTA connection on my Dish receiver and record on my HDD and then transfer to a DVR recorder or ext HDD to keep.

RTV started off well but when they lost the Paramount shows it just went downhill, variety wise. Very nice overall!

All-Star Theatre is this: http://www.tv.com/ford-theatre-all-s...9/summary.html Showcase 39 is similar. "Showcase 39/Ford Showcase 39/Ford Television Theatre" (61 programs, 1956 -1957) Good question about Archie Bunker's Place.

It will be on WREG which is CBS. The main channel is 3-1, and News Channel 3 Anytime is 3-2, so I am assuming this will make a new 3-3. I am glad to see Three's Company as well as the Norman Lear shows. However, I am a little disappointed that The Jeffersons is not part of the line up. You would think that with All In the Family, Maude, Good Times, and Sanford and Son airing, they would also air The Jeffersons. I guess not. But still, a good channel. thebigcookie View Public Profile Send a private message to thebigcookie Send email to thebigcookie Find More Posts by thebigcookie 10-22-2010, 10:41 AM Robert 13 Senior Member Member Join Date: May 10, 2006 Location: Boston, MA Posts: 1,360 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote: Originally Posted by Dragonflies I so want this channel I know.

But first you have to be the market Antenna TV is available in. IF you are, you'll certainly get it over the air...but on a cable system, it is a 50-50 chance they add it. Just make sure you request to them they add it. Pavan View Public Profile Send a private message to Pavan Send email to Pavan Visit Pavan's homepage!

Hell, it took us years to finally get RTV which is the only channel I watch with any regularity. I only keep cable for sports, TCM, and the History-Discovery block. I love the looks of Antenna TV though. Finally somebody showing the real classics (read Black & White) on a daily basis as well as some great lost sitcoms like "Too Close For Comfort" and "The Ropers". __________________ Bring back my B&W TV Shows !! |

Yeah,over advertising is a big problem on tv these days.I don't think they'll run them completely uncut,but hopefully they will not over-do the commercials like tv land and others do. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Last edited by LUNCH : 11-02-2010 at 04:52 PM.

Can anyone steer me to some info online about buying an indoor antenna and what else may be needed or any advice that can be shared? My concern is that I invest in all of this equipment and the picture may be poor. I live about 50 miles or so from Philadelphia, which is one of the cities listed for AT. I read that if you do not have a digital tv, you also need a digital converter box. It may be better just to buy a newer digital TV. Thanks for any help!!! This new network sounds great- Much better than TV Land! rcbrad View Public Profile Send a private message to rcbrad Find More Posts by rcbrad 11-02-2010, 02:22 PM #78 Pavan Administrator Forum Veteran SO News/Reviews Director Join Date: Feb 17, 2000 Location: Linden, NJ (Where Hal Linden got his last name from!)

I did an experiment: I unhooked the cable from my digital TV and hooked up the old rabbit ears antenna, and lo and behold, I got KTLA's sub-channel, This TV. I don't even get that through my cable connection. Of course, it's too soon to tell. I don't know if Antenna TV will replace This TV, or if KTLA will add another sub-channel. I will also have to replace my DVD recorder because it is 10 years old and doesn't have a digital tuner.

I e-mailed them today and asked a few general questions and I got a quick reply. Here's part of that reply: We are working on adding affiliates across the country. We may have a bigger list of affiliates to announce before launch. As for Canada, that's a great idea. So stay tuned and keep your fingers crossed. It looks like a lot of you---including myself---should have a very Happy New Year, indeed, with plenty to celebrate.

KTLA will be adding Antenna TV to our lineup sometime around January 1st. We do not have all the details in place yet, but it will not replace THIS TV, but be a third channel for KTLA. You can visit their website to see what is coming at www.antennatv.tv Sincerely, KTLA 5 Programming So this is good news!! We'll still get This TV and Antenna TV.

However, if you are wondering if your market will carry it on cable, you have to call/email your cable company for that. We will have continued scheduling updates and more, so stay with us.

The uniform schedule will be good because maybe they can do more stunts, marathons, etc. I guess this pretty much kills that .2 Network, because Antenna will be drawing from Sony, who they were hooked up with several years ago. It's been dead though. clj2 View Public Profile Send a private message to clj2 Find More Posts by clj2 11-23-2010, 01:16 AM #88 Pavan Administrator Forum Veteran SO News/Reviews Director Join Date: Feb 17, 2000 Location: Linden, NJ (Where Hal Linden got his last name from!)

I asked them on their FB page if there would be a chance to see Mad About You or NewsRadio on the schedule some time as both are Sony. They'd fit well later at night. The Nanny and Mad About You aired in some sort of syndication package on broadcast several years ago. I know they are more recent, but it would be nice to see them again (I don't get Reelz). clj2 View Public Profile Send a private message to clj2 Find More Posts by clj2 11-23-2010, 02:23 AM #90 Pavan Administrator Forum Veteran SO News/Reviews Director Join Date: Feb 17, 2000 Location: Linden, NJ (Where Hal Linden got his last name from!)

Personally I hope we get at least a year before we see anything additionally past 1980! Usually a start up only is good with the golden age of television for a year or so before it is ruined! Married With Children being on the schedule is awful...How many Channels does this show have to be on? I mean here we have a start-up that actually is running "Circus Boy" which I have never even seen in my 47 years on local television at least in the NY area. __________________ Living near "Ozzie Nelson Drive".....

Well, Me-TV and Me-Too were only in Chicago when Antenna TV was announced. Only this week Me-TV announced they are going national.

I would think Antenna TV is trying to start off with a strong line-up of fairly familiar shows (Three's Company, Married With Children, The Nanny, Sanford and Son will definitely score IMO) instead of trying more obscure stuff. Maude, Burns and Allen, etc. have not been seen in ages, though. The Sony library is huge, so there is probably a lot of stuff in there to dig in to, so hopefully when they do stunts they will bring some rare shows out. The one year wonders might not be included though, who knows...like I said, I guess this is like the Sony package ION had. Let's hope they didn't go to the ION school of editing Gunsmoke, assuming it'll be on then, will be celebrating its 15th year on TV Land next April! clj2 View Public Profile Send a private message to clj2 Find More Posts by clj2 11-26-2010, 12:52 AM Pavan Administrator Forum Veteran SO News/Reviews Director Join Date: Feb 17, 2000 Location: Linden, NJ (Where Hal Linden got his last name from!)

And I don't think they have a library deal with Sony. I think they just bought some shows from them. Some others they have bought but not scheduled yet are The Donna Reed Show and NewsRadio.

Just a guess but tv land must now have less than 1 tenth the viewers they had back when aired only classic shows and kept the ads to a minimum.

The Donna Reed Show won't be a part of Antenna TV. A fellow member of my Donna Reed Facebook campaign e-mailed them and due to problems with the distributor, they won't be showing it. As it is, Sony only controls seasons 6-8 (and seasons 6-7 were out of the syndication package for many years, so perhaps the masters really need remastering). Mary Owen and her siblings (the heirs to Donna Reed and Tony Owen's estates) control seasons 1-5 and she has told me that Antenna TV has NOT contacted them concerning rerunning those seasons.

I wonder what the chances are of seeing Seasons 6-8 on dvd if Sony controls them. Hmmmm. As far as shows go, it looks like they have a nice starter selection. Hope it expands as time goes on. Would be nice for them to bring back a block of episodes (ala TV Land's Box Set) where they play rare shows like "Gloria", "It's A Living" or other shows. I know I would love to see some of the rare one-season wonders. __________________ Com'č straordinaria la vita, che un giorno ti senti come in un sogno e poi ti ritrovi all'inferno - Dolcenera Robert 13 View Public Profile Send a private message to Robert 13 Find More Posts by Robert 13 11-30-2010, 03:54 PM Pavan Administrator Forum Veteran SO News/Reviews Director Join Date: Feb 17, 2000 Location: Linden, NJ (Where Hal Linden got his last name from!)

Healthycityboy First Time Poster Member Join Date: Dec 16, 2010 Posts: 1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I was looking on the on-air programming guide for Channel 5-2 in Los Angeles, and it says "Antenna TV: Coming Soon!" starting Monday, Dec. 20 at 3:00 am PST. This continues through the next two weeks leading up to the premiere. Could we be getting an early preview?

I found it to be very informative. I especially like this part: Antenna TV's Sean Compton: We air the shows the way that the distributors supply us. We will do no editing on our end. We also will not be squeezing the end credits nor will we have an Antenna TV bug/logo on the screen during programming. Stations locally may decide to put theirs up, but nationally we will not display one. Ronny G View Public Profile Send a private message to Ronny G Send email to Ronny G Visit Ronny G's homepage!

I hope they don't wait forever to show NewsRadio! Wonder if they have Mad About You and One Day at a Time. I do like how their schedule flows from 50s/60s-70s-80s/90s. Still prefer MeTV a little more (I don't care for the pre-70s shows ATV has), but I am excited about Antenna as well! __________________ -Chris clj2 View Public Profile Send a private message to clj2 Find More Posts by clj2 12-16-2010, 05:58 PM Tannerman Occasional Poster Member Join Date: Nov 23, 2010 Location: Chicago, IL Posts: 4 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As someone who lives in Chicago and has had the joys of MeTV/MeToo for many years, I have a hard time taking Antenna TV seriously... especially since Tribune is behind it -- not exactly an organization that knows what they are doing these days.

I hope they don't wait forever to show NewsRadio! Wonder if they have Mad About You and One Day at a Time. They probably do have more since they will be rotating shows in and out the next few years. I would bet The Jeffersons and hopefully stuff like Silver Spoons and One Day at a Time would be among those. NewsRadio was bought, but I wouldn't mind if it doesn't air. That and The Nanny, to me, are not necessary but they are giving us a nice mix from 50s-90s. I agree with Sean that Married...with Children will be good for late primetime/early late night.

Not really too excited about their programming, other than Farmer's Daughter and Here Come the Brides. It'd be nice if they got away from the mostly common crap and picked up some of the great short-run Sony shows, like Occasional Wife, Love on a Rooftop. Second Hundred Years, Our Man Higgins, Good Life, Nancy, Outcasts, Wackiest Ship in the Army, Young Rebels and things like that. Who needs shows like Sanford and Son, Good Times, etc. that are already all out on DVD? I can see them any time I want. We need stuff like Police Story and shows like that that aren't on DVD. bencasey View Public Profile Send a private message to bencasey Send email to bencasey Find More Posts by bencasey 12-17-2010, 03:15 PM Pavan Administrator Forum Veteran SO News/Reviews Director Join Date: Feb 17, 2000 Location: Linden, NJ (Where Hal Linden got his last name from!) Posts: 23,802 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It's all about cost. Antenna TV is technically a broadcast station, so it would be really costly to air series that haven't been seen in years or bombed in syndication, because they cost more oddly. Cable would be cheaper for those shows, but broadcast costs a whole lot for some reason. Me-TV has the same problem, or they would air stuff that hasn't been seen locally in years like Dear John (from Paramount) or WKRP (20th TV).

Posts: 23,802 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Good point about Sundays, but those are rarely seen/classic westerns. So I don't think The Rookies or Police Woman would fit that line-up. Remember this is just their launch schedule, we could very well see those Screen Gem rarities/short-lived series in the future. This line-up they put together is a good one to sell their network to affiliates. Married with Children has more selling power than Temperatures Rising, lol. I think you know that. The network has a good mix of 50s-90s programming. I would not be surprised to see a short-lived sitcom stunt or even block from Antenna TV sometime in the future. I see nothing but good things to come, as Sean Compton is really a big classic TV fan. |

From what I'm hearing, they aren't cutting so if they get shows complete at 25:30 for a half hour and 51 minutes for an hour, that's how it'll run. No guarantee it will be that way down the road. I don't really care if they put The Rookies on and cut it to 44 minutes like TV Land did. bencasey View Public Profile Send a private message to bencasey Send email to bencasey Find More Posts by bencasey 12-21-2010, 11:07 AM Pavan Administrator Forum Veteran SO News/Reviews Director Join Date: Feb 17, 2000 Location: Linden, NJ (Where Hal Linden got his last name from!)

Also, the network is too heavy on sitcoms and weak on dramas. At least ME-TV seems to have a good balance between both. Unfortunately, this guy running the network is a kid and he probably has no idea what Occasional Wife or Love On A Rooftop even is. It would even be nice if they put Donna Reed on so we could record the last 3 seasons which will likely never come out on DVD. bencasey View Public Profile Send a private message to bencasey Send email to bencasey Find More Posts by bencasey 12-21-2010, 11:48 AM Pavan Administrator Forum Veteran SO News/Reviews Director Join Date: Feb 17, 2000 Location: Linden, NJ (Where Hal Linden got his last name from!)

Dennis the Menace, for example, was 22 minutes. Some shows had the old Colex ending. In all fairness, it might be KTLA doing the editing or maybe Sony gave them old syndicated prints from the 1980s that haven't been remastered. I really hesitate posting this info because it might be KTLA doing the editing because Antenna TV hasn't started yet so maybe KTLA got different prints (fingers crossed). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Last edited by Ronny G : 12-21-2010 at 08:38 PM.

Yes, I saw that on Saturday, too (on ivi TV). Father Knows Best was the same way. I think it was KTLA doing the quick cut to commercials rather than the end of the act. I think Antenna TV will cut to commercial during the end of the acts. Hopefully. I think some shows will be unedited, while some won't, but remember Antenna TV are not editing themselves. They will air what they are given. It'll be fun to see which shows are edited and which are unedited.

I think their library would mesh well with Sony's, like 20th's does with CBS over at MeTV. They have some really great shows that I think would fit Antenna TV; Night Court, Hogan Family, Alice, Mama's Family, Gilligan's Island, Perfect Strangers, Head of the Class, then stuff like Just the Ten of Us. It's depending on if they want to go past the 70s very much, though (they are airing MWC, Nanny, and have NewsRadio, so I am guessing so). ION aired product from Sony and Warner from '06-'08. __________________ -Chris clj2 View Public Profile Send a private message to clj2 Find More Posts by clj2 12-22-2010, 01:49 AM TKMetal Frequent Poster Member Join Date: May 12, 2006 Location: Iowa Posts: 93 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Also the classic Looney Tunes shorts would be great and fit in with Totally Tooned In.

Posts: 23,724 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Antenna TV has made some schedule changes to its launch line-up for early weekday afternoons and Sunday mornings. Why? Sony could not get all of the tapes of the rare series to Antenna TV in time for launch. Those rare Sony shows are still on film and they don't have most of the episodes ready yet. As soon as they are ready, they will be placed on the schedule. Shows affected are: Burns & Allen, The Farmer's Daughter, Showcase '39, All-Star Theatre, Circus Boy, The Adventures of Rin Tin Tin, The Adventures of Wild Bill Hickok and Iron Horse. Thus, since most of the episodes for these are not ready, they will not be on the launch schedule but as I said, they will be placed on the line-up as soon they get a good amount of episodes on tape. We will do a blog story on this on Monday. Changes as a result: Weekdays 1:00pm Father Knows Best (was Burns & Allen) 1:30pm Father Knows Best (was Burns & Allen) 2:00pm Dennis the Menace (was Hazel) 2:30pm Dennis the Menace (was The Farmer's Daughter) 3:00pm Hazel (was Father Knows Best) 3:30pm Hazel (was Dennis the Menace) Sundays 7:00am The Three Stooges (was Showcase 39) 7:30am The Three Stooges (was Showcase 39) 8:00am The Three Stooges (was All-Star Theatre) 8:30am The Three Stooges (was All-Star Theatre) 9:00am The Three Stooges (was Circus Boy) 9:30am The Three Stooges (was Circus Boy) 10:00am Father Knows Best (was The Adventures of Rin Tin Tin) 10:30am Father Knows Best (was The Adventures of Rin Tin Tin) 11:00am Dennis the Menace (was The Adventures of Wild Bill Hickok) 11:30am Dennis the Menace (was The Adventures of Wild Bill Hickok) 12:00pm Hazel (was Iron Horse) 12:30pm Hazel (was Iron Horse) __________________ SitcomsOnline.com News Blog -- The best news out there!

I actually like the Sunday schedule more than the one they had previously planned. I think since FKB is practically complete on DVD, they were ready anyway. And a lot of these shows still had prints from the '80s Colex distribution era available. I can see why a show like Circus Boy wouldn't have been as ready.

Not sure why they are taking forever, but I think Antenna TV thought those shows would be ready by now. They don't have enough episodes to start them, so they will just premiere them at a later date when everything is available. There is a good chance that those shows will be completely unedited whenever they premiere. clj2, as Jude said, Hazel and Father Knows Best have aired in syndication in the digital era (TV Land) and are already ready, as is Dennis the Menace. All three are also in the process of DVD or near completion. Ronny G, you'll see Farmer's Daughter at some point. They are not going to give up on those shows since Sony is converting them.

I did see the 2 episodes that aired on KTLA during the preview- they looked like really good copies and were from seasons 7 and 8. What I don't understand is if MEtv has been airing the show- why are the copies not available for Antenna TV? brtcmfn View Public Profile Send a private message to brtcmfn Find More Posts by brtcmfn 12-27-2010, 05:11 PM Pavan Administrator Forum Veteran SO News/Reviews Director Join Date: Feb 17, 2000 Location: Linden, NJ (Where Hal Linden got his last name from!)

Posts: 23,724 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- catsrule, I don't see Fort Wayne listed as an affiliate yet for Antenna TV (unless your Indy): http://www.antennatv.tv/affiliates/ - email your stations and request that they add it on a digital substation. You need to make sure you have an affiliate first before worrying about cable. If you are in the Indy market, then I suggest you call Comcast and ask. Antenna TV's website will soon have a zip code finder maybe later this week with FULL cable updates. MrBand, that is my Comcast as well! I am still trying to find out what channel it will be on, but I am hearing channel 252 by mid-January. We'll see soon, I guess. vesto94, you'll have to watch and see. Antenna TV is not editing anything themselves, as they stated in the interview they did with us. But if something is edited, that is how Sony gave it to them. Those rare series that Sony is finding episodes from the vault are probably for sure unedited, whenever they end up premiering. I can totally see The Ropers and Three's a Crowd unedited from DLT. Cheryl Harrell, where are you located? I don't think DirecTV is adding it, as of now. Only over-the-air and cable providers.

The only Time Warner cable provider I see listed on the Antenna TV website is Time Warner Milwaukee. I'm in a Co-op building and do not have an antenna available to pick up WPIX 11.4 New York. My only option is Time Warner Cable NYC. Thanks. |

They will be showing a repeat of the KTLA 6 o'clock news. I suspect its because the show is airing on another station, but I don't know which one?

Why didn't the Tribune Co. check and make sure that some of the shows they were acquiring the rights to from Sony for Antenna TV could actually be run on modern equipment. This should have been thoroughly checked before the annnouncement of the first launch schedule. To me, this presents a creditibilty problem for them to say some of these shows will be on and then find out later after acquiring the rights to them that, Ooops!, some of them are still on film and then not have the right equipment to show them, such as equipment to run actual film which a television station or network would probably rarely have or not have at all today.

Posts: 23,764 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- They were aware of it. They just didn't think it would take this long. They have some of the episodes ready but if they had let them remain on the schedule as is, they would have to go back to episode one for all shows very quickly and that would be pretty stupid since they would waste plays (each show has certain amount of times an episode could air per contract) for these early episodes pretty quickly. So it was better for them to delay these until everything was available. They will air later this year most likely since they have gone through all this trouble to convert to digital. Some of these shows haven't aired in years and Burns & Allen was in terrible shape, so it needs remastering.

My friend in Chicago has had many of these shows on ME-TV for several years now and he tells me that all of the older shows are cut. I am hoping that for this new national network they would have gone back and remastered complete versions of the shows. We'll know in a few days. If not, and all of these things are coming in at 22 and 44 minutes, then this network will be as worthless as the rest of them. I'm not interested in cut episodes no matter how rare a show is. So right now, other than Here Come the Brides 2nd season and if by some miracle Too Close for Comfort is uncut, there is nothing on the launch schedule I care about. bencasey View Public Profile Send a private message to bencasey Send email to bencasey Find More Posts by bencasey 12-30-2010, 10:14 AM TeeVeeCloset Senior Member Member Join Date: Aug 25, 2003 Posts: 1,294 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote: Originally Posted by Pavan Antenna TV has made some schedule changes to its launch line-up for early weekday afternoons and Sunday mornings.

Look we learned of this station as this thread began on 8/31/10, for them to say that Sony, one of the largest media companies in the country couldn't get the older series ready in time is either what we have known about Sony for a long time (their constant screwing up dvd releases) or yes Antenna TV (run by bankrupt Tribune) is not being run professionally. I had also mentioned awhile back that usually the first year of a station is its best before they ruin it or change directions (TV Land ran one hour versions of Sonny & Cher, had no commercials, ION actually ran Alice, Wonder Years, etc) I am predicting we will NEVER see these shows as promised, for Pav to say "later in the year" was like a gunshot to the chest...dramatic I know...lol....seriously "later in the year"....it's New Years Eve 2010! I think this is more about money spent on series for a station that many people won't even see at launch, so they are holding them back until cable companies and alike carry the station. I guess I should have known the old saying "If it sounds too good to be true, It usually is".....to promise us "Circus Boy", & "The Farmer's Daughter" was too good to be true. By the middle of the year, they probably will be running "Married With Children" 5 times a day! I guess I did pick the right time to stop posting....I was half way through setting up an isolated TV that I could record as well, and saw "This TV" yesterday for the first time here in the metro area, now I might as well disconnect it. Really this is a business disgrace on Tribune & Sony's part! __________________ Living near "Ozzie Nelson Drive".....

Perfect for my last post for awhile, I will remain a member though and post when neccessary, as of 6PM on 12/31/10...I am seeing Antenna TV over the air in the NY Metro area on ch. 11.4 as they are running clips of the shows they will be running as a teaser....I have also successfully hooked it up to a DVD recorder. I will return someday or when "Circus Boy" or "The Farmer's Daughter" is actually airing...lol....my best to you and HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE!

Do you have a way to watch TV without cable? If so, Antenna TV will be on 17.2 tonight at 12am. Email/call your Comcast and ask them when will they be adding Antenna TV on channel 252. It won't be tonight. Pavan View Public Profile Send a private message to Pavan Send email to Pavan Visit Pavan's homepage!

It is a digital over the air network. But it will be on many cable systems, just not tonight. I think it will be added in Philly's Comcast in a few days/weeks. Not sure exactly when. But NY is 1/25, but it can be seen tonight also on 11.4. The network launches tonight over-the-air on 17.2 in Philly.
