Mid-season finale: Wednesday, March 23, 2011

Last season, three fabulous LA women of a certain age (played by Valerie Bertinelli, Jane Leeves and Wendie Malick) took an unplanned detour and discovered Cleveland – turning back the clock and taking back the spotlight! They decide to stay, and end up in a house whose feisty caretaker – played by Betty White – offers the Midwest perspective. But reinventing yourself doesn't happen overnight! In season two the women continue to rediscover themselves and see that their LA ways don't always play in the real world.

TV Land is beyond confusing. What is with getting rid of Married with Children, bringing it back and then getting rid of it again? Does it do well or doesn't it? The same goes for Boston Legal. Why air it if you're only going to get rid of it the following month? Also, airing six episodes of Bewitched on the weekends makes you think it is doing well, but yet it isn't airing at all on the weekdays?

I think the MWC issue is due to the contract which was intended for Spike TV, but they never air it. I think it does well for TV Land. For some reason, unlike other Viacom shows, it can't be shared between networks for very long. Is there no way the contract can be modified?

I don't understand this schedule either. The Nanny is so out of place in the morning. And if they are wanting younger viewers in primetime, why air Sanford and Son, their oldest skewing show, for 2 hours every night?

Monday, March 7 through Friday, March 11, 2011
7:00pm-9:00pm All in the Family (instead of Sanford & Son)

Good that will be 2 hours of AITF that week. But why is it just for that week?

[Pavan]

Read the story. It is more than 2 hours actually...

[clj2]

I would have moved Sanford and Son to 6PM-7PM. I never thought All in the Family was a hit in primetime for them. Strange it's just for a week.

8-9PM needs to be a 90s show. JMO.

[icecream]

This schedule would be an improvement.
8-9AM The Andy Griffith Show
9-10AM Leave it to Beaver
10-11AM I Dream of Jeannie
11AM-12PM Bewitched
12-1PM Gunsmoke
1-3PM Bonanza
3-4PM Good Times
4-5PM The Jeffersons
5-6PM All in the Family
6-7PM Sanford & Son
7-8PM The Andy Griffith Show
8-9PM M*A*S*H
9-11PM Everybody Loves Raymond
11PM-12AM Home Improvement
12-1AM Three's Company
1-2AM The Nanny
2-4AM Roseanne
4-5AM The Nanny
5-6AM M*A*S*H

There's alot of us young adults that love the older sitcoms. That's why it's a classic. It doesn't matter if it's 100 yrs. old if it's funny it's funny good comedy never die, it's there for generation to laugh. I'm in my 30's and I'm a big fan of the Honeymooners and Sanford and Son, I grew up looking at these classics with my parents and other classics as well.

i stoped watching tvland years agooncethey got rideo f homeinmproment in the wee hourso f the mosirng i stop i think it comeso n . i don't think homeimnprovment shold be on tvl and either. they used to show some good show everyone loves ramyond coms on 15 channels , rosesanne is sutpid i hate married with childern. theri all dirty shows.expect forthenany and ramond. i can't stand the nany or ramyond show.. i can't stand Andy Griffith Showit comso n too much. what happedn to ilove lucy the hooneymoones, happy days thewonder years batman with adam west. how about showing the incdabile hulk macyger the A=TEAM OR AMEN. how about add three stooges or even the tlwight zone? WHAT HAPPEDN TO THEGOOD SHOWS?

[clj2]

Why won't they move HiC out of Wednesdays at 10? The show is falling apart at that timeslot in the winter. Beats me why they insist on airing every original show then; this is not The Cougar or Harry Loves Lisa! I know it will do a little better in the summer, but I still think it needs to be moved to another night and another time (Thursdays at 9?). Should have been moved weeks ago.

I don't know if anything could help Retired at 35 though, that show is starting to get irritating.

[Pavan]

Don't think Wednesday at 10pm has anything to do with the ratings suffering. Much more original competition from Sept-May than the summer.

[Rezny@gmail.com]

On Saturday and Sunday mornings,there is NOTHING on TVLand.-And I DO mean NOTHING.(Yeah,I know there is "Roseanne" and "The Nanny",and I know,some people like these shows)Why, on those 2 days,do they air 10 episodes of "The Nanny"in the morning.back to back?Remember the days when they had only ONE episode of "Green Acres","The Addams Family","Mr.Ed","The Munsters","Bewitched","The Dick Van Dyke Show",etc,all with full-screen (sometimes)credits?That made Saturday and Sunday Morning TV worth watching.Now,it's nothing.

Yeah, the key will be if the viewers come back. This season so far has been pretty important to the storyline. As much as I wish it would, I don't see it getting the numbers this summer that it got last. I still think 10pm is a little late for an original sitcom, it's not like they don't have anywhere else to put it.

I remember when they also showed Carol Burnett and Flip Wilson on weekend mornings. I always looked forward to that, because they kind of "buried" a lot of the older shows that weren't ratings hits then.

HIC renewed for a 22-episode 3rd season, premiering next winter I guess: http://www.deadline.com/2011/02/tv-l...-third-season/

I hope we hear news on the other pilots that were shot recently. I'm hoping the one with Fran Drescher and the one with Sherri Shepherd get picked up.
