What is with Nick at Nite skipping this episode every time - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

RWCTV · 12-29-2001, 10:27 AM

You know, I noticed that every time Nick at Nite gets to around this one episode, they always skip it. This episode is from 1982 and it involved a female street gang that gets George in an alley and stabs him in the stomach. I have seen it on my local station and I keep waiting for it to resurface on Nick at Nite so that I can tape it, but they never show it. Instead, I have to wait for the whole re-run cycle to make another run before I can think to catch it again. That really bites. Has anyone else noticed this? Has anyone else had a similar experience with another episode?
This was a 2-parter by the way.

The episode seems like something that the morons at NAN might consider to be too controversial. I too have seen that episode in local syndication.

Nick at Nite has never aired this two-part episode but now that TV Land will begin airing it in January, perhaps they will show it along with:

George vs. Wall Street
Appointment in 8-B
last half of the 1984-1985 Season
