You know Sol, an online petition is easy to do. (Hint Hint)

I'm going to go on Antenna TV facebook page and ask if they have plans of picking up Alice

TeeVeeCloset · 05-26-2011, 08:27 AM

I appreciate you liking the show, as I do...but don't bother with Antenna TV, Alice is a Warner Bros. property and they only have one program license deal with Sony. As for any petitions, Alice is too old for the networks you mentioned, Alice had a national shot only a few years back when ION launched, they played every episode, very edited to 22 minute versions, but it was played. For now "Alice" will remain waiting in the diner frozen in time like a TV dinner waiting for a TV return but right now, it will not happen. Waner doesn't even have interest in a season 1 DVD release, even though it is available to purchase as a amazon download.

I agree. This show seriously needs to be dug from the vaults and given a new lease on life in reruns or in dvds. I haven't seen it in years and would pick-up Season 1 in a heartbeat if it was available. The itunes thing just isn't a good option for me. I want to watch it on my tv set in dvd quality.

I remember rushing home to see it on ION every night in April of 2007

I agree. I miss the show and I would love to have it on DVD since it's not on TV anymore.

Alice is on the air from on year in Hallmark italy channel
we are very lucky

I would like to see TV stations to be able to rerun shows themselves - and for gosh sake, without having to take the way some "network" reruns it. The way it was, before Big Cable "set the standard"

for how shows are "supposed" to be rerun - cutups, speedups, and PC censorship.
If it was that way again, I wouldn't mind - would absolutely love - to see these shows such as "Alice" rerun again.
I think the problem is that there are too many syndicated shows (talk shows, "judge" shows, tabloid "news" shows, etc.) hogging up the time TV stations used to take to rerun shows. If this glut wasn't there, these shows may have a chance again. Who knows?

I know I am responding to an old post, but I watched Alice on ION at that time too. I was glad to see it on TV than.

I too wish that Antenna or METV would pick it up!!

I wasn't glad to see it on ION after about a week because of the reasons below

1. Horrible Quality

2. ION going to a commercial while someone was still talking

Did you ever get a response?

It's baffling why Alice is never on TV.

lol It just seems so strange that all these 70's classics air but Alice, ODAAT and Chico and the Man never air. I would do a dance if they did.

I still believe Flo should have not been released before Alice was completed
