Nick at Nite says they Goofed! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Robert Tilton · 08-06-2001, 12:22 AM

Has anybody else seen this clip from Nick at Nite? I saw it during the Andy Marathon just now!

A voiceover comes on while the clip shows footage from Gilligans & says:

"We Goofed! We forgot to show Gilligans in the Un Real a Thon. Watch on Monday blah blah blah".

I suspect its a put on but you never know with Slick Nick.

I didn't see it because I don't watch Andy Griffith. At what point will N@N realize that they goofed for excluding The Facts of Life, The Jeffersons, All in the Family and Laverne & Shirley from the unrealathons? This network never used to insult the viewer's intelligence like they do now.

Believe it or not there are some people that like different sitcoms than you do. TAGS, Gilligan, TC are some of them.

Yea plus, they had to include threes company cause it gets the most viewers, and Brady Bunch so that kids will watch it too....

I think they prob. had planned to show 'Gilligan' the entire time, but due to the lack of episodes, they couldn't make too many themes.

Truth · 08-06-2001, 05:31 PM

True, But why take out I love lucy instead of Andy Griffith? I think more peeps wath Luvy then Griffith

I think the reason they took off I Love Lucy is because Nick at Nite / TV Land want more people to tune into the 50th Anniversary Special on TV Land. If they showed it all through August, people might get tired of it, and wouldn't watch the anniversary special.

Who could get tired of Lucy?

Besides, maybe N@N should consider that not everyone gets TVLand. I don't, and thank goodness I taped all episodes before this once-classic channel dumped Lucy.

I happen to like Gilligan's Island, but to do this, on Lucy's B-Day no less? Ugh.....some appreciation shown to it's fans.

Wednesday: Three's Company
Thursday: All in the family
Friday: Variety shows Sonny and sher comedy hour and carol Burnett

Right on!

Nothing rude this channel does shocks me. They made me so made in 1997 when they dumped The Monkees in favor of Green Acres! They've sucked ever since.

Nick-at-nite was doing good awhile ago in the ratings, but it seems like they keep on trying to make Nick better..... Well by putting Family Ties and Cheeres on Nick, That will make it worst, Nick already has too many shows!

Excuse me but Cheers is NO WHERE in this state or the next two.I really do like both shows so bug off!And to 'James' I think you are the most brain dead person alive.I mean all the shows you like are stupid.I mean anyone here likes "The Brady Bunch"? I think they are stupid!I especially think they need to find their way off of NAN!I mean Lucy has been here for SEVEN YEARS!And TBB has been here for THREE YEARS!THEY NEED TO GO!I think Hillbillies should have stayed.They only been on NAN for a year but they get dropped.I think Three's Company will help keep NAN together along with Diff'rent Strokes and Facts of Life.And watch how many new great shows from the 80s NAN is going to add.This should be the un-real sked:
It would be a spin-offs thing
Mondays:The Mary Tyler Moore Show Family:
Mary Tyler Moore Show
Rhoda
Phyllis
Tuesdays:The Beverly Hillbillies Family:
Beverly Hillbillies
Petticoat Junction
Green Acres
Wednesdays:The Three's Company Family:
Three's Company
The Ropers
Three's a Crowd
Man About the House
Thursdays:Happy Days Family
Happy Days
Laverne and Shirley
Mork and Mindy
Joanie Loves Chachi
Fridays:All in the Family Family
All in the Family
Jeffersons
Gloria
Good Times
Maude
Saturdays:The TAGS Family
TAGS
Gomer Pyle
Mayberry R.F.D.
Make Room for Daddy
Sundays:The Short Lived Spin-offs:
Flo
Just the 10 of Us
Fish
The Torellis

If you want a staright foward one-show kind of thing let me suggest:

Mon:The Mary Tyler Moore Show
Tues:Three's Company
Wed:Sanford and Son
Thurs:Alice
Fri:That Girl
Sun:The Hogan Family
