Different Strokes must have lost viewers because starting April 7th the show will be - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

only seen twice a week on sunday nights from 9pm to 10pm.

That's the first sign of upcoming removal, reduced airings

I thought the same thing because I was surprised that they are cutting it back so much. Actually, you can watch the first 5 seasons free on Encore on Demand.

chriszme · 02-20-2014, 05:48 PM

Where is the new lineup shown?

Mace Dolex · 02-20-2014, 06:20 PM

Damn that's not good news and I already hated how they moved it weekdays from 6pm to 5pm because I didn't get off work until 6 and that made me miss watching the 8th season and now we have this nonsense.

But at least Too Close For Comfort is coming back on schedule from what I hear.

I'm not into that whole downloading streaming crap, I wanna watch shows like a normal person on TV.

I think he means on TV not downloading anything

mets82 · 02-24-2014, 04:59 PM

I do mean on demand. I, too, cant download or figure out how to download to save my life.

(scratches throat) So those of us are not normal that stream? IJS.

It did not lose ratings, they just changed up the schedule to accommodate their new schedule. Too Close For Comfort and Three's Company is coming back.

What the hell are you talking about?

Pavan · 04-05-2014, 01:21 PM

It doesn't have anything to do with ratings. They are switching it up.

BettyWhiteFan · 05-03-2014, 12:23 PM

Someone needs to do something about TVFACTFAN! I am getting sick of his aggressive behavior! Why is this allowed?

If he says one more negative thing to me I am reporting him and letting as many people know about this cyber bully as I can!

I was skipping ahead on my Fios receiver's program guide to see what the Antenna TV schedule would be starting September 1 and it looks like Diff'rent Strokes is returning to weeknights from 9-10 P.M. (unless it's a one-time airing for Labor Day - I only have that day in the guide so far).

I am already sick of it

BigManMike · 08-19-2014, 10:47 PM

Yes, it will now be on 6 nights a week Sunday-Friday which is a little too much but still better than too little like 2 episodes a week that they're doing now.
