TV Land schedule update:
EFFECTIVE OCT 22 M-F:
2-4AM is Paid Programming (Every night)4:00AM Mary Tyler Moore
4:30AM The Honeymooners

EFFECTIVE NOV 5:
12:30AM Taxi
1:00AM Roc
1:30AM The Odd Couple
2-4AM Paid Programming remains
everything else is the same...

So looks like Alfred Hitchcock and Charlie's Angels have vanished effective last night!

Paid programming should be on Nick at Nite, not on TV Land...

Not my charlie's angels!

Again, and I don't want to start an arguement, but no matter how much money Viacom has, they are not going to throw money at a network that can't seem to pull it's own weight. I mean, the "I Love Lucy" marathon REALLY helped the network, but still, ya just don't expect the parent company to just give money to something that they are not sure will succeed. Paid Programming is the best way to get a network money.

I'm HAppy I Recorded Some CA Episodes-But I'd Rather See 'Love Boat' go, or put it on at 6 AM instead of "Mannix" or Noon For "Maverick"

I Don't Mind the Paid Progamming, It's Just It Always Knocks Off My Favorite Shows...Ahh, but that's life. Another station will air it, and I don't care if 'Hitchcock' is ever seen again.

But Seriously, Why Don't They Move it to 10 PM where they air repeats of 'Hillbillies' and TAGS? Unless they lost the license.

Sorry, Got Off Sitcoms There!

I don't...

As long as they leave Adam-12 alone, I won't complain. Bad enough it's on at 4-freakin'-o'clock in the morning (central).

Weird how they show a show, dump it, bring it back, then dump it again. (Hitchcock)

BUT DON'T TOUCH ADAM-12!!!!!!!! They ever dump that and TV Land's getting an email. Well, probabaly not, but I'll be mad.

Anyway, back to regular discussing....

I thank TV Land everynite because this insomniac would never fall asleep w/o my paid programming.

This is slightly off-topic, but has anyone seen that infomercial about the steam cooker/frying pan where you can cook an entire meal in one pot? They cook all kinds of gross food in it, like cupcakes topped with a cherry cola sauce, and tortellini with a cream soup sauce. For some strange reason, I'm totally fascinated by it.
