WOW! A lot of variety there...NOT! Why do they have so many double takes?! They should show EVERY show on their lineup at least once in my opinion.

Quick question, where the heck is Facts
of Life? I thought Facts of Life was
coming back during the 4:30 am time slot
or has, excuse my french, screwed up N@N
changed their mind? N@N is really ticking
me off!!!!!

Krisalicious · 09-27-2001, 03:21 PM

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! NO FOL?!?!?!?!?!? WHat is nick@nite's problem????

TV Guy · 09-27-2001, 04:31 PM

N@N's whole scheduling mentality really makes me scratch my head. I can understand scheduling two episodes in a row for a new acquisition like "Cheers", where there are so many episodes that N@N wants to run through them all a few times before people get tired of the show. But "The Brady Bunch"? There are only 117 episodes, and they'll run through the cycle in about 12 weeks, which is way too fast. And "Diff'rent Strokes" hasn't even run through all its episodes on N@N, and already it's down to two shows a week.

And why they have to REPEAT the doubletakes, such as "Cheers" and "Family Ties", overnight is beyond me. But let's face it -- it's all about making money, and somehow, N@N is maximizing the return on their acquisitions by running the shows this way.

Okay, thanks for the warning! Guess I won't be watching Nick at Nite for a while.

Pavan · 10-08-2001, 09:16 AM

Sunday schedule has changed already:

(Starting this Sunday, October 14)

11-12 Family Ties
12-1 Three's Company
1-2 Cheers

Diff'rent Strokes 11-12 is gone, as well as Laverne & Shirley at 5am!
Of course Sunday Oct 21, 9-12 will be the Halloween special, but 12am-5am will be this schedule.

Pavan · 10-09-2001, 01:36 PM

Diff'rent Strokes and Laverne & Shirley will still air on that Sunday October 21st special.

I am more and more thinking that DS and FOL were indeed a part of this Screen Gems deal.

LucyFan · 10-09-2001, 10:09 PM

I am sorry to say that Nick at Nite is going down the tubes. What in the heck are they thinking? They will only be airing six shows and getting rid of a whole bunch. In the past, N@N usually aired eleven or ten shows a night and now it is limited to very few shows a night. I don't know about you, but I'm losing my respect and viewership with Nick at Nite and I find myself ignoring N@N and going to diff'rent channels like TV Land and the Hallmark channel. In conclusion, Nick at Nite resembles a piece of trash trying to look good.

10-10-2001, 12:29 AM

Cheers before Family Ties? This makes no sense at all because younger viewers that follow Family Ties may not be able to stay up late.

boechsner · 10-10-2001, 12:54 AM

Only one episode of The Jeffersons at 5am. Nick at Nite is the worst cable channel. I pray to God, TV Land picks up The Brady Bunch and The Jeffersons, which are the only good shows on a nearly departed cable network.

Chelsea · 10-14-2001, 05:56 AM

I'd post my thoughts on this, but I'm not permitted to use THAT kind of language on these good forums.....
