This will be the first time this show comes to TVLand.

JR1 · 08-20-2015, 03:55 PM

If it's the first time on the channel, how would it be "returns"?

This is good to see- I haven't seen it regularly in ages.

tenter · 08-20-2015, 04:00 PM

Sorry, not "returns", I meant to say it'll be first time showing on TVLand.

Facts of Life have previously aired on Hub network, formerly on Nick at Nite in 2000-2001, little time on Teennick weekday mornings 2012 I think..

Odd choice to put it on TV land. It'd fit better on Nick @ Nite.

DJM77 · 08-20-2015, 07:13 PM

This is surprising news.

I think FOL should be on Antenna TV, they had the show Diffr'nt Strokes and FOL was its spin-off so why not?

And definitely a year too late.

This would be thrilling news... if I couldn't pull out the box set and watch every episode whenever I wanted.

BigManMike · 08-22-2015, 10:55 AM

Yes it's several years too late. I'm sure it will be butchered to death and have credit crunches making it unwatchable. Lucky for me. I have the complete series box set from Shout and I've enjoyed it.

Exactly, this would have been big news back in 2005 when the show wasn't on DVD or nowhere on cable

It doesn't even seem like a TV Land type of show since the first 5 seasons are geared toward kids 10 to 17.

Unless TV land will just air the last 2 seasons over and over

It'd be nice if the started airing The Golden Girls on weekdays leading into or following The Facts of Life. The shows originally aired together on NBC and I think they go well together.

'80sSitcoms · 08-27-2015, 08:13 AM

^--- If anything would be paired with The Golden Girls, it should be Empty Nest.

mets82 · 08-27-2015, 03:26 PM

I'm glad FOL is coming to TVLand. I mean it cant be any worse then when they air on LOGO? They air the same damn ones all the time!!!

I do know that TVLand will end credit crunch it to death. Now, I have a feeling it wont last long on TVLand. I mean this is TVLand we are talking about.
Btw, will the show still air on Logo?
