Antenna playing much later season eps on weekends - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I wonder why? I was watching Saturday and yesterday and Andy is already born. Not just a baby, but he's a little boy already! And yesterdays ep. Malory and Nick were eloping!!! Funny 2 part ep.!! When Alex came running in objecting to the marriage, and it was the other couple!

It's weird they are skipping way ahead like that!

I'm not sure why channels do that. I've seen Hallmark do the same thing to Frasier.

I'm sure it was strange to go from one of the early seasons to a later one. I keep forgetting Family Ties is on Antenna TV. So glad I have the series on dvd.

When I do remember I turn it on.

They started with Season 5 for the weekend run but I refuse to watch it on weekends because they do the split screen credit crunch. I'm somehow living with the commercial credit crunch on weeknights but I hate that too. I don't know why they feel the need to show Antenna TV promos during the credits.

Weeknights and weekends are two separate rotations for Family Ties. Weeknights started at the beginning of season 1, weekends started at the beginning of season 5.
