Am I losing ME-TV? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

mets82 · 10-05-2015, 05:43 PM

I just saw an ad on ME-TV that Heroes and Icons would be coming. I got the impression that would replace ME-TV on my station. Does anybody know if this is true?

Wow!!! IDK??? That station is still an oldies station but doesn't seem like it will play too many comedy shows!

You may just be getting H & I in addition. They have to advertise somewhere, and Me-TV has the right demographic. We'll have to keep our fingers crossed for you.

The main thing I watch on H & I is Mannix. I also like Kung Fu, but watching isn't a priority because my brother has all of the DVDs.

I'm lucky to receive the following:

Antenna
Me
H & I
Cozi
Decades

I watch all of them now -- I love how Decades is doing marathons on the weekends. They had Wm. Demarest (My Three Sons - Uncle Charley) on Celebrity Bowling and he was already into his 80s...! And some of my favorite other TV people like Lois Nettleton and Kate Jackson (with GREAT long hair!). Naked City marathon this coming weekend -- woo-hoo! Nancy Malone - HOT

Can you send the local station an email? My local ME-TV station has been advertising MundoFox, but they also give the channel number for that station.

If you are referring to WZME Bridgeport, it is true that Heroes and Icons will be replacing Me-TV.

If you can receive WJLP Middletown Township (RF 3/Virtual 33.1) either over the air or via cable/satellite television, that would be the next closest affiliate.

Wow! Yes you are lucky. I'd be in Heaven if I got all those....I'd be thankful if I got one of those. I keep hoping someday channels like those will be available to everyone.

I get ME TV, ANTENNA TV, COZI DECADES and BUZZR (no, that's not spelled wrong; that's how the station spells it) They show old game shows from the 60s, 70s and 80s.

The only ones I watch though are ME TV and BUZZR because DECADES and COZI show everything with black bars on both sides of the screen and ANTENNA TV "crunches" the closing credits.

opus · 10-06-2015, 11:10 AM

I get Me, Antenna, and Cozi thru the cable. I can get Buzzr, Decades, and Laff if I hook up the antenna.

Wow, that means ME-TV is gone in my area, I'm assuming.

all these "retro-channels"-I think it's great that someone finally got so fed-up with what TV LAND & NICK AT NITE became; that they've done something about it!!

I just found Buzzr on my lineup and watch it often. I'll probably get H&I but Me Tv is actually a local station that we would get without cable.

I forgot to mention I also receive THIS-TV and "Movies!."

THIS has been disappointing lately, with the exception of a few interesting films. Movies! has more of the stuff I want to see, like the Martin & Lewis comedies, and also comedies from the late '60s/ early '70s (like The Sterile Cuckoo and Barefoot in the Park).

When was Celebrity Bowling on? I don't ever recall bumping into the show back then. I happened the other day to see on Decades James Farantino and wife Michele Lee bowl. None of the stars were too great with the bowling ball but they looked like they had fun.

Sorry to hear that!

At least you can still watch some full episodes on their website.

I just did a rescan on my TV and yep sure enough I have H&I on channel 13.4.
