Is Diff'rent Strokes REALLY on TNN these days? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

This has got to be the 3rd time I happened to be up and decided to turn on the TV for a change, in hope of catching an ep of DS. I turned on my TV to TNN at midnight, expecting to see DS (as the TV guide in my area indicates), only to see some show called "Pop Across America."

Am I missing something here? Is DS really on these days, or am I mistaken about the time slot?

OK- I guess it's supposedly on at 12 noon instead of midnight. Of course, I am usually not home at that time, but there are a couple of times I was home at that time and did not see it on TNN.

Which brings me back to my original question: Is DS REALLY on TNN these days?

It has been on at 12pm-1pm since TNN started it. 12pm = afternoon (noon), 12am = latenight (midnight). You are not the first person to be confused about their scheduling though as other people have asked me where it was airing at night.

There was one or two times when it hasn't been on due to a marathon or something else.

Yeah it wasnt on on 3/15 because of the Fame For 15 marathon but other than that its been on every week day since it started.

Yeah, and it won't be on Memorial Day (5/27) because of a Baywatch marathon.

Thanks everyone. Yep, I know the difference between noon (pm) and midnight (am) but I was mistaken about the time of day I thought it was on, (I wasn't careful to check my local listings first, LOL).

Looks like it was just my dumb luck that the one time I was home in the afternoon and tried to catch it then, it just happened to not have been on that day (rats

).
