Fantastic.

Now let's see if we can actually get to the seasons that still aren't on DVD yet.

BensonFan · 11-30-2015, 07:58 PM

And by the way, a very happy 88th birthday today to Benson himself, Robert Guillaume!

Just curious, as I don't have Familynet, has anyone been viewing/recording? Please PM me if recording.

I see that currently FN is up to mid-season 5. Thanks!

I have been recording them to my DVR BUT I have no clue how to convert them from there to DVD.

I record on my DVR with Dish Network and then transfer it to a DVD all the time. When I first asked a Dish guy about it, he said you couldn't do it. But you can. On Dish, when you want to watch TV, I set my TV to HDMI 2. When I turn on my DVD player/recorder, I set my TV to Video 2. Then I'm able to record my shows from the DVR to a DVD. Hope this helps!

I have been recording them as well since they started airing them.They are midway into season 5 now but there guide on there website shows them starting over next Tuesday with the pilot episode then showing the first season again.So for some reason they are not finishing season 5 and showing any of season 6 or 7.Just like when they aired the final episode of Barney Miller about two weeks ago the next day they started over showing season 4 from the beginning.So its great they are airing Benson its just odd that they would not finish all the seasons before starting over.If they do start over next week it would be nice to what it would take to get them to air all of the episodes this time.

I guess they actually are showing a few episodes of season 6.In some random order.They aired episode 1 and 2 from season 6 today Saturday January 23rd.Then Monday they jump up all the way to episode 15 of season 6.Then starting Tuesday January 26th they are starting over with season 1 from the beginning.Maybe this time they will air all 7 seasons and every episode.

Let's hope so. They have played the first three seasons of Barney Miller before, so I don't know why they skipped them this time.

lj01 · 01-25-2016, 01:02 PM

are the episodes cut or time-sped (or both)? I assume they are still missing the tag scenes?

mets82 · 01-25-2016, 04:07 PM

I dont get FamilyNet but didnt Antenna TV have the same problem?? They got about to season 5 or 6 and then they took it off?

joeacademy · 01-26-2016, 10:28 AM

It's interesting, the first three seasons were uncut and had the tag scenes. Each episode ran for 25 minutes. But once they started showing season 4, only the first few episodes were uncut and then everything since then was the 22 minute syndicated version without the tags.
