A few schedule changes on weekdays starting August 21. I'm only listing the changes here and linking to the PDF.

NEW/RETURNING SHOWS: The Facts of Life, Diagnosis Murder, T.J. Hooker, Hawaii Five-0, Cannon

SHOWS LEAVING: Mister Ed, Remington Steele, The Brady Bunch (from weekdays, will still be on Sunday), Gilligan's Island, Happy Days, The Andy Griffith Show (color episodes)/The Odd Couple, Mayberry RFD, Ironside

CHANGES:

6AM: The Facts of Life
11AM: Diagnosis Murder
5PM: TJ Hooker
6PM: Hawaii Five-0
3AM: Cannon

Also, the alternate program for markets that can't show The Andy Griffith Show will now be Gomer Pyle instead of Mayberry RFD.

Too bad about Remington Steele leaving

Why is Facts of Life at 6AM??? Couldn't find a timeslot @ 8:30PM for it??? And plus I thought it was coming to Antenna next year?

BigManMike · 07-31-2017, 07:10 PM

Even though I have the complete series of Facts of Life on DVD, I sure am glad it's on MeTV instead of Antenna since they don't crunch credits. I just wish it was on at night instead.

I'm glad "The Beverly Hillbillies" is staying on at 4pm weekdays.

6am for "The Facts of Life"? That's an odd choice. I wish it was on at 5pm or in the afternoons.

Saturdays are still a stinker. Also the westerns on every weekday is a snooze fest.

I'm sick of not having ME-TV.

Either Mr. Ed wasn't working for them or they lost the rights. I noticed This TV picked it up recently.

Does anyone know if Sony syndicates The Facts of Life? I think MeTV must have worked some deal with Sony...this is probably how they now have the rights to more Donna Reed Show episodes.

They should have put two Facts of Life on in place where that lousy Hogan's Heroes is. That show has been on in the same time forever.

Agreed!!

6 AM is WAY too early for me!

And Cannon. I would love to see that, but no way I can at 3 AM!

Glad Diagnosis murder is coming back though!

Mr. Television · 07-31-2017, 10:17 PM

Cannon and TJ Hooker.

No but I have a DVR. I'll just set it and watch it at a good time. I haven't seen Cannon in years. I wish they'd add Barnaby Jones. TJ Hooker I haven't seen since the 80's.

I love Cannon! I saw it a few years back on METV when they played crime shows on Sunday afternoons!!

Before that I hadn't seen it in years either!
