According to Me TV. Com Me TV will be airring its first Original Program called Collectors Call. It will air 13 episodes.Hosted by Lisa Welchel (She Portrayed Blair) On The Facts Of Life. It will air Every Sunday at 10pm. Starting April 7, 2019.

My question is will Me TV be making any other additional Schedule Changes? In addition will this Original be like how TVLAND shows it’s originals with Encores all over the Schedule?

Me-TV announced its first original series today, a series called "Collector's Call". Thirteen episodes will make up the first season. The series will be hosted by Lisa Whelchel, who acted on "The Facts of Life". The series will premiere on Sunday, April 7th.

OPINION ALERT: This looks like a "American Pickers" knockoff of some sort, only it deals with pop culture memorabilia.

Any thoughts? I, for one, wish Me-TV wouldn't delve into original series, because, OPINION ALERT, that's exactly what TV Land did, and look at them now.

*EDIT** Fixed grammar and stated opinions because a few certain people didn't understand.

Looks like you beat me to this post! I actually just finished posting the same topic. I think my thread should be deleted, since this is the first one.

I wish Me-TV wouldn't try to delve into original shows, it's similar to what TV Land did.

The beginning of the end for the network.

If you want to do that, it doesn't matter to me!

Earliest timestamp takes precedence.

Does anybody know if Me TV will be having any other additional Schedule Changes?

Will this original be like TVLAND and air many encores at different times on the Regular Schedule?

Yep. This is it.

Isn't something like this more fit for Decades?

MeTV has now definitely gone downhill for sure. Sad.

Merry24 · 02-28-2019, 07:36 PM

Looking at Me TV’s facebook comments it looks like most people are interested.

PS Although maybe those interested are the ones who are behind the scenes of this original.

Wow. People bash Antenna TV for credit crunching, but at least they aren't planning any original series and I don't think they ever will. If Me-TV likes this original, gradually more and more originals will come reducing the time for classics. Sound like what happened to TV Land?

Ugh..not good news.

Let's hope this doesn't turn into another clone of TV Land...
