Cool so far. I am a fan of Welcome Back Kotter, my dad said I would probably like Perfect Strangers. Hate to see Dennis go, but am glad I'm taping it now. I am eager for the latest updates. Thanks again, pavanbadal!

[Sitcomwriter]

No more MH,MH? WHOA! I'm surprised at that one especilly since Square Pegs has only 24 episodes and MH,MH has 315!

Like I said, stay tuned for the full August schedule. It's gone from the Kitschen lineup, but that doesn't mean it is gone yet. It could air weekdays. Just stay tuned...

[Central Perk]

I'd like to catch Square Pegs...Hmm Can't Wait Til August.

[Impressions]

Whoa! I still can't believe it MH,MH was such a good show! The Monkees were great also, where are they going? We'll just have to wait and find out!
Will Dennis the Menace come back again!? Atleast we get more shows!I was wondering where these shows were headed! That's Amazing information Pavanbadal, I'm looking foward to all these new shows, The're all great!

[JT]

Yea! I hope MH2, Dennis, and Monkees are staying. Maybe MH2 will be on in the afternoons? I'm so glad that Perfect Strangers, Welcome Back Kotter, and Square Pegs are coming! Tho Perfect Strangers is kinda new (ending in 1986), WBK and SP are classic enough!

[StrawberryFields]

No more Monkees? =( That's terrible. I sure do hope that they just give them a better time slot. If they don't, I'll watch Tv Land even less. I'm down to Gidget and the Monkees and Dick van Dyke--every now and then Gilligan and Happy Days. Rarely those 2.

[Ziggy]

YAAAAAAYY!! This new schedule is so fantastic!!!!!!!!!
I love all these new shows (esp. FKB) and I'm sooo glad MH, MH is finally gone !

[Lance Link]

I hope this doesn't become a regular thing with TV Land by showing about a quarter of the episodes, dropping the show, adding another and doing the same thing.

[Mr. Shy Guy]

Any new news on Archie Bunker's Place?

[StrawberryFields]

Ask Morty says that Archie Bunker's Place starts on Tv Land in August. I agree. It's ridiculous to show a few episodes and then stop. Utterly ridiculous. I am VERY disappointed.

[TVJunkie101]

Well, like Pavan said, he only had a FEW details. I had a feeling the Kitschen lineup would change. And they're probably only keep Fernwood 2Night because Martin Mull and Fred Willard host the Kitschen as well as they hosted Fernwood 2Night.

I would hate it too if this became a recurring thing, adding shows for a few months, then dropping them, but apparently TVLand has done this before (Chico and the Man for one, My Favorite Martian). I really can see this new August lineup as being the best one yet, if they keep a lot of their shows. I am thinking that Twice as Nice will change also (besides FKB, which I'm glad is coming, but sad it's replacing Dennis, good thing I taped it).

Maybe Dennis will go to Better Living Through Television? Hmmm... I think TVLand will keep most of the new shows with the even newer shows, but are just trying to give the new/new shows more "exposure" in different time slots to see what works?

[Sitcomwriter]

Possibly after the 24 episodes of "Square Pegs: (2 episodes a week that's sure to go quickly!) they'll get back to MH,MH because if not that'll just be boring to watch an episode one night and the same episode a couple weeks later!

[Pavan]

Since TV Land has changed the July schedule, efftecive July 8th, I'm not sure Father Knows Best will remain at 3 and 3:30 starting July 29th...I'll know by tomorrow or Monday, along with the rest of the August schedule.
