I like that Fathers Knows Best is moved out from 9am slot. For those fans that get both FETV and Antenna, I know it causes some anxiety that both air an hour block at the same time. They are left uncertain which channel to tune to.

On another note, I prefer 227 over Gimme A Break. I'd wish 227 would stay on the weekday schedule over Gimme A Break getting weekday coverage.

[Merry24]

Thank you. I’m happy you like my Suggestions. I emailed Antenna TV this Schedule suggestion and I hope they will consider this when they make there 4th Quarter 2020 lineup! Or atleast get some suggestion’s off this suggestion!

I do enjoy both Gimmie A Break & 227. Gimmie A Break is more of a dramedy than 227 and that’s why I enjoy 227 more!

[Merry24]

I sure hope Antenna TV does something for New Years Eve. What better way than having a Magical New Years Eve?! I remember last year it was the Regular schedule. I think having “I Dream Of Jeannie” & “Bewitched” Marathons would be different and fun!

[AMackII]

I love your suggestion for Antenna TV’s Autumn Schedule, Merry24. Johnny Carson airing from 6pm-12am ET on New Year’s Day 2021 & Who’s The Boss Marathon on November 3rd is one of must-sees

[Merry24]

Thanks AMack!

Here's what I think is going to be pretty close to what the schedule is in the fall. We'll see how *accurate* this is seeing as I obviously don't know what the schedule will be, but this is what I think it's going to look pretty similar to. But again, we'll see.

Hi Sven, Hope your having a good day.

You don’t see Who’s The Boss? Airring any Primetime slots?

Would What’s Happenning Now also go on Hiatus?

I hope you're having a good day too, Merry24!

At this point for Who's the Boss, honestly I can't see it in any primetime slots. 5-6pm Weekdays right now is my prediction with Gimme a Break moved to another time or another day. It seems like a good pairing with The Facts of Life and Diff'rent Strokes. Benson also seems, with 7 seasons, that it would be good for 7-8PM Weeknights. I also just don't see them breaking away from the double-length, hour format for their shows for the fall. Maybe next year if and when they add more shows.

I guess What's Happening Now on my schedule would go on Hiatus, but it would probably come back early in 2021. I'd much rather see Gimme a Break leave though, it's been there long enough!

[Svenfan1234]

Also for January...in my "it'll never happen on Antenna, but I can hope" column... Chico and the Man! I would love for that show to come to Antenna. And also, What's Happening Now is still on my schedule from 5-6pm Sundays but Welcome Back Kotter is not which is not terribly different from where it is now. Room 222 is also on my "love for it to come to Antenna but it'll never happen" column that I'd love for it to come.

[Merry24]

I changed my opening post on my schedule a little bit.

Does anybody else have any other suggestions-predictions on what Antenna TV’s 4th Quarter 2020 Schedule might be?

[stevea]

Svenfan--just wondering about Benson on M-F early evening. Haven't they had problems with Benson before?

Not sure about problems, but they have had it in the Weekday lineup before. That's what I know. I'm also surprised we haven't had a schedule leak by now.

[stevea]

Yeah what's going on with schedule changes? Geez, we're nearly halfway thru Sept.--I wonder if there aren't any changes.

The new schedule with Who's the Boss? starts October 5. Antenna TV just takes forever announcing it, often not until two weeks before the new schedule starts.
