Well this confirms it, DECADES only airs sitcoms from the 1950's-1980's

Decades sent a email and as I was scrolling down I saw this image.

If this makes you unhappy, I'd simply say be patient. All the "oldies" channels seem prone to decade creep.....I'd be more than happy if one of them would just stick to the 50s and 60s, but they all seem to try to be like TV Land, eventually.
I think it mostly has to do with capitalism and that obsession with constant growth. They'll see some other network having success with newer era stuff, and they decide to play "monkey see, monkey do" and try to peal away some audience from a competitor.
It makes me unhappy....but I guess even network programmers are not immune to the "grass is greener" mindset.

No im fine, someone asked me in another thread do Decades air shows from the 90's and I was like.........."I never seen any on that channel" and the email confirmed it.

I'm sort of puzzled by this thread...was there ever any doubt that Decades airs shows from the 50's to the 80's? They have been showing the same daytime lineup for almost 3 years now, plus Ed Sullivan, Laugh-In and Dick Cavett shows from the 60's to the late 80's. The same applies to the weekend "binges". For my money, this network is the best of the diginets with some of TV's classiest shows.

I like it i just created this thread because someone wanted to know if they aired any shows from the 90's. So just in case someone else wanted to know I posted this

Can’t you just look at their schedule and see they don’t show anything past the ‘80s? I can just look at ESPN’s schedule and see they only show sports. Don’t need any written confirmation.

There will be a couple of 90s shows in the 12:30am Eastern slot starting August 24th, after Vega$ ends - Bob (1992-1993) and Brooklyn Bridge (1991-1993).

I see Bob was Bob Newhart 3rd comedy and I will check that out

Newhart technically aired until 1990
