Default What Network?

Which network out of the 4 the show has aired on in syndication (USA Network, Nick @ Nite, TV Land, The Hallmark Channel) do you like the best? As in cut scenes and logo appearance? And, if you got to choose what syndication channel you could have it on, which channel would would it be???

I'll answer my own questions 1st! (duh)

So far, I'd have to say I like it best on The Hallmark Channel. As for which Network I'd prefer it on, it would be The Hallmark Channel, because even if they DO cut out scenes, they aren't important (such as Like Mother, Like Daughter...They did take another cut scene and put it in it's place, though!) and I like the logo on the show....

Well I don't know yet. N@N was fine with me until I moved to a place that doesn't get N@N. Hallmark is okay I guees, if more people had it. But I noticed yesterday during IQ that they took their logo off during like the whole episode. I wonder why they did that.

I know all networks edit the show, but which one was worse. I didn't watch that often on Nick, but I'm sure they edited it to death. I think Hallmark is the best place for it right now, and the smushed credits really don't bother me. I too like how they show some of the episode before the opening credits. But does Hallmark butcher the show, it runs 21 minutes without commercials, but are some edited scenes put back in? Just curious. I doubt it, but... FOL just seems different. I'm gonna check my TVLand tapes and compare, LOL.

Default Hallmark is the Perfect Network!

I've never seen it on USA but Nick-at-Nite had bad time-slots a couple times, and the hardly never aired the "cotriversal" episodes and they cut them up, but they did show almost every episode, right?

But Hallmark is @ a pretty good time! And they do show a little before the theme song, which I like, and they don't go strait into the theme song, which is good. And then, they air a short commercial after, which is great. And they say "were back" which is nice for viewing purposes, and they hardly ever cut the episodes up atleast not as much Nick@Nite did and USA. So I'd have to say Hallmark! Hallmark Has to be one of the best places for it though because Hallmark airs Family entertainment.

Hallmark would be better if everybody had it, I guess how you think about it its okay, I guess. And they block the credits with network advertisement. But I'd really couldn't tell.

I've only seen it Nick-At-Nite. But I hate that station for taking The Facts of Life off.

IF you ask me, it's fine where it is....Of course, that's because I have Hallmark...

As far as editing them...ORIGINAL BROADCAST RULES!..Seriously, USA was probably the best, as they aired around 98% of the eps...N@N skipped quite a bit, and only showed uncut eps for 2 weeks (the marathon and repeat of)

Hallmark looks to be doing rather well...They're showing the eps cut in the preferred style (mostly uncut, move the opening scene to before the opening theme, etc.)...Hallmark Channel logo dosen't block out half the screen (and has this tendency to disappear at times)..They MAY be able to take #1 from USA, if they can just get airings in more markets..
