Default better seasons please

When is Hallmark going to show the episodes after season 1. I hate season one I wish they would do what USA Network did when they showed the FOL. Never show season one. I loved that about them. I hate season 1 make it end.

Good Lord...

I'm venting, so clear the area...

Whether you like Season 1 or not, it's part of the show. There are people that only like the last few seasons. There are people who like the middle. There are others who like just the beginning.

Stop whining. Be glad that the show is back on the air. Appreciate the fact that (so far) they are airing the "controversial" episodes that N@N, TVLand and USA did not. Enjoy the "teasers" at the beginning of the program.

And, if anything... there's this thing called a remote control. Change the channel. Find something else on. Go read a book. Take a walk. Call grandma. Do something else constructive.

I'm not taking this out on you personally, but there are always posts about "I hate season 1" and such. Yet, you know what... without season 1, there wouldn't have been seasons 2-9. So, give it some credit.

Calm down killer. you're not gonna get much sympathy since you get Hallamrk unlike a lot of people here. Plusif it wasn;t fro season 1, there would be no FOL at all. Just hold on to your clothes until 5:30 pm tonight. Then you might be happy.

You vented rather well. I'd just like to agree with you on everything you said---I agree


I would gladly sit through season one in order to see all the others. Unfortunately, I can't because I don't get the Hallmark Channel. Be thankful you will be able to see the other seasons.


Also, look at it this way. If it hadn't been for season one, which everyone has different opinions on, many people would not have been able to appreciate how far the show came from beginning to end. It really got better and better...



I'm with jayman on this one though

A) Season 1 had some GREAT shows!

B) Season 1 is only 13 freakin' episodes---you can have patience for 5 days, can't ya?

You must have already, for Season 2 starts today at 5:30 EST. And I, for one, will miss the cozy dorm of Season 1, Cindy, Mr. Bradley, and some of the awesome episodes...

*sigh*

Those provide some wonderful childhood memories for me of reruns at my grandparents' house. Along with the classic CAFETERIA YEARS! Startin' today! WOO-HOO!

Since you put it so well,...your right. I have got not one ounce of sympathy for you. Change the damn channel. I'm sick of people complaining about what episodes they are and are not going to show on Hallmark, while half of us don't even GET Hallmark. Be happy with what you have, and don't wish for more!

Thanks for the vote. I'm just so tired of hearing about how Hallmark isn't doing them in order, or the editing it bad or this or that. There are so many on here that probably never saw the original versions on NBC like me. So, you may miss it, but you don't know what you are missing.

I just had to get on my soapbox and make my point. Thanks for reaffirming.

Huh? What do you mean not in order? They pretty much are since they're goin' by season, so what's that about?

And you can barely tell any editing, and it seems to have most of the show, unlike on N@N---and I LOVE the teasers!

Umm... I don't care if you don't like season one because I love it so shut up! It ended anyway, Why are you watching season one if you don't like it?

USA aired every episode I believe.. controversial ones and all.

What do you mean USA didn't air season one? I have several season one episodes from USA.

Talky --

From what I can tell of the schedules I have seen (which have not been too much, since I don't get Hallmark), they are airing the shows in seasons, but skipping around a bit. I believe I saw a post on here that said it was like episode 4, then 7, the next day 5 and 8, or something to that effect. That's what I was refering to.

Plus, people still question the editing. I just wish we could enjoy the show without analyzing it too much...

And I apologize if USA *did* show the controversial episodes. I never saw them when I watched (which was irregular). Plus, I thought I had read on here also that they weren't on USA>

Does this make any sense? I just don't want to take the enjoyment out of the show by studying it too much.
