My Favorite Martian is Coming to Antenna TV - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I just saw it advertised, coming this spring.

These same shows just keep playing musical chairs with different channels. My Favorite Martian has been on COZI TV for a little while now, now it skips to Antenna. At least Antenna will show it without local channels pre-empting it constantly with their lousy local news shows. When Cozi ran some really good shows they were pre-empted 1/2 the time for local NBC channels running their own local crap. Antenna won't do that so you won't miss episodes every other showing. But they will destroy the end credits by shrinking them down to where you can't read them and muting the music in order to at the same time run the opening of the following show. Craziest dern idea I've seen yet.

GET TV had the right idea several years ago (they've since lost their minds too with a whole lot of bad shows) but back then they actually showed shows you never see on TV, "Mrs. G Goes To College", "Jimmy Stewart Show", "Nanny & Professor", "Girl With Something Extra" shows I haven't seen since they were originally on for the first time.

But alas, that was a brief beautiful dream that was over after about a year and now the normal crapola is back.

On Antenna My Favorite Martian would pair well with Bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie since all are cut from similar cloth.

So I guess 9AM here, PT !?

The episodes are complete, no edits for extra commercial time, although they seem to be airing old prints. Yes, the closing credits are shrunk as they reduce the opening scene for the next episode.

They are also running 2 episodes Saturday nights 11-12 midnight ET , 8-9 PT.
