How long will Diff'rent Strokes be on TNN? Because I'm worried they might take it off on a quick notice, and I wouldn't like to see it go. Does anybody know how many years are on there contract and also how is Diff'rent Strokes doing good for their ratings? Please Help.

I believe that TNN, Nick@Nite and TV Land are all owned by the sam company Viacom, and the show is under contract with the actual company and not the network. So if TNN were to suddenly take it off it could appear gain on another channel.

Pavabadel may be able to predict if they are going to take it off.

Yes Jethro is correct about N@N/TVL/TNN being part of Viacom. I don't know how long their contract is for DS though.
Good news though, DS is still scheduled for 10-11am and 12-1pm for August and September!

He is wrong...Diff'rent Strokes will NOT be on the September Schedule. Just look at the Diff'rent Strokes Webpage and you'll see. The last episode wil be aired on Aug. 30th on the New TNN.

Yes that post was from the beginning of the month, it WAS scheduled. Now it ISN'T. Check this board out, I have already posted about it leaving.
