Nick at Nite is making me mad! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

moviegoer · 08-20-2002, 08:06 PM

I can't believe they're showing family ties at 4:00 and 4:30!

i can't stay up that late! n&n never really gave FT a chance. From the begining they were showing it late. anyone else feel this way?

Crimson and Clover · 08-21-2002, 07:02 PM

i agree i like to watch FT and threes company but i cant stay up late because i have school so if i stayed up and watch it i would only get like 2 hours of sleep.

Warm & Fuzzy · 08-22-2002, 02:44 AM

Ditto-wise... 4.00AM and 4.30AM are ridiculous time slots. It's around this time that people are in bed.

Montana Ponine · 08-22-2002, 08:12 PM

I hate Nick at Nite. Family Ties and Three's Company are the best shows on that channel and they both have ridiculous time slots!!! They might as well just take them of the air!!!! It's just not fair, especially considering how often they show the Cosby Show and Cheers. Terrible....They need to treat ALL their shows with respect!!!!!!!!

ClassicTV4Ever · 08-23-2002, 04:39 PM

I'm with the rest of you! N@N is so ridiculous. The schedule has no variety at all. And I CANNOT believe that they're sticking "Charles In Charge" at 5 and 5:30! What I wish they would do is get rid of the double takes, that way more shows can be fit in and leave the late night/early morning timeslots for the repeats. I can't stay up until 4 and 5 in the morning just to watch Family Ties and Charles In Charge.

FamTiesFan · 08-23-2002, 08:28 PM

Hello
I's just like to say that I agree with all of you who love Family Ties they show it way way too late. I am just starting to record them and everytime I hear they are going to move it up to another time it just turns me off to want to recored them and another thing that turns me off is I thought they had a contract for Family Ties? That N@N is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Ridiculas I wish they would take it off and put it on TVLAND.

yeah we should make a petition for family ties to have a better time slot!

MJFfan · 08-27-2002, 10:56 PM

Yeah, I know! I have to be

by then!
That's a great

about the petition!

Nobody sees enough "Family Ties" on Nick at Nite. I mean, I like "the Cosby Show" as much as the next person, but at least they should have put "Family Ties" at a more decent hour. I mean, who the hell suggested that they put "Kids Say the Darndest Things" on Nick at Nite at 9Pm? It comes on enough as it is on TNN. What a waste of space. They should have had "Family Ties' placed there instead of all that stupid stuff they show, Except for maybe "Three's Company, "The Cosby Show" and "All in the Family". But all that other stuff, they can have. If they really want classic TV, they should put stuff like "Good Times", "Maude", "Family Affair", or the completed versions of "Bewitched" instead of the butchered ones they show on Hallmark Channel. So "Family Ties" is not the only show that needs some respect.

Meg · 09-03-2002, 07:54 PM

hey everyone! i thought of a great idea for a nick at nite schedule and i'd like y'all to check it out and repy in support of it so we can get it on NAN! to look at it go here www.tvland.com/boards then go look under Nick at nite then click on show suggestions then go to page 2 and click on Great Idea Here! posted by Meg2002 and please reply if u like it i wanna see what people think of it! ok well i'll post the sample schedule i created here if u dont feel like going there, here it is:

ok well i just had a brilliant idea (people post here if you like it!) ok here it is:
have an alternating schedule like for example:

Sunday:
9-10 all in the family
10-11 family ties
11-12 cheers
12-1 cosby
1-2 3s company
2-3 charles in charge
3-4 coach
4-5 all in the family
5-6 family ties

Monday:
9-10 family ties
10-11 cheers
11-12 cosby
12-1 3s company
1-2 charles in charge
2-3 coach
3-4 all in the family
4-5 family ties
5-6 cheers

Tuesday:
9-10 cheers
10-11 cosby
11-12 3's company
12-1 charles in charge
1-2 coach
2-3 all in the family
3-4 family ties
4-5 cheers
5-6 cosby

Wednesday:
9-10 cosby
10-11 3's company
11-12 charles in charge
12-1 coach
1-2 all in the family
2-3 family ties

12-1 all in the family
1-2 family ties
2-3 cheers
3-4 cosby
4-5 3s company
5-6 charles in charge

Saturday:

11-12 all in the family
12-1 family ties
1-2 cheers
2-3 cosby
3-4 3s company
4-5 charles in charge
5-6 coach

as you can see all the shows get a chance in each of the timeslots so its perfectly fair for all the shows and everyones favorite show is in a good timeslot. and the shows kinda relvove around the diffrent slots so its fair for everyone. so what do u guys think??????

MBFTfan · 09-07-2002, 10:32 PM

I agree too. Nick at Nite shows way too much of the Cosby Show. Not that its a bad show, but I mean, come on! With this summer marathon schedule its on like 3 or 4 nights a week, for a 3 hour block. That's ridiculous, no show should get that much time on the air. Family Ties didn't even get a marathon block. Its only on for an hour from 4-5. Who's up at that hour? They never gave the show a chance, they need to put it back on in prime time. I'm all for petitioning Nick at Nite to return it to normal hours. Either that or a permanent time slot on TVLand. Either way, its one of the best sitcoms they have and their not giving it any time and something needs to be done about it. While we're at it, lets put Bewitched back in the lineup too!

Faith · 09-08-2002, 06:19 AM

You all need to get Direct TV.. You would get 2 Nickeloden channels so you could watch it 3 hours earlier..

Crimson · 09-09-2002, 01:38 PM

I too am left bitter that I would have to wait up soo late just to see Family Ties. I'm just happy that they aren't doing the same thing with Cheers. And they put Threes Company ahead of Family Ties! Whats up with that mess?

Sammy M. Malone · 09-10-2002, 09:05 PM

i liked the old schedule before camp! it was like

9-10:Cosby show
10-11:Cheers
11-12:all in the family
12-1:cosby show
1-2:cheers
2-3: family ties

2 isnt as late as 4!
i dont mind the cosby show but i dont see why they had to bring in kids say the darndest things!

MBFTfan · 09-15-2002, 02:57 AM

Have you seen the N@N website? The whole thing is devoted to The Cosby Show. They have cast bios and pictures, episode lists, even screensavers! They have literally nothing for Family Ties, or any of their other shows for that matter. This is getting out of hand, I mean its one thing to promote a show, but this goes beyond promotion. It makes me so angry, the other shows deserve some attention too, especially Family Ties. Someone on this board suggested that they were getting paid off to do all this and I was reluctant to agree, but I think (and I could be wrong) that there have been some big shifts in the N@N hierarchy and I'm starting to think that person was right. I don't know why else this would be happening. What is going on???!!
