With all the new shows coming to Lifetime, does anybody think we may be losing them?

How long is the show contracted for???

I am really scared

Two things...

1. Review The GG board for posts about this subject. It helps to search for topics that have already been posted than to repost a particular subject. That way, it helps eliminate confusion.

2. Contact www.lifetimetv.com and see if they will give you any insight. I doubt the show ends, but who knows.

3. Welcome to the board!!!

We've been growing everyday, so enjoy it around here!

Even if the contract was up with Lifetime, the show has such a loyal following that a network would be very quick to pick it up. GG has an even bigger syndication following than The Cosby Show which is in syndication on 3 different cable channels and countless local affliates.

I would like it better if another network aired it, so they would air the episodes in production order, and every episode would get played an equal amount of times. Theres some eps I haven't seen in so long I've almost forgotton what happens in them!

There was a long stretch in the mid 90's (where I live) when GG only came on Sat and Sun night at 10:30 p.m. I'm glad it's on as often as it is, but I usually only watch one of the morning episodes. ONE thing I wish they would do is show those 10-15 second endings that they did for a while....usually they showed them when they were rolling credits at the end (many shows did this in the 90's). They were just quick little scenes at the end that were meant to be funny...now they cut them out and I want them back! What would it hurt?

Companies would loose money because the commercial time would be reduced. They'd never do it.
