I thought "Green Acres" on TVLand would be cool.
But its NOTHING compared to having it on DVD.



TVLand Moguls is looking VERY cool.
Ill definately be taping that.

[Pavan]

Just a little note, Carol Burnett Week, April 12-16, has been removed. TV Land Moguls theme programming from 10pm-1am will be coming soon, we already know the Moguls episodes from 9-10pm of course.

[Pavan]

TV Land Moguls Block Programming is going to be very interesting. I can't release the shows yet, but everyone will be pleased, they will be using some shows not on the TV Land schedule.

The Lucy Show? Make Room for Daddy? Dragnet? Awesome.

And, Star Trek!!!!

On a side note, I think that Star Trek should join either TV Land or Spike TV, considering Sci Fi's POOR treatment of it.

By the way, are these hints at future acquistions or one-shots?

These are just acquired for these specials ONLY.

I figured that was so. Doesn't hurt to hope though.

[JT]

This is great! "The Lucy Show" and "Make Room for Daddy"! I haven't seen MRFD in a loooong time and I've never seen a B/W episode of TLS ever.

I suspect the TBA Shwartz sitcom will be "The Brady Bunch" and the TBA Martin drama will be "The FBI."

"TVLand Moguls" is going to really rock.

Pß, do you think any 80s primetime soaps will be airing? I know you aren't supposed to release any of the other skeds yet, but you know I will just DIE if they aired "Dynasty" or "Dallas" or maybe even "Knots Landing." I will just DIE.

I don't think so, because I don't think the exec. producers for those shows are mentioned.

Stephen J. Cannell, Stephen Bochco, Witt-Thomas-Harris, and Marcy Carsey and Tom Werner are featured in the 80's program. Two hours only of block programming are available for the '80s -- so maybe one drama and two sitcoms I'd say.

However, 70's Part II has all those shows you mentioned featured in the documentary, so maybe one of the shows you mentioned will pop-up there, since that block will be 10pm-2:30am

[JT]

Well, they could possibly be aired in one of the 70s blocks; DYN was Aaron Spelling and DALLAS and KL were both Lee Rich/Lorimar shows.

ETA: Sorry, didn't see that last part in your post about the 70s II block.

Yeah, but I think they'll probably air Charlie's Angels or Love Boat for Aaron Spelling and maybe The Waltons for Lorimar, we'll see though... I'll try and post it as early as I can.

Pav,
This indicates that Family Ties will be on tomorrow, but will FT air tomorrow, April 1st? TV Land doesn't have it listed on their schedule. The next ep. that shows to air is on 4/2.

YES! Of all the episodes of MRFD that I know about, this would be the one I want to see!
