Charles In Charge Marathon! This November! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TVJunkie101 · 09-17-2002, 11:30 AM

Yep. You all heard me correctly. Nick at Nite is presenting a "Charles in Charge" WEEK-LONG marathon from 9-11pm every night (I see Coach didn't get a week long marathon, which is surprising; they had a weekend marathon, of sorts), and also look for a CIC section on the Nick at Nite website. So, this is good and surprising news. As far as I know though, CIC will continue to air at 5:00am and 5:30am 7 days a week in November. Check out the link for a much better description, LOL. Oh, and this morning, CIC started at number one (Well, the second season premiere, skipping the Pembrooke season again).

Yeah I saw that too. I'm guessing Nick at Night only bought a limited number of episodes for a cheaper rate. Possibly everything but seasons 1 and 5? (They just started back to season 2 today without going through season 5). Anyway, I hope that for the marathon they shows some of season 1 and 5 since I need to get those for my tape collection.

Did I ever mention I met Willy Aames in an elevator in Nashville?

TVJunkie101 · 09-17-2002, 04:58 PM

Yeah, I thought it was strange they skipped Season 5. I need both of those seasons too for my collection. That's cool that you met Willy Aames.

Pavan · 09-17-2002, 05:24 PM

They bought every episode , even the first season. I think they will show season 5 later, but not sure about season 1.

N@N is finally giving CIC the respect and recognition that it deserves.

jericho · 09-17-2002, 11:29 PM

Pavanbadal I'm not doubting you, I'm just wondering where you got this info from (if you are at liberty to tell us).

charlesinchargerocks · 09-18-2002, 01:42 AM

That's cool that N@N will have a week long marathon. I'll be taping those, too.

There was a season 5? I thought the show was on for only 4 seasons (not counting the syndication year between the 1st and 2nd years).

jericho · 09-18-2002, 11:10 AM

If there WAS a syndication year between the 1st and 2nd years then that would make 5 seasons.

Actually what happened was Charles in Charge was on CBS for the 1st season, then the show came back in first run syndication a year later for 4 more seasons. It was the first network show to come back in first run syndication after being cancelled.

charlesinchargerocks · 09-18-2002, 11:14 PM

Thanks, Jericho. I guess I just didn't know what I was talking about...what's new. That makes sense - that's why there's 5 years.

Freakzilla · 09-20-2002, 01:23 PM

The way it works out for figuring the number of seasons for CiC is like this:

The CBS/Pembroke season (1984-85)
The first syndication/Powell season, which started in early 1987.
After that, 3 more seasons (1987-90).

Whoever posted this (just like Harper49) is wrong. There is no CIC marathon. It's your dream schedule!

Well I'm a little dissapointed. There are a few episodes that I haven't seen nick at night play yet, on Wednesday and Thursday. (although they could have been played before I tuned in early September) But the vast majority are episodes they have played at least 2 times in the last month already. Also none of the Penbroke episodes will be featured. Oh well, better than nothing I guess.
