Does anyone know why it was taken off tv land and if any other channel will be showing it. It sucks I was taping them and was hoping they were going to show the whole season. Any info would be awesome! Thanks and peace out! Tammy Tam

TV Land has only limited rights to some of its newest acquisitions and "Square Pegs" was one of them. Other than TV Land, the last time I saw the show was on Nick at Nite back in March of 2000. I highly doubt another network will pick it up, but never say never. Who knows, maybe one day it might even come to DVD

"Square Pegs" recently aired on VH1 Tuesday night, as part of a special "TV Land All-Star Jams" for this week, It was also recently took of the TV Land KitSchen and has been replaced for this week, which they change to often *sighs* Hopefully N@N will get the idea and pick it up.

You would think with all the attention Sarah Jessica Paker has been getting in the media lately, they would try cash in on her popularity; not to mention the massive wave of 80's nostalgia shows (Do Over, Now And Then, That 80's Show) you would think some classic TV channel would put it back into rotation.

What is "Shazam" and why has it replaced the wonderful "Square Pegs"?

I agree with tammy_tam1970 regarding TvLand showing the entire season.

There was only a few episodes left, why not finish the entire run?

On a sidenote, has anyone seen the new Jami Gertz sitcom on CBS?

She has remained very beautiful.
