I would assume antenna tv is doing good? Even without Burns and Allen & Jack Benny & Mchale’s Navy & Bachelor Father & Father Knows Best & Dennis the Menace & My Favorite Martian. Any hope to see them Return to antenna tv or New to Catchy Comedy?

I had expected the old morning lineup to have returned by now--obviously, that didn't happen. I'm doing my best to not watch Antenna TV in the morning, other than Hazel.

I'm probably watching a little less Antenna than I used to. I was watching McHale in the mornings recently, and Barney Miller pretty steadily at 9 pm. Still watching Barney, but haven't replaced McHale with anything.

I also noticed when Lauren Chaplin passed away AKA (Kathy) Father Knows Best no onair Memorial or any mention on the antenna tv website or Facebook.

Yes but it (Antenna TV) may survive without any of the old B&W shows On the schedule. Unless Catchy Comedy can create an exclusive B&W Block just in like how TV Land, MeTV, BUZZR & Game Show Network all have once did respectively at the time.
