WOO-HOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait

Adamantium · 02-07-2003, 07:30 PM

I always knew that "Wings" should come to Nick at Nite. I am going to start watching Nick at Nite again. I haven't watched it religiously since "Gilligan's Island" and "Beverly Hillbillies" came.

Sitcomwriter · 02-08-2003, 07:33 PM

Yes! "Wings"! As Kristin said....

Whoo Hoo!

Ugh, that sounds like kind of a half-assed marathon. It's only for four nights, and for only three hours each night to boot. Nick's not exactly rolling out the Cheers or Cosby-sized red carpet for this show, is it? I wouldn't be surprised if Wings winds up buried in an overnight slot within a couple of months, maybe even sooner.

SBTB Geek · 02-09-2003, 05:25 PM

I'm afraid that I will end up hating "Wings" in a couple of months. Nick @ Nite always finds a way of ruining some of my favorite sitcoms (i.e., "The Cosby Show.")

That's the reason I don't want "Fresh Prince of Bel Air" and "Roseanne" to come to Nick @ Nite.

Chocoholic · 02-09-2003, 05:31 PM

I don't think I'll end up hating Wings. I don't hate Cheers or The Simpsons. I can watch all 3 shows over and over again and still laugh out loud each time.

I hope They air Wings after Cheers. That would be fun

laceyinthesky · 02-11-2003, 03:45 PM

Wow I haven't watched Wings in years.

Chocoholic · 02-19-2003, 02:55 PM

Yo, Pav! Do you have any idea of what the regular timeslot for Wings will be? Please tell me it's a decent one

Sitcomwriter · 02-19-2003, 06:59 PM

I love "Wings" and guess what? I haven't seen most of those episodes since I've only seen the last 2 or 3 seasons so yay for me!

Brett Ferino · 02-25-2003, 02:33 PM

Sorry about your correction but it's less than a month. It starts Modnay, March 31, 2003. Hey, PB do you know if the normal sked has been released yet after the Wings marathon?

A minor change to Nick@Nite starting Monday March 17, more Three's Company will replace Coach at 11 and 11:30 p.m. from Sundays to Thursdays for at least the week of March 17th and 24th; the week of the 31st is a Wings marathon. Everything else is the same as now starting March 17.
I suspect Wings to take over that 11 and 11:30 slot when it joins the line-up on April 6, that schedule is still in the works. Maybe Coach will return somewhere in the line-up then.

This will still happen, but Three's Company will ALSO air Friday and Saturday nights at 11 and 11:30 p.m. It will only be from March 17 to March 30, as Wings will take over that time slot on Sun-Thurs and Cheers from Friday and Saturday nights in April.

Pavan · 03-14-2003, 11:04 AM

First post updated, with a few changes for the March 17 schedule:

9 and 9:30 p.m. is now Kids Say the Darndest Things (Sun-Thurs)
10 and 10:30 p.m. is now The Cosby Show (Every night)

Chocoholic · 03-14-2003, 02:32 PM

I can't believe they replaced the 10 o'clock hour of Cheers with The Cosby Show

Cheers is far superior to TCS and Kids Say the Darndest Things.
