Nick at Nite - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Remember back in the day when "The Wonder Years" aired on Nick at Nite? I know I do. It had only been off the air for 4 years when NAN added it in 1997. Which is why I say, "If they can air 'Wonder,' they can air 'Doogie Howser!'" Oh, and by the way, "TWY" was not a sitcom!!!! It was a "Family Drama," much like "The Waltons." I have no idea why Tim Brooks and Earle Marsh, the author of "The Complete Directory of Prime Time Cable and Network TV Shows," call "TWY" a "Situation Comedy." Beats me! But I watched "TWY," and it is not a sitcom, but a "Family Drama."

I agree. I have never considered it a sitcom either. I was suprised to see the board under the "90s Sitcoms" list. I figured this show would go under the drama/dramadies list.

N@N was awesome during the time WYs was on it. I just don't want to watch this show on ABC Family. Plus it's on at a time when I cannot usually watch it.
