A marAthon is nice but not 2 days of bewitched. I can 't take it.

Chad22 · 05-31-2003, 09:01 PM

True, It Is A Bit Long. Im still enjoying it though.

Im Looking forward to The I Dream Of Jeannie one next week too.

I'm not that bothered, the only thing I do watch during the weekend is "TV Land Kitschen" and "Better Living Through Television", which does interfere because of the Bewitched Marathon, but the episodes that should've aired for this weekend will probably be scheduled for next weekend, so it won't be that bad.

I have been watching the Bewitched Marathon, however I'm haven't been watching it continuesly, because I've been watching it on Hallmark, but I've been watching it now on and then on TV Land and I have been enjoying it, especially the B&W episodes Hallmark hasn't really gave a chance to air.

I don't mind at all; in fact I'm enjoying it. I mean Sanford and Son got it's marathon in January, and Bewitched should get one too. I'm especially enjoying the B&W episodes...it's been so long since I've seen them uncolorized.

treky · 05-31-2003, 09:28 PM

dude, chill out! It's just one weekend.

DarleneIllyria · 05-31-2003, 09:39 PM

I forgot all about the marathon, actually. I flipped the channel and saw Bewitched. Nothing else on, so I watched a couple of eps.

I really have to give credit to the ones that can actually sit through a 48 hour marathon. Geez, I just wouldn't be able to watch one show for that long. I don't care if it's Twilight Zone, Buffy, I don't care. It would just be impossible for me to sit and watch it for 48 hours straight. Oh yeah, I can record for 48 hours straight, but just won't watch it all the way through.

It doesn't bother me that much because I've seen most of the episodes of TVL's shows many times.

I guess i had gotten so used to watching Welcome Back Kotter on Saturdays nights and realized that i wouldn't be able to see it tonight. Just when WBK was starting to appeal to me here comes a marathon-LOL

dawsongirl · 06-01-2003, 12:03 AM

I forget to watch the Kitschen anyway, so it doesn't bother me at all.

The longest marathon I sat through was a total of about 28 of the 48 hrs. of Adam-12. I watched 14 hrs a day. I NEVER got tired of it.

I didn't even do that with the Hogan's Heroes marathon.

No, I'm not bothered by it at all (and it's better than the shows you mentioned). Get over it!

One weekend isn't much of a sacrifice for you to make. You'll have to make the sacrifice again next weekend for the I Dream of Jeannie marathon.

I totally agree. I don't know why he is making a big deal over this. He definitely needs to get over it.

Anyways . . . I applaud TV Land for dedicating a weekend to both
Bewitched and I Dream Of Jeannie. It has been so long since we had those fandemonium marathons and it is great, in sense, to see them back (for very short period). Now, if only TV Land could bring back the fandemoniums back permanently.

Ugh, no way. I got so tired of the Fandemoniums. Occasional 48-hour marathons to launch a show is okay, but having it each week grew very, very, very tiresome. If you didn't like the show, then that was it, no TV Land for the entire weekend. And it seemed like it was the same shows getting those marathons all the time.

I just wish they would add more variety to their weekend lineups again. How about the return of TV Land Goes West on Saturday afternoons? Or The Wonders of TV Land on Sunday mornings (they showed some rarely seen shows, like "Day by Day" and "Ferris Bueller")? And let's see the monthly The Museum of Television and Radio Showcase again, I loved those great old rarities that would turn up. Bottom line: let's see some variety on the weekends, but no more fandemoniums!
