The Ropers Years on Nick-at-Nite - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I was just looking at an episode schedule for Three's Company at TV-Now.com, and I noticed that when Nick-at-Nite finishs this run, they'll be going to the beginning of season 4 instead of season 1. When was the last time they went through seasons 1 through 3 without skipping a large portion of the episodes? It seems like it's been a long time. Hopefully when they go to the end of season 8 in August they'll finally air seasons 1-3 without skipping a large chunk of episodes.

I think they are saving air plays. A contract only allows episodes for a certain amount of air play per year.

Its kind of like with The Simpsons and Friends where they never show the early episodes for a while in syndication. I just want them to air the early episodes of Three's Company soon because I haven't recorded a lot of them.

I could be wrong, but doesn't sometimes N@N skip episodes of shows, to use them for specials?

Hopefully N@N will air seasons 1-8 without skipping episodes soon, so I can get the whole season on tape in order.

I don't think u should record TC off N@N because they enjoy taking the humor out of every episode.

Well, where else could he tape it since it's not anywhere? All stations take out some humourous things from TV shows. The editing of Three's Company is great compared to some hack job editing I've seen done on other networks, imo.

I think TC fans are better off buying it like I did and they will be much more satisfied with the episodes. N@N once again should only air FULL HOUSE and SISTER SISTER.
