Angry lets bombard n@n with emails about this crappy schedule!!!

o.k guys n@n said they would not do anything about anything unless many people complained or that was a question that was asked frequently so lets bombard em with emails about this crappy new schedule because we did this about us wanting to see episodes that they refused to show so n@n did something about it after all the emails we sent but we dont like the solution they came up with so lets try to get a new one!!!
please reply if you like the idea!!!

I e-mailed them at 3pm this afternoon. I also put my idea of the 'perfect' schedule--with Facts of Life remaining back-to-back at 10 and 10:30. They'll show Gilligan's Island 3 times but not the Facts of Life? I don't get it. BIG MISTAKE made by Nick-at-Nite. Well, they'll have a lot more mail--or more like it, complaints in their mailbox tomorrow morning! I'm glad I'm not the Postmaster-lol.

Good luck with your complaints everyone!

The e-mail address is: postmaster@tvland.com

I sent my e-mail a few hours ago. I got one of those 'canned' responses back basically telling me that they answer their e-mails between 10:00 A.M.-6 P.M. Mon-Fri. and to check their schedule for daily programming, etc., etc.

I will keep e-mailing them until I get a decent response. I let them know that many of my friends who currently watch an hour of nick at nite every night will only be watching 1/2 hour nightly with this new schedule. I also referenced sitcomsonline messageboard and told them to check it out if they truly want to know how popular 'FOL' is compared to the other sitcoms.

I see where 3's Company will still have a whole hour blocked out each night. We need to fight for 'FOL'!!!!!!

Just sent mine. Maybe with enough of us they'll come to their senses. But just a suggestion, try to be nice, they'll probably respond more to nice than to threats. Too many threats and we might just get Beverly Hillbillies marathons all night just to spite us. BTW, I go to the mall today and what do I see? Boxed set of Beverly Hillbillies episodes! Isn't that just a kick in the teeth?

I just sent my e-mail to N@N I was calm and pleasant with them..(Well as much as I could be) I Only stated the cold hard "Facts" to them!~Read Below..This is what I wrote them~
To Whome it May Concern,
Why did you change the "Facts Of Life" to only once a night? I watch 1 hour and sometimes stay up until 2:30 and catch the other "Facts Of Life" That's 1 hour and 30 minutes a day..Now I will be only watching Nick-At-Nite..a half hour a day! Right now I like how the schedule is...Back to back Facts Of Life! Everyone I have heard from is complaining about having only one Facts Of Life a night...I think it would be in your best interest to keep " Facts Of Life" back to back every night...Or your ratings will drop for Nick-At-Nite!! If you are changing the schedule so you can play the more "controversial" episodes at 4:30 in the morning! What good is that doing you? Yes,we all want to see the episodes you left out last time which are mostly the more "controversial" episodes that you don't find suitable for the younger veiwers.(which I think it is better to learn the lesson that "Facts Of Life" then the hands on approach!"(you know what I mean?).But who is going to be up at 4:30 in the morning? Maybe (Idea) You could play them at 2:30 and keep the schedule how it is! There is a lot of people very upset about the new schedule(Believe Me!) Well hope you take my message into consideration!

Thanks for your time!
Miranda

I took everyone's advice and sent them e-mails from work and home on two separate computers and from several e-mail addresses.

Let's all keep sending e-mails and demand our hour long block of FOL back on N@N at a decent hour. I think if we overwhelm them with e-mails they might actually listen!!! The masses must be heard!

To Whom It May Concern :

Please play "The Facts of Life" at 9:00-10:00 eastern time, because this way, we can watch a whole hour, back to back, of our favorite show on our favorite station.
Thank you very much !

Sincerely,
A Facts of Life fan
