Exclamation New Schedule

Here's the new schedule--I think. I got my TV Guide today and this is what it said.

8:30 Brady Bunch
9 Gilligan's Island
9:30 Beverly Hillbillies
10 Facts of Life
10:30 Facts of Life
11 Three's Company
11:30 Three's Company
MID All in the Family
12:30a Jeffersons
1a I Love Lucy
1:30a Laverne and Shirley
2a Beverly Hillbillies
2:30a Gilligan's Island
3a Three's Company
3:30a Taxi
4a All in the Family
4:30a Jeffersons
5a I Love Lucy
5:30a Gilligan's Island

At least the Facts of Life are back(I hope) but now the Wonder Years is gone. I think Newhart and The Wonder Years(that would be every show on Nick-at-Nite) should play once during the night. Personally, I don't want to see 3 episodes of Gilligan's Island. Well, at least we got the Facts back for now. Keep your fingers crossed.

Hm.

Interesting.

they may actually be keeping FOL at 10.

The replay at 2 AM is gone, though. That's basically the schedule they have now, till the middle of the night.

Hey, Madness, is that schedule for Mon-Fri?

I still want my 2:00 replay for those late night FOL fixes. Should we start another e-mail campaign?

Yay! FOL stays! But, I guess that they're getting rid of the late night (2 or 2:30, I can't remember, it was on automatic timer) FOL repeat showings.....

That's Mon-Thurs. On Friday, just eliminate the Brady Bunch at 8:30, Gilligan's Island at 9 and Beverly Hillbillies at 9:30. Everything from 10 on is the same.

Hope that helped!

Yikes,THREE showings of Gilligan??
I went to TVGuide.com-and they haven't updated N@N's shcedule from Jan.2 on..

I also feel from 1am on that all N@N shows should be shown once.

r u POSITIVE FOL will be on from 10 to 11? Cuz everytime i try to check N@N's schedule, they have just the one episode listed. and if it is back on from 10 to 11, when does that start?

Suppposedly, the 10-11 timselot would never change. That's if you're going by TV Guide.

If you're following Nick at NIte's schedule, FoL goes to 9:30 showings starting January 1.

We'll find out What's what on new Year's Day, I suppose.

I just put whatever was in the most recent TV Guide. I haven't been able to access the Nick-at-Nite schedule so I figured the TV Guide one was a pretty good one to go by. I don't know--but it sure will be interesting Jan. 1!

Just a little comment on the Nick at Nite scheduling problem. I wanted to tape the 12 Merry Christmas sitcoms they had, and I went to the website to find out which ones would be on. I checked the schedule on 12/24, and it listed today's date as 12/17. I guess they all went on Christmas break, and forgot to leave someone to do the work.

Bummer of bummers... we don't have to wait till the first.

N@N just made it official with their new commercial... Facts will be aired at 9:30 only.

The war is lost.

...I love being overly dramatic.

Oh Obsolete, don't be so negative. The war isn't lost YET. Like John Paul Jones when asked if he was ready to surrender by the captain of the Serapis (John was on the Bon Homme Richard), he said "I have not yet begun to fight." And he kept fighting. And he won. And then his ship sank... okay, bad example. (Sorry I'm turnin' this into a history lesson, I can't help it. I'm studying for my American History midterm!) Anyway, keep sending emails. Point out that it's stupid to have it on once a night since there are so many episodes. It'll take 190 days (considering the fact that they skip about every other episode) to go through the run.. I think all this is my fault. Everytime I love a show, something bad happens. I liked Happy Days, N@N took it from 10 to 3... I liked L&S, and it's been in every time slot after midnight, but only in one before midnight. I like FOL, they f*ck up it's schedule and if I miss an episode it'll take twice as long until I get to see it again.

What we need to send them also is a MASSIVE petition. Get em to know that we're tired of their monopoly. They basically own the TV corner of the nostalgia market(N@N and TVLand). They're f**king with the people who made them(viewers). They change their schedule every couple of months? Why? To get new shows,make a big PR fuss,then quietly dump the show.

Viacom owns them,Nickelodeon,MTV,TVLand,VH1,ect..
Lets' show them we're tired of it! This deff. going in my book about FoL(see my profile..)

I agree. They've ruined Wonder Years, Laverne and Shirley, Newhart and other shows just to fit in more Beverly Hillbillies or Gilligan's Island. Like I said earlier, Nick-at-Nite should listen to everyone and show EVERY show AT LEAST once during the night--but run each show before the repeats start. It's not fair to the people that enjoy the other shows like I mentioned(Laverne and Shirley, Newhart...)--and now they're going to do it with the Facts of Life! It's really not fair they don't listen to the viewers--the people who MADE them! It's a total disgrace and a slap in ALL of our faces.
