Cheers replaced Life With Bonnie in the primetime lineup! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I was reading the tv guide and I noticed that last night, cheers was on channel 8(New Haven) right after 8 Simple rules. Ever other ABC station has life with Bonnie after 8 Simple rules. Strange. Now if onl I had channel 8.

lol me 2....but wait why would an ABC affiliate have Cheers? I mean it's NBC

Life with Bonnie comes on channel 8 at 1:05 in the morning. I'm guessing the ratings for that show are so poor at the 8:30 time slot on that channel so the replace Bonnie with Cheers. I cannot blame them, I saw an episode of Life with bonnie and it should be called Death with bonnie.

I noticed you were talking about channel 8 New Haven. I live pretty close to Hartford, and for the last, I'll say 4 months or so, it seems that every other week at least Cheers airs on ABC. It has confused me terribly, and its so strange to see ABC endorse Cheers when it was after all an NBC show. But I can't complain, because its like a Cheers bonus for we CT folk!

syndication...

they probably aired it a long time ago as that, and are using it as filler instead of bonnie now.

my abc station is the only station in my area (besides N@N) to air Cheers, and even they dont do that anymore
