Board -

Since it is obvious we all are mad at the fact that N@N skips episodes, so lets keep sending lots of emails saying how we feel.

We did it once, how about doing it again?

Writing N@N could be an advantage and a disadvantage. What I mean is, they are giving us the privilege to watch these shows, but if we constantly write N@N they could become sick and tired of all the emails and take that certain show off the air. That is a possibilty!

That's what I was thinking too Angela. They probably will get sick of our e-mails sooner or later, and make threats to take the show off the air. And in case many of you are wondering why they skip the FOL Pilot, they do this to save it for a time when they need a boost in the ratings.

If the MTV group (Nick) wants to continue selling air time for ads according to the number of viewers watching then they had better listen to our (the viewers') opinions. Afterall, it is the viewer who is influenced by ads and purchases the product. By all means we have the right to write to them because we are the consumers and support the programs through our consumptions. I think there is a lot of corporate arrogance at Nick that leads to poor decisions/ ratings. They need to hear us and respond accordingly.

I know. Like on the run of fol right now, they've already skipped 'teenage marraige'
& they're skipping 'graduation'. The only really good 1 they haven't skipped is 'the 4 musketeers'.

Angela and Andrew, you're probably right.

I was thinking that maybe we should write to some other network like Screen Gems Network, or USA (USA used to air FOL like 3 or 4 years ago- so I heard). There are lots of other networks out there that might be willing to show the controversial eps- if only they would air shows like DS & FOL.

If they would take DS off the air, I
wouldn't be surprised if TVLand aired DS.
I was told that TVLand would probably show more controversial episodes. Unfortunately, not all of us have TVLand.
I know I sure don't. I kind of would like to see FOL and DS on USA Network. At least USA Network didn't cut out scenes, like N@N does. At least I don't think the
USA Network cut out scenes.

I'm almost 100% sure that USA cut out scenes, but I might be wrong. I don't think that have thr rights to FOL anymore. It was on USA in 1997. It aired before Gimmie A Break and Perfect Strangers.
