Post Season 3 of FOL will be skipped it looks like...

Starting January 22nd, for some reason Nick at Nite is going all the way to Episode 61! The night before that (Sunday the 21st at 1:30AM E/P) they will show Episode 39. So I guess the entire 3rd Season will be skipped!

Aw man, I was dying to see that season!
Does anyone know Columbia House's e-mail address. As soon as I find it I'm gonna ask them to put the series on tape.

Actually on the 23rd they are showing Episode #41. So maybe they are not skipping Season #3.

i remember during the marathon (the 2nd time they played it) they skipped from like the 4th season to the 6th one (or something) for one episode, then back again. i don't know why, but i doubt they're gonnna skip all of the 3rd season. and "green eyed monster" (from the 3rd season) is on the day after the 61st episode, so they probably put that later episode as a break, or by mistake or something. we have to keep in mind that it's N@N...they're not known for their great scheduling techniques. lol.

There also might be some special N@N special running where their showing episodes of shows all of the same theme that night which is why they might be skipping to that episode and then going back to season 3.

They're only skipping episode 40, which is the episode where Blair discovers her grandfather was a member of the KKK.

The second run of FOL includes even less controversial episodes than the first, if that is at all possible. Shoplifting, Greowing Pains, and now this. They're destroying the Facts of Life.

Bastards.

i don't think so cause season 3 was critical. besides they're done with season 2 by the end of this week. plus n-a-n has not posted any offical schedule. other sources can be wrong from time to time.

*goes hysterical* NO! NO NO NO NO NO! THEY CAN'T SKIP THE KKK EPISODE!!!! ARGH!!!!!! I missed it last time and I was DYING to see it this time (It's "Legacy" right?) MY GOD, they showed the episode of All in the Family where Archie almosts becomes a member of the KKK. And Archie's one of the most beloved characters on television. So, it's okay for Archie, but not for Blair's grandfather? And I guess it's okay if they show Edith getting over a near-rape but NO, NOT NATALIE!! And OF COURSE Mr. Roper can grow a marijuana plant but Eastland girls or bottle-cappers do dope? NEVER! And teenagers all over the world can commit suicide but N@N can't play episodes that will help them! Gee, N@N sure is FAIR!

Note the sarcasm.
