Man September is going to be a bad month, Batman goes on hiatus and Three's company is going back to only airng once a night and late at night I might add, hopefully Batman won't be gone long.

Yeah, I just got online and read Pav's post. Idk, I'm kind of happy and disappointed, too. I'm disappointed because tv just sucks now (almost sucks) and I'm kind of happy it got put on hiatus, maybe when it comes back, it'll get a good timeslot again.......

Well, I, for one, don't mind the show going on hiatus.

For years now I have been forced to choke down rerun after rerun of Batman, whose episodes have had a machete taken to it, resulting in precious minutes from it on the cutting room floor.

Gosh, I would like to see the day when all 120 Bat-episodes are either released in DVD Season Sets (when and if DC Comics/WB allow such a thing) or shown on TV fully intact! In fact, I'm surprised Encore Action Channel didn't chance to grab it up, along with The Green Hornet and The Time Tunnel, neither of which lasted beyond one season! (Come on WB/DC, get with the program and arrange for the Bat-DVD Season Set releases, already!

)

I've heard that M*A*S*H will transfer from F/X to Hallmark on September 1, with a Labor Day marathon featuring all of the series' first season episodes uncut "with content from its original debut on CBS". It sure would be nice to see Batman treated the same way on Hallmark!

I'd love to have it on DVD one day, and yes in the season by season sets, too.
