NICK'S "Road Crew" - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

pilotguy · 09-11-2003, 07:40 AM

That Friday night "Road Crew" thing that NICK does where a man and woman go to a viewer's home and do household chores (cleaning gutters, vacuuming rugs, washing windows, etc.)....

Do you know WHY NICK offers that service?

Because "WINGS" is on so LATE that everyone is too TIRED to do any work around the house!

(Just wait until the show gets moved to 3:30 AM....NICK will have to send FOUR people out to do those chores!).

Seriously, I wish that NICK would stop with these "cutesie" (and annoying) promotional gimmicks and just put together a decent programming schedule that makes sense!

haha I agree! it seems like to me that they're butt kissing the viewers, like "if you watch, we will come" I don't see them at my house doing windows and vacumming!

I think Nick @ Nite has totally changed. I know that TV Land exists now for the older shows, and I like Wings, so it's not like I don't want that show to be on Nick, BUT...when I was a kid my first adventure of staying up ALL NIGHT was with my sister. We watched Nick @ Nite all night one time. This was back in the early nineties when they had on My Three Sons, Donna Reed, Dennis the Menace, Green Acres, and Mr. Ed et al. It was no bull back then, they just played the freaking shows, lol. TV Land is NOT the same. If they've changed the shows, at least they could still have the decency to just play the shows like that...which is what people would prefer I would think. Of course, they just assume all viewers are the same stereotype, nano-second attention span. Oh well, there's a reason I don't work at the upper levels of a corporation....they're all idiots, who are out of touch with the people, lol.
