Torture, pure torture - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

So... this is day/night one of pure torture: Cheers withdrawl for all of us! The only way to survive is to use our tapes and/or DVDs. And if you don't have any of that, then you have to suffer more than anyone else.

HOW WILL WE SURVIVE?!?

Good luck, all.

How's this for torture. watching 18 episodes in a row for five nights straight of Roseanne.

I think that is how they get the Taliban to confess.

Dannie IsNotHere · 09-21-2003, 10:36 PM

Okay, I, for one, cannot STAND Roseanne. My parents hate it, too and I guess I inherited their qualities. Plus there's a lot of people I know who hate it, too. So if everyone else feels this way, then N@N is gonna lose a lot of viewers. So now, the only thing I'll be watching it for is... nothing. I'll just have to set my VCR for the Cheers episodes. I hate this.

How long has Cheers been on the air anyway? According to N@N, "All of the shows on TV Land are acquired programs. These programs are owned by various distributors who license them to us for a limited amount of time. Once a show's license expires, TV Land is no longer permitted to air the program. Sadly, license expiration is the case recently with The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Barney Miller, and Charlie's Angels. Of course, if it were as easy as "just renew the contracts" we most likely would. However that is not always possible." (I know it says TV land, but I'm sure it's the same for N@N). So, let's all pray that the Cheers liscense is still "fresh".

Now your talking!!

I watched it.....the whole marathon....I like that show.(runs and hides)

barwars · 09-22-2003, 04:52 PM

It was funny, but the Emmys were on last night, so I skipped out.

Even though I want Cheers back, N@N isnt putting any shows I HATE within the next few years, this works....

HAHA.
Local Channels ROCK.

I want my local channels to play Cheers!!!! The WB used to air it but they don't anymore.

barwars · 09-22-2003, 05:00 PM

haha

My local UPN airs it, and beginning today, Roseanne as well.

MaydayMalonesGirl · 09-22-2003, 05:04 PM

Why does everyone laugh at my expense?

Dannie IsNotHere · 09-22-2003, 05:14 PM

I couldn't help but watch it this morning. I get up at 5:00 am, and looked to see if the show I usually watch in the morning was on, and SHE was there!!! Save me from the torture!!!
*Nervous breakdown. Brother come in and turns on Cheers tape*
All better. But it's not the same... I like the Diane years, since I don't even have tapes with her. (I only record The Rebecca Years)

barwars · 09-22-2003, 05:15 PM

My bad, its just that....
well, i get to see "I Do, Adieu" in the next couple of days and well.....
