Roseanne on My UPN - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Nanny Fine · 09-25-2003, 02:00 PM

I was flipping channels just now (before I leave for work!) and The Cosby Show is listed to be on UPN but they are showing Roseanne instead. I'd MUCH rather watch Roseanne than Cosby

but is this a permanent switch, Pavanbadal do you know?

Thanks.

Not all UPN's are the same. So can you tell me where you are located or give me the call letters for the affiliate (example: WWOR)?

The appropriate term is "syndication." Stations around the country are affiliates of UPN, WB, FOX, CBS, NBC, ABC and PAX. Syndication packages are sold to stations and it doesn't matter if a station is UPN or whatever to air syndicated shows. So basically, you can see Roseanne on any type of affiliate.
