1) You can't write to postmaster@tvland.com, you have to write to @nick-at-nite.com, because it's technically a N@N show, and the TVland postmaster will just delete it. We had a disscussion about this a few weeks ago,yes? and 2) AHHHH!!! I can't beleive it season 9 is my favorite!!!! Oh well, I've got most of them on tape from last time around.

You know what I think? I think NAN is going back to season 1 of the show so that way time periods will be matched up with Different Strokes. Think about it. March 12th NAN will start Different Strokes from episode 1. By the 26th, NAN will have gotten to the 1979 eps of Different Strokes(from season 2). FOL started during the 2nd year of Different Strokes. NAN is trying to air Diff. Strokes from 1979 along with FOL episodes from 1979.

We will see some crossovers for sure. Like the episode when the first season girls sleeover at Kimberly's house. I like the way NAN set that up. I have a feeling they will air seasons 8 and 9 again. If you also notice, NAN is skipping about 3 eps from the 85-86 season. It it obvious that NAN is trying to air both these shows from the same era(or year or time period)

Woah guys! Calm down! Don't do any lamaze on me!

I come back to the board after a well needed vacation and I see a full blown panic! LOL

First off, listen to ThomasE....he knows what he's talkin' 'bout.....so I don't want any "WHATCHOOTALKINBOUTTHOMAS?", ok? We've seen the last two seasons already, and in a few short months, they'll be back! Hey, if you really HAVE to see them, you can always trade tapes with someone. And it will be so cool to watch the seasons of DS and FOL together! I can't wait until the crossovers! Just think positive....

....the sun'll come out, tommorrow! Bet your bottom dollar that tommorrow, there'll be sun!

Well, since you put it THAT way, I guess it won't be soo bad. But I've been doing so GOOD taping the eps!! I was so proud of myself (LOL) and this will TOTALLY throw me off!!! Plus, seasons eight and nine IMO have some REALLY great episodes on it.
But I GUESS I'll live...... <sigh>
