I wish TV Land or Hallmark would get their act together and start showing "My Three Sons" again.

"My Three Sons" is being shown on TV Land... but in Canada only.

Currently they are screening the first series of Black and White episodes. Although TV Land has an affiliation with Paramount and Viacom, this doesn't necessarily mean that it will be picked up again for the U.S. equivalent. However; there is a slight chance and all you can do is wait and hope. My feeling is that even though Viacom is currently only syndicating the color episodes sporadically across the United States, the original B/W catalogue has a moratorium on it and hasn't been seen since 2000. With almost as many episodes in B/W as Color, sooner or later a network or cable station will get the broadcast rights to show it again. With so many fans asking for the show's return, you would think that the powers that be would be proactive in attempting to please fans by giving them what they want, not what they think they want to see.
