How many season 2 episodes? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Sean12 · 11-29-2003, 07:13 PM

I was just wondering if anyone had an idea how many season 2 episodes 8 Simple Rules is going to have. Are they only going to have like 22 since it went on hiatus for a few weeks? By the time they air the Christmas episode on Dec 16 it will be their 9th episode of the season, but by Dec 17 last season, they were already at episode 13. So my question is that are they only gonna have like 22 or 24 episodes this season or are they gonna like go on a marathon after Christmas and show it like every week and have 28 like last season? If they don't have a full 28 episode season, then will it be because ABC isn't as confident in the show as last season or is it because of the 3 week hiatus?

I don't know the answer to this question, but I will say that most shows only have 22 episodes per season. 8 Simple Rules was the only one of the shows I watched last season that had 26. So if 8SR only had 22, then it would be pretty standard. Still, I have no idea what ABC has planned, I'd like to know myself!

Actually, I thought it was 30 which is amazing! Most shows stopped doing that many a season in the 70s!
