Predictions For 2005 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

tvfanfor1980's · 01-06-2004, 09:21 PM

Does anybody know predictions for N@N, TBS, TVLand, and Oxygen in 2005? I know a few shows coming.

SBTB Geek · 01-07-2004, 02:45 AM

I think the following sitcoms have a good chance of coming to N@N around 2005 or 2006:

Home Improvement- this seems like very good N@N material. It's everything that Nick is looking for, plus, it's currently airing on TBS, for a strange reason shows that air there most of the time end up on N@N.

ALF- In 2004 N@N/TV Land will begin to air ALF's new show, "ALF's Hit Talk Show"... I'm sure the demand for "ALF" will rise, and N@N will finally come to it's senses and begin to air the sitcom.

A Different World- They seem to be completely infatuated with Bill Cosby, this was one of his best sitcoms, and it's actually good. I just have a feeling it will end up on N@N.

Cosby-see above

Seinfeld- I don't need an explanation.

Saved By The Bell- N@N is following a trend of airing popular late80s/early90s teen sitcoms (in ex.: "Full House," and "Fresh Prince",) and "Saved By The Bell" fits the category, it's possible that they might air it after it's contract with TBS ends.

Well A Different World is currently on contract by Oxygen. but i'll bet someday it'll be on N@N...

I hope that Oxygen starts airing Kate and Allie again, and i'd love to see Murphy Brown again.

TCS wont move to TVLand.
But it surely wont be leaving N@N.

Probably not by 2005, but I think we'll see a second TVLand channel arise sometime before the end of the decade, but Im not sure when.

I could be wrong -- but I think TBS has exclusive rights to Seinfeld until either 2009 or 2011.

barwars · 05-15-2004, 04:17 PM

Im not going to make a schedule, but I will put shows I think will join the networks.

N@N:
Murphy Brown (not a prediction, its true -- January 05)
Home Improvement
Growing Pains

TVLand:
The Jeffersons
Diff'rent Strokes

Oh please no! Four airings on TVLand also? NO! We have to draw the line somewhere, and having TCS on TVLand, N@N, WGN, TBS, etc. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

What we need is...a Cosby FREE world. LOL!

Well, thanks to Family Ties and Cheers that's where its going to lead to. A Cosby Free World??? You mean a Modern TV Classic FREE network.

She supports your arguement, then YOU oppose it.
Makes PERFECT sense to me.

How did I oppose it?

benjamoon · 05-15-2004, 11:27 PM

I really doubt "The Cosby Show" being on TVL by 2005... but it most likely will be eventually. Plus, I think "Cheers" fits in well because it covers 50s-80s on that channel and "Cheers" is fine

As for "Wings"... I don't think that'll ever go to TVL and if it does it will be for a short time to finish up a N@N contract

What does FT have to do with TCS coming to TVLand? FT only airs twice a day in a late-night slot and you're acting as if it airs four times a day, in the afternoon and primetime. You know, kinda like Leave it to Beaver.

Cheers imo does not belong on TVLand. It airs on NAN, and it should be on NAN only. Why should it air four times a day on TVLand, pushing one shows (The Love Boat) that isn't on any other channel, then air four times a night on NAN. It makes no sense at all.

The only part of your argument I agree with/support is if TCS went to TVLand that would be a downhill move for the network. Seems like you have a personal hatred for FT. It airs late at night and doesn't affect I Love Lucy, so your ongoing argument with FT and Cheers doesn't make sense. No, I didn't mean "Modern" TV Classic Free, I meant Cosby Free that's why I typed Cosby Free not what you typed. It's just your opinion that FT and Cheers are "modern". When is it going to sink in for you that the two shows are TWENTY TWO YEARS OLD. That's not exactly what most would call "recent".
