Nick at Nite is having an All in the Family tribute marathon to Carrol O'Connor - so I don't think they will be rescheduling Men For All Seasons.

How come I just KNEW something like that was going to happen? That marks the second time when that particular episode was preempted for unprecedented events. I'm incredibly disappointed. This would be the first new episode I've seen in months, and let's just say that All in the Family gets more than its fair share of air time as it is. With even more marathons coming up anyway, there's not so much a need for this. Yes, he did die, but how much of the show are people expected to be able to watch? Let TV Land do a marathon.

It never ends does it? Nick truly hates the show. I also wanted to see this upcoming episode. Couldn't the tribute pre-empt the TV Dinner theme on Sunday? FOL wasn't even included even though 2/3 of the series was related to food. I always expect the worst from Nick and they never let me down.

Ok I've had it up to here with NAN now it's personal I mean I was ok with no more sunday eps but now I haven't seen a new ep since the end of March and now that were getting into the later seasons there are a bunch of eps I would like to tape and men for all seasons was one of them but of course something like this just has to happen. Now they are taking it off for the rest of the summer when I actually have time to watch it and they are putting on shows in the marathon that are going to be on later at night and I mean haven't we had enough of them they have already had 2 eps every single night this past year give them a brake! And I would like to know what is so wrong with the Facts of Life it gets NAN the most viwers and that's how they get money by us watching and there tampering with that!!!!!! Sorry this is so long but I just had to get this off my chest.

I hate N@N SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much for this! I wish they would frickin quit showing FOL all togather and let either TVland, FOX Family, or TNN take it!! I mean its just not fair that they have the right to all of these episodes and only air four and this week just three eps a week then just let it sit on the shelves for two months!!!!

God- I know you love FOL, but Carroll O' Connor just died. Many people loved this man and loved 'All in the Family'. This man deserves a damn fine tribute. He has entertained people much more longer than the cast of FOL has.
So let N @ N do their tribute. On that night just get out your tapes that you've taped and watch the things. I know I will probably get trashed by all you fol fans, but I don't care. If one of the stars of any of your fave. shows passed away, you would want a tribute done. If the network didn't- I imagine you would be mad. |

I can understand the "Facts of Life" fans being somewhat upset(I watched the show religiously in the 80's) that the show will be preeempted on Monday; however, growing up in the 70's/early 80's watching Carroll O Connor as Archie Bunker I can see how this icon deserves to be honored and I appreciate the gesture Nick is making. True TV Land is airing a marathon this weekend but many people do not get the station even five years after it first hit the airwaves.
I agree that the tribute could have been scheduled on Sunday night but the powers that be placed it where they did, so instead of begrudging the man his due, either watch the tribute or change the channel; take heart in the fact that FOL will be back the very next night. |

I don't like the idea of missing this episode, but this is a good reason. Carroll O'Connor deserves the tribute. He changed the face of television and helped take is where it is today. He deserves the tribute more than anyone else!
I look forward to watching AITF this Monday! ks |
