I disaggree. FOL had it's time in the spotlight last year. TC and DS both have had less marathons (TC- 2, DS- 4, FOL-5, Counting the Unrealathon). But the others shouldn't be on there. Repalce them with FOL, L&S, and Party Crasher Sundays, Since there is no Friday

I agree with this, it's frustrating.
However, we ought to be grateful also, since they show it at all. I know I am, because I wouldn't know about the the show if they hadn't started showing it.

Well, I think Nick @ Nite is signing itself up for WAY too many shows. It's nice that they are showing I Love Lucy again,but N@N has made some poor decisions. They show Three's Company all the time, which really bugs me. I hate that show. I think the Facts of Life will have an ok timeslot in the fall. It won't get moved like the Wonder Years, one of the best shows ever. I wish FOL would still be on USA, like I used to watch when I was younger. I did enjoy the marathon N@N did this spring when they showed all the different shows. I heard N@N will have a perfect strangers marathon on July `4th. They won't forget the FOL. it'll be on the party crashers sundays. I thinki that N@N should send some more shows over to TNN. yess they have the annoying thing on the botttom, but I'd rather see that then not see the show at all. I think N@N is devoted to FOL. If N@N starts at 9pm again, FOL will porobably be on once a night at 11pm. Cheers and Family Ties woill be on from 9-11. Also, if the Cosby Show moives to N@N, then some shows won't be shown anymore. Although, there always is TNN.

Nick@Nite is frustrating me. They've cut down the FOL timelot way too much and given all the time to Three's Company. I'm sick of seeing 3's Comany on moretn the FOL since it has way more substance. However I am greatful that they show FOL at all otherwise I would never have seen it. Now they're torturing me for the summer, but at least the Division is on so I can still watch Nancy!

You better believe I hate them! Well, "hate" is such a strong word. Maybe I just dislike them. I used to love them. I saw nothing wrong with it all. How could I have been so dence!?

I suppose they used be a great network. But now they crossed the line! If they didn't like FOL why did they show it in the first place? Then I wouldn't have found Jo and be going CRAZY over her now!

To answer your question more clearly, Nick at Nite is not one of my first tv choice.

FOL is easily just as popular as Three's Company or Diff'rent Strokes. Those are the three powerhouses on N@N. I don't see why FOL cannot be included. It's very unfair and I know of many viewers who watch N@N JUST for FOL and nothing else.

If there are enough people like that (and I'm sure that their are), hopefully N@N will realize the amount of viewers that they're losing and will make some changes.

Yes, I hate them!

That's a problem though. There are 221 million Americans. About 97-99% have cable. It would take a large number. THe least proboly would be in the six digets.

Three's Company is not a powerhouse. The real quality shows on the network aren't being shown. It's not just FOL. They pushed Wonder Years to TNN! They have shows like Silver Spoons that don't getmshown. They got the rights to so many new shows the past 4 years it's scary. i'm taping all of the epsidoess of Cheers once they come on. if I don't it will be too late.

You'd be surprised that although I gripe a lot that there is no excuse for N@N excluding FOL this summer, and I do truly dislike N@N right now, I am not just thinking of myself (really). I personally need some time off from FOL, even though I love the show. But it's the principal of the whole thing: It's just not fair to FOL fans! I have never seen Nick do this with a show that is popular and hasn't been airing on their network very long.
