TV Show Reruns

[PeppyGPhiB]

Which cancelled TV shows do you find yourself watching in re-runs?

It's 1:00am here, and I'm watching the first season of Dawson's Creek (on Noggin of all channels), which I originally watched as a college sophomore. I can't believe I'm watching MRS. TOM CRUISE on my screen. Gawd.

The Brady Bunch on TVLand. Shut up, don't laugh.

Daria on the N! Old School Degrassi on the weekends.

The usual Nick at Nite staples -- Roseanne, Fresh Prince, Designing Women, but most especially THE COSBY SHOW.

Once in a while I'll catch episodes of Growing Pains on PAX (the Christian channel).

They used to have Family Ties on the Hallmark Channel, but I haven't seen it there recently.

I still love the Brady Bunch. Every time I think I've seen all the episodes, I'll catch a new one.

I also watch Growing Pains, Golden Girls, Roseanne, old school Family Feud and Love Connection when I see them on. I love GSN and TVLand! I do wish Family Ties would come back...that was a good, good show.

Golden Girls
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
I Love Lucy

Fresh Prince was never cancelled. It just ended because of Will Smith's film career. I am just saying. I am in a nit picky mood.

Well excuuuuuuuse me!

Perhaps PeppyGPhiB should edit her post to accurately describe the TV shows that are no longer in production -- you know, to make the nit pickers happy?

Oh brother. I guess I should have known better than to mess with you. I was joking around, hence the smiley face. I just felt like saying what was on my mind. I guess I overstepped my boundaries. I will know better next time.

Um, I believe that would still be considered cancellation. Cancellation occurs for several reasons, one being the stars of the show being unwilling to re-sign contracts, for which reason the producers may decide to stop producing it.

Fine, then I stand corrected. I look at 'cancelled' as having to do with a show that has low ratings. But whatever.

getting back on-thread...

im all for Nick at Nite shows. i'll watch GSN at nite sometimes (i love game shows)

also all the "must-see TV" shows of the 90s (ie. Friends, Frasier, Seinfeld, Mad About You, Just Shoot Me, ok you get the idea)

while i couldnt do it before, i can stand to sit through Family Matters, Full House and Step-by-Step (the old TGIF) now, but at minimum, like 2 episodes max. otherwise i get all weird.

With the Cosby Show, Full House, and other TV shows of the late 80s-early/mid 90s, I've come to realize that I enjoy the earlier episodes more than I do the later ones that lead up to the finales.

Take for instance, the Cosby Show. Loved it loved it loved it when Rudey couldn't even write. Couldn't stand her when she grew up.

Same with Michelle on Full House.

And all this time I thought I was the only grown-up addicted to Spongebob.

Sometime in February or March, this becomes part of Nick at Nite or at least there will be a week long marathon.

I love to watch Boy Meets World. This came on when I was in college and I did not catch it regularly but I try to watch it on the weekends.

Other shows include:

Family Matters
Full House
Cosby Show
Roseanne
Living Single
Mama's Family (Tuesday evenings on CMT)

I saw it advertise on tv that the marathon was starting Jan. 21st. but that did not happen, so I checked online. It is suppose to come on Feb. 12. At least that is what I read.
