Back in July I noticed that TV Land - the cable channel allegedly devoted to Old TV Shows -
was changing quite a bit by showing movies and newer shows such as
Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. Unfortunately there's more bad news on the Old TV Shows front: Nick at Nite has
apparently reinvented itself as another Disney Channel.
I found this out via TV Squad, which noted that Nick at Nite is showing the
absolute crap fest, The George Lopez Show. Really. George Lopez.
It's kind of sad; just like TV Land, this mini-network has been gutted. As I put it in the TV Land Ping, "It's all become more of a dumping ground for their content." That works fine for YouTube because it's a website; I expect a TV network to be, uh, a little more focused.
That said, here are shows I'd really like to see on Nick at Nite if they actually showed old TV shows:
- Mr. Belvedere
- Perfect Strangers
- Newhart
- Quantum Leap
- What's Happening!!!
- Star Trek
- Star Trek: The Next Generation (sufficiently old at this point - late 80s/early 90s, I feel)
- The Dick Van Dyke Show
- Bewitched (bonus points for airing the Tabitha spin-off)
- I Dream of Jeannie
- Get Smart
I'm sure you have others, so speak up.
