Default What's the Next Network that should put FOL back on the air?

What network do you think should bring bak FOL?

These are good network examples that I think should bring back FOL:
-TNN
-TV Land (defenetely)
-The-N
-Disney Channel
-Lifetime (not really, coz they'd show it in the mornigs [along with nanny and golden girls] and I'm in school then)
-Nick @ Nite (again)
BUT NOT HALLMARK, THEY SKIPPED SOOOOOOOOOOOO MANY EPISODES AND THEY CUT OUT SOOOOOOOOOOO MANY PARTS . Although I Liked that they showed a tag before the theme song.

TV Land and USA are the only ones I agree with. TNN is now a network geared toward men, and Disney Channel is now too focused on teenybopper crap.

I'd pick TV Land over N@N because I feel that FOL would have a better chance of getting more exposure since it's a 24-hour network. And they serioously need to do something with USA. I swear, I can't believe that channel is still on the air. Instead of airing the same crap day in and day our they should bring back the 70's/80's sitcoms, cartoons, and game shows and save their movies and crap for late evening/night. The network just needs more variety.

Definitely not Nick, they ruined the show, but it would be good on TVLAND, USA, and Lifetime.

I wouldn't mind seeing it on Lifetime, but they wouldn't show the original closing credits...I'd love to see it back on USA or go to TV Land.....but hopefully we'll just get it on DVD soon.

probably something like WE, Goodlife or maybe Hallmark again.

I think the show is probably too old for USA, Lifetime (look how long they kept Laverne And Shirley) or Oxygen at this point.

There is no TNN anymore, it's now Spike TV

I'd say it'd be great on WE, Oxygen, maybe even WGN(they air older sitcoms like Cosby Show, Happy Days and whatnot)

The-N ? No, it's geared towards tweens and teens as is Disney and I think FOL is too old of a show for both networks

I still have the TNN network and also Spike Network, they are 2 different networks in my area. I think FOL would be better off on TVLand or Lifetime or even USA, but on a time slot that I will be able to see it. School gets in the way with everything!!

TNN is now Spike TV and is a men's network, so FOL wouldn't fit there. TV Land would be a good home for it, IMO. Not a lot of people get THe-N (including me) so I wouldnt want it there, if it went on Disney Channel, Disney would edit it to death because Disney is a kids network and FOL isnt really a kids show, Lifetime is a good place for it, I doubt Nick@Nite will air it again, plsu they treat any show thats not Fresh Prince, Roseanne, and Full House like crap so that wouldnt be good....

I think TV Land is our best bet

I agree, plus the-N is alot like Disney Channel, and FOL def. wouldn't fit on either network, it's too old of a show for those networks, plus those are geared more towards tweens and teens

Exactly. Kids today just wouldn't respond to FOL if it were on The N. To them, FOL isn't "hip," and they wouldn't be able to identify with it because it's just so dated.
