No Wonder Years, huh?

[JulieSomoski]

I've completely given up on this network. The only thing I'll be watching is he special Drew Carey airing at 10:30 1 Thursday night, which is just sad. Pavan, whatever happened to that afternoon sitcom block we were all hoping for, or even any kind of expansion to the afternoon? They have so many sitcoms just sitting around, like TWY, Growing Pains, WTB?, etc, and they're not using them.

[Pavan]

Julie, you know they weren't going to expand in the summer since they already announced they will expand to 4pm in the fall. If there is any more expansion, it will be after the fall. Hope to answer that in our interview.

When is the "Interview" going to take place? I am very much wanting to know when they will expand to a Normal channel.

I could not agree more. I used to DVR two hours of ION every night - Alice and Drew Carey. Now, I don't even turn it in. I did notice, however, some interesting movies - but my concern is that they would be cut to death.

Forgot they were expanding in the fall. Still, they have so many better shows they could air. I'm already tired of the Harvey/Wayans Block that's taking up 2 hours of the schedule there. They could air maybe an airing each of WTB, Growing Pains, The Wonder Years, and Drew Carey in there instead.

Finally, Wayans Bros. is gone. It's about time - this network is looking up after all. Although I still would have rathered something different, like The Wonder Years or Growing Pains. I wonder if the schedule they planned for the fall will still hold up . . .

[Jude The Obscure]

Well, I'm happy to see Mr. Cooper--will finally give me something watch so I don't have to be stuck while someone else wants to watch Judge Judy!

happy that ion is bringing in hanging with mr. cooper, but disappointed that their lineup of shows are already on other stations - plus the recent 90's lineup. oh ion how you disappoint me.

my choice of line up:

alf
wonder years
webster (maybe)
227
facts of life
silver spoons
my secret identity
greatest american hero
perfect strangers
growing pains

and possibly a weekend retro-family block:

small wonder
out of this world
california dreams
punky brewster
out of this world

...just to name a few

[PrettyinPink55]

The Facts of Life airing again would be a dream!!!
But it seems like once Ion stats airing shows and you get attatched to them, they suddenly pull them away again...
