Hogan's Heroes leaving? It's a good thing that I've got my favorite episodes on tape. (Except the one where the war is supposed to be over, which ep was that?)

As for Mannix, haven't seen it, so no big deal there, to me anyway.

Batman, of course, will be cool, since I haven't seen it really since the FX days (I did catch a couple on Sci-Fi)

The Sunday Bests (especially Dennis!) look good and the box sets look interesting.

Big changes in May? This could be very interesting. New shows perhaps? We can hope...

Sean Snow · 03-19-2002, 06:20 PM

Thanks for the information! I can't wait for 'Dennis'. I wonder about new shows too. To tell the truth, I won't miss "Mannix" that much. "Gunsmoke", though I think, should leave before "Mannix". I'm not that big of a fan of "Hogan's Heroes" simpiliy because I don't ever get a chance to watch it.

DetectiveGriffin · 03-19-2002, 06:59 PM

RIGHT ON! i cant wait to see what will be on in may. Although, if they show 6 hrs a day of the brady bunch, i might have to kick some hiney!

JT · 03-19-2002, 08:40 PM

Maybe just maybe "Three's Company" will leave NAN and will be on TVLand!!!!!!!!!!Post the new sked as soon as you can!!!!!!!
I'm mad 'cause Gunsmoke should have been long gone.If Love Boat gets a new slot Charlie's Angels should take its place.

ABC1 · 03-19-2002, 10:00 PM

The show that I'm most loyal to on TV Land is The Love Boat. When that goes, I'll be upset...
It hasn't been a year yet for that show. Maybe they'll have the rights to it for awhile yet.
I can only hope...

dawsongirl · 03-19-2002, 10:27 PM

Hogan's gone huh? Well, there goes my last reason to watch TV Land. Guess I can take it off my favorites list now.

LucyFan · 03-20-2002, 08:08 PM

I am glad to see that Hogan's Heroes will no longer be on TV Land. I really didn't care for that show and besides it has been on the network for a really long time. It definitely needed to go.

Mannix can go either way for me. It doesn't matter if its on or off TV Land for me.

I am so looking forward to Dennis the Menace. I really miss that show a lot and I am happy hear that it will air in April for a Sunday's Best. Hopefully, this show will be added to TV Land's regular line-up this May.

I am also looking forward to Batman. I am thinking about taping the marathon.
