GHScorpiosRule September 22, 2015 Share September 22, 2015 GHSR, there is one lonely little entry on TV Guide Online listing Remington Steele as airing on October 4th at 3:00 p.m. But that's all. Is it correct? Time will tell, I guess! This is me making a *rasberry* like Koba from Rise of the Planet of the Apes at my television screen. If MeTV is going to continue showing clips of Laura and Mr. Steele, then they should bloody well air the show! Then again the network as been wonky lately...airing Hogan's Heroes when I am expecting to see Perry Mason--that's what my dvr says what was recorded, or seeing M*A*S*H* when I'm expecting to sit down and watch The Andy Griffith Show!

I l used to love the station, but now if it didn't have Perry Mason (which they don't even show in prime time) I might even forget about recording it. They are showing so many over-exposed sitcoms at night, and the same ones on the weekends. I would love for them to bring back The Fugitive, and show the original Star Trek more than once a week.

WendyCR72 October 7, 2015 Share October 7, 2015 Sounds like many of these so-called retro stations are slowly falling victim to what other cable channels have done: Moved away from their "brand". I don't have COZI, so I have no idea if it ever showed really classic shows, but Baywatch - even 20+ years old now (sad but true!) - well, it doesn't seem to "fit" on such a channel. But if shows that are being shown elsewhere are on these channels while obscure shows are not, there is but one reason as to why: $$$$$$$$$$$$$. And that, alas, is what it all boils down to. If people will watch, it means revenue. And screw the brand. Just ask MTV. Or VH1. Or The History Channel. Or TLC.

GHScorpiosRule October 7, 2015 Share October 7, 2015 I don't know. Sure, I'm upset that they took Remington Steele off their schedule and replaced it with Happy Days and Laverne & Shirley on Sundays, where the latter also airs during the week, but I love those two shows as well, as I grew up watching them. And I just love seeing Ron Howard as wee in The Andy Griffith Show, only to see him as a teen/college boy an hour or so later in Happy Days. I LOVE the theme song to Laverne & Shirley and though I'm a chronic fast forwarder in the opening credits, this one I don't, because I find myself singing along. I get my Perry which airs in the morning and late night, but since I dvr it anyway, watch them in chunks over the weekend. Cozi still airs the '70s classics for me--Six Million Dollar Man, Bionic Woman, Charlie's Angels along with the '80s shows as well; Well, I haven't really seen the current schedule, so I don't know what show Baywatch replaced. Magnum? We still have Murder, She Wrote, Miami Vice. I guess because I have the dvds to Remington, I'm not that bummed. But bummed enough to email MeTV only to get the standard automated reply. I'm sure it will return. What is bothering me more is that I we only got to see part one of Matlock's pilot, before it jumped to the middle of season 4! And the first three seasons are my favorite! Plus, the first episode after the pilot, which technically, is the third episode, featured Dick Van Dyke as "The Judge" who was the killer (it's not a spoiler, you know it within the first five minutes!), before his show, Diagnosis Murder aired, and hee! to have Griffith appear as Matlock after Matlock went off the air, on that show, as grumpy Ben. Plus, I really enjoyed the small bits of Don Knotts in the early years, and MUCH, MUCH prefer Tyler to the incompetent, bumbling, always getting caught/the crap beat out of him Conrad! And I really wish some channel other than that atrocious Up would air Judging Amy, because in addition to the bleeping, it doesn't air ALL the episodes because those are too "controversial" or not "puuuuuuure" enough. Which then begs the question: Why'd they pick it UP?!!! *sniff* Yes, I'm upset because Tim Daly starred in the last episode of Season 4 and I wanted to see him with his sister, Tyne Daly, dammit! Oooh, alliteration! And I can't find any free epis online!

It's working for the moment though, I just have to do a lot of fiddling with the antenna wire and keep it away from the power cables on the TV etc.I view over-the-air TV 30 miles north of Chicago using a Mohu antenna. I am just close enough to the city of origin of a lot of retro broadcasting to get addicted to the content, heh. Sometimes during stormy weather I have to move my antenna from one window to another and/or rescan for channels. Large trees and buildings (especially new ones--maybe an issue where you are) are also a factor. About the "letter box" view: I'm out of state now with family, but I seem to recall being able to change that for at least some stations using the TV's settings. Also, I get a lot of retro TV stations at more than one access point/channel number, and sometimes the same station will appear full screen on one channel and not on another. For instance, I watch NYPD Blue on 26.4, but there's also a version of the broadcast (I think letterbox--I'd have to check when I get back) at 20.4 and I think sometimes at 22.4. So, my main point is that you might want to do a completed auto-scan for stations and then manually surf through them to find the best quality broadcast. ETA: Since Time Warner means (to me) that you have cable, this would probably mean trying an over-the-air antenna too. This should be as simple as plugging it in and then selecting "input" on your TV remote and choosing the antenna for you to try/use it. You should then be able to switch back to cable input at any time. Sometimes during weather I have to move the antenna to one window to catch ION and another to catch My50 Chicago--I think that's ME TV? It has old Bones episodes, The Closer, and, during weekday mid-mornings, old L&O SVU.

Tomorrow Cozi will be showing four Bionic Woman episodes featuring the fembots. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/61546-retro-tv-channels-%E2%80%9Dthe-good-old-days-of-television%E2%80%9D/page/10/#findComment-1661320
Milz November 2, 2015 Share November 2, 2015 DC and Baltimore got Comet TV, a sci-fi network. Mr. Milz and I saw part of Moonraker (Roger Moore James Bond with special guest appearance by Jaws. I know it's cheesy, but my fav part of the movie is when Jaws bites through the support cable of the cable car.) 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/61546-retro-tv-channels-%E2%80%9Dthe-good-old-days-of-television%E2%80%9D/page/10/#findComment-1665576
Cobb Salad November 3, 2015 Share November 3, 2015 I checked Comet TV's website and didn't find an affiliate for NY/NJ, hope that changes. I am wondering with all of these digital sub channels and more sprouting up if it's worth keeping cable anymore. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/61546-retro-tv-channels-%E2%80%9Dthe-good-old-days-of-television%E2%80%9D/page/10/#findComment-1667551
cincivic November 3, 2015 Share November 3, 2015 Not sure the station name (maybe antenna tv) but it was channel 20-3 in southwest Ohio. This weekend it went to Buzzr tv. No warning or anything. It played Barney Miller, The Jefferson's, All in the Family, Doogie, Three's Company, and my favorite, Maude. I like the old game shows but it would have been nice to get a warning. Plus, the guide still has the sitcoms listed so I have to check online to see Buzzr's schedule.

HyeChaps November 4, 2015 Share November 4, 2015 Last night I happened upon Mayberry R.F.D. OMG I hadn't remembered how very, very boring it was. They built a whole episode on Sam's difficulty growing string beans on his farm and Millie's success in growing them in her back yard.

magicdog November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 I get Cozi-TV through Dish Network. I have Dish, but Cozi seems to be partnered with FE-TV which has both logos on screen. Other shows ME-TV et al show or used to show have turned up on Family Net/Rural channels. FE-TV has been showing Adam 12 repeats on weekday mornings (9:00am & 9:30am PST) followed by Simon & Simon. I also seem to see a lot of religious programming on it which seems out of place to me. The Monkees have turned up on IFC of all places! They run marathons on weekend mornings. Caught a promo for Bionic Woman on ME - Lindsay Wagner was in it and looking great! I don't know if it's genetics, surgery, clean living or a combination, but she looks like she's aged beyond gracefully. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/61546-retro-tv-channels-%E2%80%9Dthe-good-old-days-of-television%E2%80%9D/page/10/#findComment-1677285

They built a whole episode on Sam's difficulty growing string beans on his farm and Millie's success in growing them in her back yard. Yeah, I've made it through one cycle of RFD on MeTv, and we are almost done w/ the last season again. It is such a boring show, and it is so dated as well, whereas TAGS has never seemed dated to me, even after Don Knotts left. I've only decided to stick it out through another cycle of the show b/c I figure this will be the last time I will ever want to see the show again.

roseha November 9, 2015 Share November 9, 2015 Some January premieres -Antenna has Johnny Carson, Mork and Mindy, and Dear John coming -Cozi has the A-Team Has there been any indication whether they will show all of the Carson shows as filmed? There always seems to be a tendency to cut musical numbers due to copyright reasons.
