But then they switched to 9 hours of The Untouchables on Sunday. Hopefully that will be gong away. I never cared for Sanford and Son or Incredible Hulk so those no excitement there. Having been home so much, I'm tired of some of these shows that keep bouncing around between MeTV, Antenna TV and COZI. I wish they'd do better at rotating them in and out. I'm also sick of the blocks of shows. Even if it's one I like (and it rarely is) it's too much. Gilligan's Island, The Untouchables, The Office, House, Nash Bridges...I have no interest watching any of these, much less for hours on end. And does no one like I Love Lucy anymore?

My understanding is that even if you pay for cable, you still can't get a lot of the retro OTA channels. Since she moved there a few weeks ago, she can only get a clear phone signal inside her home through WiFi, so I'm guessing even an antenna on the roof won't do much. At least BUZZR is free online, but I really like a lot of Start TV. I really shouldn't complain or worry though, I can get most of those shows through Prime, Hulu, and Netflix, which my daughters already share with me through "family" plans. I guess because I'm older, I still like the idea of appointment TV --and radio too, rather than podcasts.

roseha October 6, 2020 Share October 6, 2020 (edited) There's a local Over-the-Air Channel, WJLP from New Jersey (though I believe they now broadcast from NYC as I get them in perfectly in Manhattan) who have been broadcasting Me-TV (on channel 33.1) for the last several years, and around a year ago I found out that they also simulcast a delightful oldies station which goes heavy on the 50s and 60s on channel 33.14. To my surprise, they have added the Retro Channel on 33.5. This channel is carrying all kinds of classic shows from Naked City and Route 66 to the Soupy Sales Show. Unfortunately the Soupy Shows are not the classic black and white 60s shows that Soupy ran from New York back in my childhood; those were said to have been mostly destroyed despite their great popularity at the time (in spite of their shoestring budget). Still it's fun to see these 70s shows with a similar spirit.

roseha November 11, 2020 Share November 11, 2020 Route 66 has been playing on the Retro Subchannel recently. It airs in the New York area as a channel 33 sub (WJLP) so it may be available elsewhere.

I am not sure why this show would be binged. I'm not sure why this show would even be watched.

That was Michael Mann, not Aaron Spelling, and was pretty good. A relatively rare combination of stylish and gritty for TV of the time. It's not Miami Vice, Mann's big contribution to TV, but you can see the infancy of that approach in it. There's also the considerably crappier show, "Las Vegas". Much more recent, and also not Aaron Spelling, but crappy enough to be a Spelling show.

Maverick November 15, 2020 Share November 15, 2020 Aaron Spelling produced Vega$. His daughter Tori famously had one of her first screen roles on the show and the main character, Dana Tanna (played by Robert Urich) had a brief cameo/crossover with Spelling's Charlie's Angels. 2 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/27/#findComment-6450144

I wish that show was accessible outside of Decades or purchasing DVDs. I really want to watch more than a random episode posted on YouTube. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/61546-retro-tv-channels-%E2%80%9Dthe-good-old-days-of-television%E2%80%9D/page/27/#findComment-6450963
Jaded November 15, 2020 Share November 15, 2020 1 hour ago, icemiser69 said: I seem to recall Decades having a binge weekend of Vega$ earlier this year. Decades has repeated their binge weekends in the past, maybe a Vega$ binge weekend will show up again next year. I don't get Decades which is why I wish I had another option outside of purchasing a DVD player after not having one for so long just to see the show. So many other older shows like that have made it to streaming so I wish it would too. Amazon's IMDB TV has Spenser for Hire so that's one way to get my Robert Urich fix when I need one. 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/27/#findComment-6451186

DXD526 November 26, 2020 Share November 26, 2020 Decades is changing its schedule slightly starting this Monday, 11/30. Laugh-In and The Jeffersons are being removed. The Millionaire will run from 6-7 a.m. Eastern, followed by an hour of The Ed Sullivan Show. The Love Boat is being added to the schedule, at 6 p.m., with another hour of Ed Sullivan at 7. 1 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/27/#findComment-6470635
