I do no know what you guys are thinking with the current programming you have added to the network. You should all be ashamed of BUTCHERING this classic network!!!!!! "HOME IMPROVEMENT" on TV LAND?????? Someone MUST be on some serious drugs thinking this was a good move.
What is up with this MOVIE CRAP, TV LAND PRIM CRAP, YOUR SO CALLED REALITY SHOWS, I.E., THE COUGAR (What a flop that was and is), NOW THE INFOMERCIALS FROM 3-6 AM, HIGH SCHOOL REUNION (that is what class reunions are for in real life, who cares about other people's class reunions), 3RD ROCK FROM THE SUN IS NOT A CLASSIC SHOW, JUST SHOOT ME (someone should shoot the person that put this one on the schedule)!!!!!! GET RID OF THE COSBY SHOW, AND HOGANS HERO'S (never understood it, could be just me).
LISTEN TO THE PEOPLE THAT WAS THERE WHEN TV LAND WAS FIRST BROUGHT TO THE NETWORK!!!! THE FORMAT AND PROGRAMMING WORKED AND WAS GREAT!!!!!! WHY ARE YOU ATTEMPTING TO FIX SOMETHING THAT IS NOT BROKE FOR GOD'S SAKE!!!!! WHAT ARE YOU GUYS SMOKING!!!!!!
BRING BACK AND KEEP THE CURRENT CLASSICS YOU HAVE ON NOW: THE JEFFERSONS, GOOD TIMES, SANFORD AND SON, ALL IN THE FAMILY, GUNSMOKE, BONANZA, GILLIGAN'S ISLAND, THE DONNA REED SHOW, THE LIFE OF RILEY, BURNS AND ALLEN, LOVE THAT BOB, THE MANY LOVES OF DOBIE GILLIS, I MARRIED JOAN, I LOVE LUCY, THE JACK BENNY PROGRAM, BEWITCHED, I DREAM OF JEANNIE, THE BRADY BUNCH (I am personally tired of seeing it myself.), THREE'S COMPANY, GET SMART, M.A.S.H., THE CAROL BURNETT SHOW (when you had it on previously, you never showed it enough), ... THE LIST GOES ON.
LETS GET BACK TO BASICS PEOPLE.

PLease take off reality shows and bring back the shows. We all watch tv to have some fun not see a show that is horrible. I miss going to watch Mash,Jeffersons, Good Time, and would also like to see One Day At A Time added to your listing. I can only see so much of the reality shows and this should be left to the other networks. Thanks for your time

well..about 90% of the TV we watch in my home is TV Land, but if they continue to subject us to the swill we can find on any other channel, I'll have to find something else to watch. We go to TV land to avoid this stuff, and now we find it on TV Land. There are plenty of channels for younger viewers..there are still many of us old fogeys who want to see Bonanza, Gunsmoke, Andy Griffith, MASH, etc. and this was our place to see them.
I hope TV land realizes they are about to lose A LOT of viewers.

TVLand and Nick at Nite have been terrible!I would like to vote in Rich Cronin as NEW PRESIDENT in charge of TVLand!
Mr.Cronin understands the TV Generation!He is the one that airred Donna Reed,My Three Sons,Dennis The Mennace,Bewitched,Patty Duke,Mr.Ed and SO MUCH MORE!When Mr.Cronin was President of Nick at Nite in 1985.He has a SENSE OF HUMOR for Special events and ONAIR Promos that TVLand is CURRENTLY missing!
Due to declinning ratings and viewers not being heard I would like to suggest Mr.Larry Jones and President,Vice President of TVLand Programming and Company to step down and let MR.RICH CRONIN take his CRAFT and Re-build what the TV Generation REALLY WANTS!
Mr.Cronin,I hope you will except and PLEASE help this TV GENERATION NETWORK!
CRONIN!CRONIN!CRONIN!For NEW TVLand President of 2008!Thank you!

TV Land I wish you well because I am no longer a viewer. I hope you get the young viewers you desire. I am in my 30's so I don't exactly consider myself old. Your program has gone down the drain! Everytime I turn on your channel to relax with an old episode of something (Andy, Lucy, Beaver) its not usually on anymore. In its place the awful show High School Reunion. Yeap, you are only a tv channel and since there isn't too many good ones now that you basically air trash, I will invest in the DVD's and then I can have a marathon of what ever I am in the mood for instead of the garbage on what use to be my favorite channel and one that I watched more than any other channel out there. Again, best of luck and goodbye!!
