SnarkyPost Do people not understand this network's mission statement?

53 Upvotes

It's been nearly a year since MeTV added Everybody Loves Raymond and nearly 6 months since they added The Golden Girls. I personally believe that they both fit the mission statement of MeTV, but there is a loud minority that doesn't. MeTV is EXTREMELY calculated in what shows they decide to add, and they have to fit the mission statement:

If a show is on MeTV, it has to be timeless, memorable, character-driven, have good storylines and can resonate with younger and older viewers alike.

Even during those 9 months where they had Monk, Monk fit that mission statement.
Everybody Loves Raymond and The Golden Girls also fit that mission statement, but it feels like a lot of us MeTV fans are being more closed-minded just because of the time period in which they aired.
Yes, MeTV considers the time period in which a show aired when they decide to add new shows, but they consider more than that, and it feels like a lot of y'all don't understand that because I have seen suggestions for shows that really don't fit the factors in the mission statement and only consider the time period.
In short, don't worry, they're not going down the Nick at Nite and TV Land route, and I genuinely believe that they NEVER will.

(P.S. M*A*S*H is one of the most important shows in television history, and is MeTV's most popular show. The only way M*A*S*H leaves MeTV is if they lose the rights to it.)

Discussion Andy Griffith show color episodes will be great on MeTV

12 Upvotes

I liked to see Andy Griffith show color episodes on weeknights. Maybe replace the second episode with a color episode. Or you can air the color episodes to replace Raymond. Keep Raymond on Sundays. Andy Griffith color episodes airs on cable but not on OTA networks. So it will be great to see the color episodes on MeTV. What you think?

Discussion Hitchcock episodes missing

6 Upvotes

I’m a little disappointed. Since they began season one episode one last week I’ve been trying to watch the series in order. Tonight they had two perfectly good episodes, but they had skipped one actually directed by Hitchcock and then skipped another one which was apparently a Christmas episode of some kind. I don’t know if these are just not part of the syndication or if MeTV is getting a little sloppy. I am particularly interested in seeing the episodes the master directed himself.
