TvONE has been giving me all the chips I need with my sandwich lately, showing all of these amazing shows, and movies. One of my favorite movies is on The Jacksons An American Dream, I classify my favorite movies as me knowing over half of the script with the television on mute. Shoutout to Katie aka Angela Bassett for the best line EVER…”Go to bed Joseph, Go to BED,” as well as “I don’t want you, I don’t want you, I don’t want you NO MO.” LOVE IT!!!
This post is very random, but I was watching Living Single, Family Matters, Moesha, and New York Undercover today, and these shows are LEGENDARY especially back in the 1990’s. Most of these shows out now, have a DVD series, I don’t get it. Where are these series at Target, Walmart, to be honest I wouldn’t mind purchasing on Amazon. I just think its terrible that I only get one season tops when these shows had an excellent RUN.
These distributors who work with syndication have got to do BETTER! I already have my Martin seasons 1-5 in the box, where I can have all the Otis, Shenaynay, along with the antics of Tommy, Gina, Cole, and Pam….please don’t forget Bra' Man. Now I’m ready for these other shows to join the bandwagon because the shows on now just don’t give me all the syrup for my pancakes.
Woah I just thought about the ole school Nickolodeon, those were the dayssssss (All in the Family reference), oooooo and the ole school Nick at Night, when they showed Three’s Company, I mean I love George Lopez and Everybody Hates Chris, but cmonson (insert my glasses and expression.)
How do you feel about this, better yet what was your favorite show, and episode from your era?

I'm about the same age as you, and I'm kinda disappointed with the new Nick @ Night lineup because I feel like I could watch reruns of The Cosby Show, Facts of Life, The Wonder Years, I Love Lucy, and The Brady Bunch forever. Since Nick @ Nite has changed their programming to focus more on modern shows, these oldies are easily forgotten and may only be caught on TV Land from time to time.
TVOne has brought great joy this winter break for me. I'm excited that they're bringing A Different World back on air, but I'm going back to school when it comes on and I don't have TVOne there =/
It's nice of them to keep our cherished 90s black sitcoms on the air, but I agree that we can further support them with box sets. I was too excited when The N started playing Moesha and Oxygen and TVOne reaired Living Single. Now only if I could have them on DVD...
I used to love the Jamie Foxx show and they don't even play that anymore on BET...there's nothing but reality shows nowadays which i hate. Nick @ Nite just isn't the same anymore either.
im 29 and nick at night and nickelodeon aren't the same anymore, i miss Doug, Are You Afraid of the Dark, and Teen Nick when it didn't have all the sex rock and roll! I love me some black sitcoms, and i love tvone, for tryin their best to bring back some of the sitcoms and shows from the 90's, NY undercover, Thea, Moesha, I would like to see the Parkers as well!
i have the same dvd lol
We need a new generation of black shows... they are fading fast and living in the past glory isn't helping
Miss P...That is so True...i have been looking for the Moesha DVDS...but therte no where to be found...lol
omg miss p, you read my mind. for like the past month i've been trying to find martin season 2 in stores because i dont really like ordering over the internet and i cant find it anywhere. i have seasons 1, 3, & 4. and everytime i ask the people in the store they be like whatever we have on the shelf is all we have. but half of the stuff on the shelf i never even heard of. i think that they should put all the 90s show out on dvd and let these new shows build themselves up first instead of putting those on dvd. like who really buy these new shows on dvd anyway
