New Broadcast Channel Now Airing "Abbott and Costello".....

Post Reply New Topic

Hey, you guys----in case you don't already know.....

There's a new broadcast channel that's a CBS channel, and is airing shows for "Binge Watchers"----right now, they're airing "Abbott and Costello"----next, will be "The Untouchables".

I watched "Celebrity Bowling" for 2 days, straight (when I was at home); it was wonderful "visiting with" all the 70s stars----to include Gavin McLeod, McClean Stevenson, Bob Newhart, Ed Asner (who has an ASD child)..... One show was with the Brady kids: Marsha and Greg vs. Jan and Peter (not in character). Also, Michelle Lee, Susan Olsen (whose son, who was named after her "Brady Bunch" brother Michael Lookinland {"Bobby Brady"}, has an ASD, and her husband couldn't handle it, and left them), Brenda Vacaro, Fannie Flag, JoAnne Worley, Angie Dickinson (whose ASD daughter committed suicide, when she was 40)..... Roy Rogers, Bob Newhart, Lloyd Bridges, and McClean Stevenson were the best male bowlers; Gayle What's-her-name (the black lady on "Mannix"), and Fannie Flagg were the best female bowlers.

After a few months of these binges, they'll have all different retro-TV shows.

Here's the website, so you can look-up what channel it's on, in your U.S. area:

Thanks, Campin_Cat. I hope I get that channel. I see from the schedule they also will be showing the old Dark Shadows. I think CBS may own the rights to Star Trek. I see a lot of potential there.

You're welcome!! There's also another national station, that NBC owns----it's called Memorable Entertainment TV (MeTV - 50s through the 80s):

They have Star Trek; and, on Saturday night, at 8pm (I think it is), they have Wonder Woman. They have ALL kinds of "oldies, but goodies"----like, Andy Griffith, M*A*S*H, Bonanza, Leave It to Beaver, Gilligan's Island, Hogan's Heroes, Mary Tyler Moore, The Rockford Files, Petticoat Junction----oh, just all kinds of good stuff.....

So, CBS had to get in, on the act!!

It's GREAT news, though, for someone like me, who doesn't have Cable.....

Oh, also on MeTV: The Twilight Zone, I Love Lucy, The Rifleman, Perry Mason, Quincy, M.E., Gunsmoke, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, Mission Impossible, Bob Newhart, The Alfred Hitchcock Hour.....

That is such great news. A co-worker is a big fan of Perry Mason. I easily get hooked on marathons of shows I like. Also, I will move in a year or so and won't be able to afford my current directv (satellite). Yummm. The old Dark Shadows, Abbott and Costello and the old Car 54. It is like a time machine.

I know----right.....

Oh, if you're moving and won't be able to afford Satellite, this'll be WONDERFUL, for you!!

There's a channel that broadcasts one episode every week of "Columbo", I love that show.

Oh, I know----I really like it, too. One of the reasons I fell in-love with the show "Law and Order: Criminal Intent" (with Vincent Vincent D'Onofrio, ONLY), was because "Bobby" (Vincent) reminded me of "Columbo".

I think MeTV shows "Columbo".

I think "Columbo" is timeless.
