I'd tend to think that at that time of night, most channels would be doing infomercials, but that's just me... I've got not one, but two of those vintage-TV side-channels... to RTV, the sister of Chicago's "U" was recently added AntennaTV, kin to WGN America. They appear to not dupe each other at all, or at least very little. Cheers is only available to me on Hallmark and HDnet. I spotted Married on three here: TBS (early AM), Antenna and one particular day on CMT (!) What happened to TVLand? '70s Show is on MTV, ABCFAM, and TeeNICK, besides syndi on some OTAs. What happened to FX? The Girls, still on WE and Hallmark. Nobody here does Walker. -- BOB -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
