Is Gilligan's Island at 8 PM working for Me-TV?

I think it is. If nothing else is on 9 times out of 10 that's where I go (haven't seen them in years). I see tonight they're back to black & white, they were in color last week......they must not be showing them in order.

I couldn't tell you as my local ME affiliate went dark about a month and a half ago. Even though they occupied a low channel number (5), Cable One (yeah the ones that gave me $3.50 back for the Turner outage), has yet to fill it. In fact, in my market Cable One has both Channels 5 and 9 unoccupied. Doesn't make sense to me.

As for Gilligan's Island, it was a short-lived series, just three years. So my guess is these runs burn pretty quickly, especially if they are running every night, or even 5 days a week.
 
Me-TV on 12.2 with Gilligan and THIS on 12.3 with The Adams Family.
Me-TV ran the first Gilligan episode last night. It was time compressed to the point it was like they were on crack.

I'll watch 12.3 if I must.
 
The first two episodes of the "Gilligan's Island" were actually broadcast yesterday morning at 10:00 and 10:30 (Central times). The final episode was broadcast last Thursday night at 7:30 (Central time also).

It's on 8 PM Mountain time in Boise.
Not nearly as time compresssed as the first one, but it still is. Can hear the audio artifacts (glitches) from the time squeeze.

Me-TV gets ratings, but they're not reported anywhere. My guess is Gilligan is doing quite well.

I recall reading about 6 months ago that Me-TV is now getting ratings data.........maybe it's just not made public???

OK, was able to pull it up with a google search (see other thread).

They run 10 episodes a week (2 a day Mon-Thu, and 2 on Sunday morning) - that will burn through 3 seasons in a hurry.
 
I think some of their better episodes are the later ones. Just when they're getting in the groove, they get cancelled.
 
I don't know but anything has to beat the Dick Van Dyke show that they ran month after month hour after hour

I think Antennae TV is the only network that shows programs in order.
