In Chicago, WWME-CA "Me-TV" Channel 23 showed the Saturday CBS lineup 6 nights a week from 7-9:30 CT. They just changed their lineup for the summer by adding a lot of different shows like "Love American Style" "Petticoat Junction" "Facts Of Life" "Family Ties" "Brady Bunch" "Bewitched" "I Dream Of Jeannie" "Archie Bunker's Place"

One of the great things is that they've been showing some of
the best episodes of each show; for example, "Chuckles Bites
the Dust" from The Mary Tyler Moore Show" and "If It Looks
Like A Walnut..." from The Dick Van Dyke Show.

Two I'd like to have seen: "Coast-to-Coast Big Mouth" from
Dick Van Dyke (Laura blabs on nationwide TV that Alan Brady
is really bald) and that Bob Newhart Thanksgiving episode
(can't remember the exact title) where he, Howard, Jerry, and
Mr. Carlin get drunk watching a football game; unable to cook
a turkey they call a Chinese restaurant and order "Moo Goo GOO
GOO Gai Pan." Then Emily, who's been spending the day with her
parents, arrives home, just about the time a huge truckload of
moo goo gai pan shows up.

Most of the sitcoms are so good I can understand why that genre
seems to be dying. So many of today's sitcoms just are not funny
(not to me, at least).
