I watch Nick at night every night. I watch the shows: Full House, The Cosby Show, Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air, and all of those. THEY KEEP PLAYING THE SAME EPISODES OVER, AND OVER AGAIN! I'm so sick of watching the same ten episodes over and over again!~ Does anybody know why nick at night is doing this?

They do it on TVLand, Oxygen, Lifetime too.
My mom is always watching M*A*S*H, Roseanne, and Reba on these channels, and I swear, every single time I come downstairs she's watching the same episode. It's annoying to me and I don't even watch them!
So I feel for you, buddy. I wish I knew why they did that too.

I had the same problem with Futurama and Family Guy. The same episodes over and over. Annoying. I think someone's asleep at the helm. And if it's not that then it's something like they show an episode from later in the series and the next night they show the first episode of the series without even getting to the last episode.

Whoever is supposed to be changing the episodes to run is probably passed out in their office or cubicle or whatever. Someone needs to be fired! I think they do that same thing with Adult Swim on Cartoon Network. Futurama episodes have been seeming really familiar lately, and I just started watching that show 2 months ago.

I have no idea, but I do think they should start replaying old 90s cartoons on Nick-at-Night. It'll help with the rotation and since it only does have like, 4 or 5 shows it won't show the same eppy after another.

To make the series last longer.
They play the same few episodes over and over until their viewers hate it, then they switch to a new set.
Nick at Nite is mostly younger viewers: those who have too short of attention spans to realize they watched the same episode a couple nights ago.

I felt the same way about Fox airing M*A*S*H...They chose like 20 episodes and only played those. I bought the DVD's and noticed that I hadn't seen most of them even though I've been watching the reruns for years!!!

I agree. It's like nobody works there anymore, they just keep the same tapes in the machine to play day after day, week after week. When the machine breaks down, maybe someone will notice and add something different.
Same goes for TV Land.

Cause all the old ppl forget they've already watched 'em so they just play 'em over again. I like the Roseanne reruns.

I don't know, I haven't had cable in 3 years. I think they should mix it up a little and use some shows from off of tvland.

Yeah I agree, it's really annoying. And I miss when they played shows like I Love Lucy and Dick Van Dyke! :(
