Gilligans island, F troop & the love boat are coming to MeTV early next month. I havent seen gilligan & F troop in years. I was never a big fan of the love boat. F troop trivia. Melody patterson (wrangler jane) was only 16 when F troop debuted in sept 1965.

I watch The Fugitive and Naked City on Sunday night to see people who were at the beginning of their career. Naked City was made in the early 60's in B&W. Last week, a very young punk is robbing a store and gets shot by a wannabe cop. Punk was Dustin Hoffman when he was a kid. On the credits he was listed as the 4th 'with'. The wannabe cop, Steven Hill, became a regular on Mission Impossible and then the DA on Law and Order. Another episode had a court scene and one of the jurors was Gene Hackman. He was listed as a 6th 'with'. Another episode had one scene with Burt Reynolds.
Another program with a lot of 'they weren't stars back then' is Route 66, but it's on at 3AM.
I have Dish and also installed an antenna to get all the new digi OTA channels like Movies, THIS, ME

The streets of SF will be on MeTV starting sept 8th. That was a good show from the 70s. I wish MeTV would put petticoat junction & love american style on weekday evenings. Hogans hereos will be in that time slot as well as gilligans island & F Troop.

NBC also has an alternative, old-show channel. It's called ANT TV for "Antenna". Same type shows from the past with more movies than Me.

I recently lost cable when my landlord decided to no longer include it in the cost of rent. I'm not missing cable nearly as much as I thought I might. Screw Cox!

Me is 5-2 and Ant is 4-2 on my lineup. Me is an offshoot of ABC.

I'd never heard of Cozi. When I type in my zip, it says I need to contact my cable provider. I no longer have cable, so I guess I can't get Cozi.

I only have a rooftop antenna. Cable tv is way over priced + the taxes are crazy just like the utility & phone companies.

I bet the cable companies, dish, etc were upset when analog became digital. I received alot less channels + i rarely saw retro tv shows & movies. Digital tv is the way to go esp if you cant afford or want cable, dish, etc.
