The Family Guy is mediocre comedy that has ended two years ago. It did have a straight-to-video movie released though.

3rd Rock From The Sun did become painful, and criminally overrated. Aside from that, it has ended a LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG time ago, and I doubt Channel Seven will bother to plug it. Divert your attention to The Comedy Channel for your '3rd Rock' fix if you have subscription Television.

Miss Match went on Hiatus, then got cancelled in the USA. Got bad ratings for NBC. So they couldnt really have a girl power friday with just, Johanna Grigg's and Eliza Dushku - so theyve decided to give them separate and alternate time slots.

Scrubs didnt get great ratings here either, although it does well in the USA. Im not suprised its off air right now. Dont expect it back anytime soon.

The shows im missing are on other channels - Gilmore Girls, and Its All Relative - to complete their seasons.

The big ratings attractions for Network Seven basically are at the moment:

Home & Away
My Wife & Kids
Dancing With The Stars
Lifestyle Shows - Ground Force, Room For Improvement.

And dont forget - the highest rating network from 7am to 10am - mainly due to Sunrise.

All those and a few more get sensational ratings.

Nobody comes CLOSE to Channel 9.

Highest Rating News. (National Nine News, National Nine Weekend News being THE highest rated show on television)
Highest Rating Australian Show. (McLeods Daughters)
Highest Rating Comedy. (Friends)
Highest Rating Drama (CSI: Crime Scene Investigation - also being the WORLDS highest rating show)
Highest Rating Lifestyle Program (Backyard Blitz)
Highest Rating Channel in Sport (in exclusion of the Olympics)

Etc.

Did "That '80s Show" ever air in Australia? I can't ever remember it.

I used to love "My Wife & Kids" but they kept changing the time slot so much that I just lost track. The same can be said for "8 Simple Rules... for Dating My Teenage Daughter" but that seems to have disappeared totally recently.

It came, sucked, it went.

Um, MW&K has really always aired on Thursdays, except Channel 7 (seeing how much people LOVED it,and how many ppl watched it) had put in another time slot on Tuesday. But with the re-premiere, its gone to just once a week. I love the show, but the guy who plays Junior is one of the WORST actors on television. He is painfully bad. Today he tried to cry - dear EDIE!!!

8 Simple Rules... is gone for now.

When was it on?

I remember it was also on Saturday or Sunday for a period of time. So it is definitely on a Thursday night now? OK, I will be watching it from now on. I don't think the guy who plays Junior is that bad of an actor though. The worst actor on television (or from what I have seen) would probably have to go to Benjamin McKenzie (Ryan Atwood on "The O.C.").

8 Simple Rules... is gone for now.

The Family Guy is mediocre comedy that has ended two years ago. It did have a straight-to-video movie released though.

firstly, it's just family guy. no 'the'. secondly, it is the greatest comedy series of all time. so great that two years after being cancelled it was picked up for 35 more episodes because it was so sorely missed. and lastly, the family guy movie was planned because the series had been cancelled. it has not been released, nor is it certain whether it will ever be released

 

[GemmaHavok]

Yes, non-family guy lovers should learn to keep their opinions to themselves. The show has a cult following of mainly teenage boys who will stand up for it at all costs.
Channel 7's problem is that they promote shows that are complete shit and put the good shows on at ridiculous times and then end up taking them off air due to low ratings. For example Greg The Bunny - best show in the world and they had it on at like 11:30am during the school holidays. I mean, its not exactly a show for kids WHY WOULD YOU PUT IT ON THEN?!?! And again, Futurama - They put it on randomly at 11:30 at night once in a while. That 80's show was on during the day, it's like did anyone notice how heaps more people started watching That 70's show the second time Ch7 showed it, because they promoted it heaps. Ah well, I'm sure they'll learn soon, the same way Ch9 did with The OC.
Now that I think of it... Ch7 also had Everybody Loves Raymond first as well... I think we all know which Chanel got the promotion of that right.

Ch 7 also had friends to begin with but nine struck a deal with Warner Bros for rights to all their product so ch7 was forced to part with it.
& dont have many good deals with US studios. Their primary sources are Disney (Buena Vista, Touchstone Television), Touchstone Television, NBC Studios and 20th Century Fox.

they will be getting some good shows next yr, Seven have first rights to 'Lost' , "Arrested development' , 'Desperate Housewives' , 'Hawaii' and more.

damn straight

 

[Silverstone]

damn straight

Um, No. Then Non-Gilmore Girls lovers should keep their opinions to themselves. Non-Monk lovers should keep their opinions to themselves. Non-Angels In America Lovers should keep their opinions to themselves, etc.

Aside, crazyhomo, I just mentioned a bit of knowledge that I had on the video. No need to get 'anal' on me, and start going off because I mentioned that there was a movie in plan.

And no, theres far greater comedy series than just, The Family Guy. Look, it had its moments, and was very funny. But it wasnt great.

See...

Cheers, Taxi, The Lucy Show, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Frasier, Friends, Seinfeld, M*A*S*H, etc.

Channel Seven is pretty awesome. I love them. Especially on Sunday morning - afternoon.

Sportsworld (season finished), Our Generation, Home Improvement, Disney TV Movie, etc.

actually, i was referring to the part where family guy has legions of mostly teenage boy die hard fans

 

[tabularasa]

I mean look at what they did to futurama i mean one of the greates shows and they shot it to pieces with their dodgy timing.
