These lists of extracts from old TV guides are about the most boring things posted in here, but giving on the title of "!!" really ices the cake.
 
These lists of extracts from old TV guides are about the most boring things posted in here, but giving on the title of "!!" really ices the cake.
I haven't been posting here as long or as often as many others, but in the short time I've been here, I've learned which posters generally contribute something of value to me and which ones have absolutely nothing of interest. When I see a post by bpatrick, I always read it. When I see ones by some other individuals, I ignore those and move along. What I don't understand is why some people feel compelled to comment rudely in posts they claim not to care about. If you don't want to read another boring extract from a 35 year old TV Guide, then you should skip my threads, and bpatrick's threads, and Mitchell's threads, etc. No one holds a gun to your head and forces you to endure it. I certainly wouldn't waste my time going to threads I don't like with the sole intent of rating them as low as possible and then telling the OP how awful it is. I'm certain that it won't deter bpatrick from posting another one, and it certainly won't deter me. In fact...check out my next thread.

As Columbo would say, "Just one more thing." I appreciate the fact that people are posting these schedules. It's a classic TV forum, and how many times can you really have the Jeannie vs. Samantha or Ginger vs. Mary Ann type debates that are ubiquitous on every single classic tv forum since the beginning of the world wide web? Classic TV schedules are very unique to this web site discussion forum. It's what lured me here in the first place, made me sad last year when the site closed, and makes me happy now that it's back up.

Read my post. I had ignored most of these lists after making one comment when they first started appearing. At the time I posted what I posted above, the title of this thread was two exclamation points. That's it. Two exclamation points. Now, a couple of hours later, there is a new title. My complaint was about the title, and now that the title has been changed, the only appropriate comment is to quote Emily Latella, "Never mind."
 
That's right, me and bpatrick are from the USA, not Canada,

and bpatrick,

I'm still waiting for Sunday, Valentines Day 1999 and Monday, Feb. 15, 1999!
 
The "!!" should not have been there, and I don't know what foul-up caused it. I put these listings because a friend of my dad's, who's an antique collector, knows that I collect old TV Guides and found these for me; it's a change of pace for me to post something besides Atlanta, North Carolina, Kentucky, etc. occasionally.

To be honest, these New Hampshires were not the most exciting for me either, but at the same time I read the retros that look the most interesting to me, so if anybody sees one that doesn't suit their interests, it's a free country and you can stop reading or bypass them altogether. You needn't attack me for placing postings I didn't design 15 years ago for a region I don't normally follow.

If you're looking for Canadian listings, I would suggest you start with Montreal-St. Lawrence; there are several available on eBay.

I don't mean to sound at all apologetic for posting them, but I figure somebody might like to see these, and yes, I intend to continue posting retros from somewhere. 'Nuff said on my part.
 
To anabate: I've had a busy weekend and expect more of the same tomorrow. I haven't forgotten your request and will try to get them up this week. Sorry for the inconvenience.
