Members JER Soaps Fan Posted October 8, 2006 Members Share Posted October 8, 2006 That IS radical! I worry for "7th Heaven" fans. Most don't even know the show is back and now they're going to tune in on Mondays if they did hear about the move and it won't be there, then they'll think one of their friends played a HORRIBLE prank on them!

Members WTGH Posted October 8, 2006 Members Share Posted October 8, 2006 As long as America's Next Top Model stays put on Wednesdays all is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted October 8, 2006 Members Share Posted October 8, 2006 No, I just think the viewing public knows when enough is enough. From an outsider's standpoint, it was still an awful decision to axe EVERWOOD for 7TH HEAVEN. My cable company still doesn't have CW. LOL. Everyone here is pissed.

Members JER Soaps Fan Posted October 8, 2006 Members Share Posted October 8, 2006 Sorry, bellcurve, I don't think so. The audience of "7th Heaven," trust me, cannot GET ENOUGH of this show. Those churches and youth groups that made it a hit on The WB for, what, 10 consecutive seasons? They're just glad a good, Christian show is on television. Trust me, if the CW hit every church in America and put out bulletins about the show's new time and network, it'd be raking it in again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rhiannon Posted October 8, 2006 Author Members Share Posted October 8, 2006 I miss Everwood....... There isn't a mynetworktv affiliate here, and I want to see the programming so bad...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted October 8, 2006 Members Share Posted October 8, 2006 The only reason 7th Heaven was being cancelled was because of high costs. I think bringing it back was a smart idea, but they should've retooled the idea and created a spin off. That way you keep the high 7th Heaven ratings plus you have another new show to bring promotion to the network. The mistake was bringing back the original series with most of the original cast. I also think Everwood could stay cancelled. It's ratings were never great and I don't know that it was bringing in a lot of buzz until it was in cancellation danger. I do love the show, but I'm looking at it unbias. Cancelling it would be yet another open slot for a new show and new shows are what help bring attention to the new season.

Members bellcurve Posted October 8, 2006 Members Share Posted October 8, 2006 Doubt it. And if church audiences were so gun-ho about Christian Programming that appeals to them, why didn't PAX succeed as a network? I don't mind having programming on TV that skew Christian Audiences(TOUCHED BY AN ANGEL was good, cheesy fun every once in awhile, as are those HALLMARK MOVIES), but ten seasons of that was enough. At least give another "feel goood show" similar to that of 7TH HEAVEN a chance to succeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted October 8, 2006 Members Share Posted October 8, 2006 WHY!!!!!??!?!? Im officially dropping a full night of CW now. I loved the Sunday comedy block. The only show I really cared about watching was Everybody Hates Chris but watched the others bc there was nothing else to watch. Cant watch on Monday bc I have hte MyN shows and Heroes on NBC. Cant add anything else on Monday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JER Soaps Fan Posted October 9, 2006 Members Share Posted October 9, 2006 I disagree, bellcurve. Take The CW message boards, for instance. You have fans of the show saying they don't like the new season but guess why? It's mostly for two reasons: one, the lack of the whole family, but moreso, it seems, is the fact that the season is "sexier" (and some of you laughed when I said the season premiere with Lucy's sex-filled "My husband is hot, you know you would sleep with him" sermon was pushing the envelope for this show). They don't like that Eric and Annie are having so much sex now, they don't like that Lucy is talking about sex in church, they don't like that Lucy is talking to a FIFTEEN year old ('another man') about her marital problems and they don't like that Martin tried to get Sandy to sleep with her again. 'I usually watch this show with my 11-year-old but these days, the show has become all about sex just like all the other shows on TV' one mother is paraphrased as saying. 'All they talk about is sex these days!' another says. When, if you watch the show, that is so NOT the way it is, lol. Yes, there's more sex mentions, but they're all between married people...except of course with Martin and Sandy. And with Martin, the show has drove it home that he's 'troubled' and not 'good', and Sandy, the woman who's training to become a minister, the one whose pants he wants to get in, well, they portray her as 'good' and 'levelheaded' so I think the message is shown 'against' their copulation. But that's how the fans of this show are. And to respond to your worthy comment about Pax, I think there's a bottom line to that, and that's the shows sucked and/or they weren't on a widely distributed network. The WB was more accessible and "7th Heaven" had been a critical hit and caught on by word-of-mouth among the church groups. I know I've heard woman RAVING over it and how their hold family watches the show together, lol. It really is that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Casey Posted October 9, 2006 Members Share Posted October 9, 2006 Good...I never liked the fact that they put the shows on Sunday night anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
