What is up with TV One?


I believe "Martin" made 132 episode, why does the network show the same few episodes..everyday? I mean in a weeks time they must have show the first Halloween episode 3-4 times! What about season 3 and 4 episodes? Did the network lose the rights to a lot of episodes?

They've shown the episode where Pam accepts a date from Jerome a million times in the last few weeks as well. I've also noticed they've been rerunning a lot of the same episodes of Good Times and Sanford and Son. I'm not exactly sure what's going on with TV One. Perhaps, they only have the rights to specific episodes?

I've only had TV One for about a month give or take but I noticed the network shows maybe 20 different episodes in rotation. I guess it must be some with the network having the rights to certain episodes.

Same here I've been watching TV One for about a few weeks and I've noticed the same episodes play all the time. Thank goodness I have the DVDs.

That's true. It's pretty much the same with Full House and Nick at Nite.

IDK since they used to go through all of them but now they show the same ones everyday. Like last week they shows the three part episode where Martin and Gina broke up just about everyday. But looking at my Directv guide it seems to be off the schedule. I think BET has it now but I don't think I'm going to like the way they air it. They seem to be skipping a lot of parts and in some cases whole scenes.

I saw the show on BET also, I haven't watched BET in so long and don't plan on it. Anyways, MTV2 show Martin and it looks as if they shuffle the episodes around and play the same episode also.

That's what I hate about watching most shows on TV. I always seem to see the same handful of episodes over and over. 
