"Someone will eventually wake up...get the whole collection of Johnny Carson, Dick Cavett, Mike Douglas, and Merv Griffin shows...line them up from 9PM to midnight. At that point, half of the over fifty crowd will leave the garbage TV of today, and stage a revolt."

Great idea for Fox Business after Kennedy since it is all re-runs and the quirky but fun show Strange Inheritance. Find a week end slot for S.I. and you have a winner!

Whoever owns the rights to the Mike Douglas show....ought to go and offer up a deal. I think you are right...Fox Business would be brilliant to load this to the 9PM slot. I don’t see anything much left from the networks that really appeals to the over-fifty crowd.

MeTV, Antenna TV, the Retro Channel, Decades etc. They are all taking your idea. That’s pretty much what I watch.

Decades has Cavett nightly, Antenna has Carson.

GRIT shows lots of old westerns. There’s another channel that shows the 70’s black family shows, Jeffersons, What’s Happening, Good Times etc.
