Newhart, WKRP in Cincinnati and The Honeymooners to start airing on WGN
From the wgn website:
OUTTA' SIGHT RETRO NIGHT
You don't have to be classy, to be classic. Remember when TV was good, decent and wholesome? Remember when sitcoms had integrity? WE'RE BRINGING IT ALL BACK.
Sunday Nights, put your mind on rewind... starting at 7 east | 4 west.
I say screw Nick at Night. I am very happy to have Newhart back....sadly only on Sundays.

They don't have the original music. They actually started running "WKRP" in June. "Johnny Fever" announced he just played "Youngblood," and it was definitely not that song. The WKRP reruns in on Nick at Nite and TVLand had the original music, but since it came out on DVD, I guess they no longer have those versions available for broadcast. It does diminish the show. The music they have isn't even a good substitute.

The AmericanLife TV Network has been running Newhart & WKRP on Monday nights for months now along with the 70's Bob Newhart Show & Mary Tyler Moore Show.

I haven't watched KRP so can't comment on music issues.

What happened to TV Land and Nick at Nite? All the great shows are on in the morning, or at 2AM? Now we have a bevy of Fresh Prince, Family Matters, Roseanne, and George Lopez? What happened to Cheers, All in the Family, Threes Company being on primetime?

TV Land has turned into crap and just rename themselves as TV wasteland-
They keep canceling the classics and have more reality crap added.
Just look at the TV Land forums and see that there are allot of people who want CLASSICS! http://forums.tvland.com/tvln/board?...rogramcomments
