@TJ523597 ай бұрын
wiki cites Riptide running from January 84 to April 86 for 3 seasons/ 58 Episodes... and Moonlighting having Started March of 85 to May of 89 5 seasons/66 Episodes so it's possible you watched Early Riptide and then split the difference on the overlapping season once moonlighting debuted; with both averaging less than 20 episodes a season (moonlighting closer to 13) I imagine there were few weeks when both had new episodes opposite one another

0:06- Little 10 year old me would've been in my grandma's bedroom watching Moonlighting because to me, Bruce Willis was, and always will be the man. My grandma on the other hand was probably in the front room watching Riptide because I remember seeing some of this show when I was a kid. Along with that, I was also watching a lot of Remington Steele because of Pierce Brosnan along with the CBS Tuesday Night Movies if there were any good movies on that night. As for A-Team, I only remember watching it on syndication on late Saturday afternoons right after Kung Fu. I didn't care much for the show, but boy did my grandma LOVE it. As for The Jeffersons, again, I only remember watching it on syndication. If I did see it at all on prime time television, it was probably in the early 80's, and not very much of it. A

"The Jeffersons" was a staple of CBS' kick-ass Sunday night lineup--alongside "60 Minutes," "Archie Bunker's Place," "One Day At A Time," "Alice," and "Trapper John, M.D."--between '79 and '82, if my memory serves me correctly. Undoubtedly one of the most successful network blocks in television history, bar none.

It's painfully obvious NBC was kicking ass throughout that spring, especially with "The A-Team" leading off the night; over on ABC, "Who's The Boss?" and "Moonlighting" weren't that far behind. Sadly, CBS axed "The Jeffersons" that summer (after eleven top-rated seasons) without even bothering to greenlight a proper series finale.

They could axe Jeffersons because by moving it to Tuesday night, the ratings went down and now they could cite that as a reason to end the show, the jerks.
