New Weekday Schedule for Decades

Digital specialty network Decades introduced a new weekday schedule earlier this month. When the diginet launched in 2015, its weekday schedule consisted of a six-hour block of themed programming aired four times each weekday. Over the past two years, Decades has moved away from this unusual scheduling philosophy. With the introduction of a traditional weekday schedule on March 5th, the daily theme has been completely abandoned.

The new weekday schedule includes an 8-hour “Television Across the Decades” sitcom block, airing from 9AM to 5PM ET. It features sitcoms like I Love Lucy, Our Miss Brooks, Petticoat Junction, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, and The Bob Newhart Show. Decades also airs The Best of The Ed Sullivan Show, Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In, and The Dick Cavett Show.

The hour-long Decades original series Through The Decades airs three times each weekday: at 8AM ET, 8PM ET, and 11PM ET. There’s a two-hour block of movies and specials from 2-4AM ET, followed by a two-hour “Lost TV” block from 4-6AM ET. The “Lost TV” currently consists of The Loretta Young Show, Honey West, Mr. Lucky, and Colonel March of Scotland Yard.

On weekends, Decades airs “binge” marathons of various TV shows.

  3. I simply adore these gems of the past before I was born and many I remember from childhood they had writers that knew how to write imagination never boring most of tv after 1995 began to be just boring too much sexual exploitation, then in the 2000’s rude words so called reality shows that involve fighting such as “bad girls club” reality? Obviously scripted why anyone would pay for cable to watch that crap I’ll never know real entertainment from 50’s-early 90’s is excellent thank you from exposing kids to real plots that you might actually have to think about the ending.

  4. Good day, I’m a watching fan of this network, but what’s driving me crazy is there NEVER NO NON-WHITE Shows on this sitehow or why!! This is 2019 and yous are still crowding these sites with nothing but WHITE SHOWS which is crazy in this time!! Its like yous are still promoting NOTHING BUT WHITENESSand this nonsense have to be RECTIFIEDbecause there more folks on this this STOLEN LAND then just CAUCASIANS!! This network needs DIVERSITY which this network does NOT have✌

    1. ROneal:
      The time frame in which these TV shows were made WERE with white actors, seldom any minorities. That’s just the way it was. You are asking for something that does not exist.

  5. Please I enjoy the television shows I like the honeymooners but I do not like those lost episodes can you please put the real honeymooners on not those lost episodes they are so boring thank you can you run the honeymooners marathon for the new year the real honeymoon is not the lost episodes thank you

  6. Thank you for showing us Family Affair for the past 6 months. Was really hoping you would start showing, “Courtship of Eddie’s Father”, when you finally aired a new show.
    Petticoat Junction has also been airing for the past 6 months. Maybe when you decide to change shows, you will give us something new like, “My three Sons”.
