Gone Too Far
OK, NOW TV LAND HAS GONE TOO FAR WITH THEIR "Teachers" SHOW. I HAVE NEVER SEEN THE SHOW AND GOOD REASON. WE WERE WATCHING ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW AROUND 5PM TODAY AND A COMMERCIAL ABOUT THE SHOW "Teachers" CAME ON AROUND 5:15PM. THE COMMERCIAL SHOWED A FEMALE TEACHER STANDING IN FRONT OF A CLASSROOM OF CHILDREN, APPEARED TO BE BOYS AND GIRLS AROUND AGE 8-9 AND THE TEACHER WAS SHOWING THE SIDE VIEW OF A PLASTIC BABY BOY WITH HIS MALE PART SHOWING LONGER THAN A BABY SHOULD HAVE ON PRIME TIME TV. I CHANGED THE CHANNEL BUT AFTER THINKING ABOUT IT, I WAS REALLY UPSET AND WANTED TO LET OTHERS KNOW THAT THIS HAPPENED. I AM GLAD NO CHILDREN WERE IN THE ROOM WHILE THIS WAS ON. I WAS HORRIFIED THAT CHILDREN WERE PARTICIPATING ON THIS SHOW AND BEING SHOWN THIS AT SUCH YOUNG AGES AND I BELIEVE THIS TO BE TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. THIS SHOULD NOT BE DONE AT ALL AND I WANT TO COMPLAIN THAT THIS SHOW SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED AND PULLED FROM TELEVISION. SHAME ON VIACOM, THE COMPANY THAT HAS ALLOWED SUCH PROGRAMMING. THIS IS NOT ENTERTAINMENT, IT IS JUST PLAIN WRONG FOR SUCH OFFENSIVE BEHAVIOR TO BE SHOWN ON TV.

Are you serious? Your shows Teacher and Younger are awful. Teachers is a disgrace to the teaching profession.
I thought you were a family channel. WHAT HAPPENED!!!!!
Our kids do not need these type of shows. I know they come on after prime time but you constantly
showing commericals about the shows.
Lets get back to the classics and clean it up a bit

TEACHERS
I AM AN EDUCATOR AND HAVE BEEN FOR OVER 39 YEARS.. IT IS RIDICULOUS OF THAT HORRID SHOW.(TEACHERS) THERE IS NOT A SCHOOL ALIVE THAT WILL HAVE EDUCATORS ACTING IN SUCH A DEPLORABLE MANNER. EDUCATORS HAVE PROFESSIONALISM, DECORUM, RESPECT, MORALS, VALUES, AND A PROFESSIONAL CODE OF ETHICS.. MANY PEOPLE ARE SO UPSET OF THE IGNORANCE, AND THE TERRIBLE BEHAVIOR SHOWN ON THAT SHOW "TEACHERS." IT IS NOT COMICAL BUT HORRIBLE. THE ROLE OF AN EDUCATOR/TEACHER IS TO PROVIDE THE OPPORTUNITY FOR INDIVIDUALS TO LEARN (ACADEMICALLY, AND MORALLY). WHAT SORT OF EMULATION SHOWN ON THAT SHOW WOULD PARENTS WANT THEIR CHILDREN TO PATTERN THEMSELVES AFTER. YOU ALL NEED TO DISCONTINUE IT.

New Raunchy Shows and Commercials
Even while watching Andy Griffith, TV Land puts on raunchy commercials from their new trashy sitcoms. TV Land could care less about being family-friendly. How sad. Their mix of family and trashy programs/commercials are certainly a terrible mix. Our family will no longer be watching TV Land.

ADVERTISING & NEW PROGRAM
I strongly object to the show being aired soon or maybe already - Teachers - the subject matter is horrible for families. This is not at all appropriate for children to watch and offends many adult viewers - esp seniors (raised with good morals). This channel has always been one I could count on to watch with children and elderly adults. Now there is too much sexual content, language and suggestive subjects. I also object to all the "drag" queens in commercials. This too is not family related material!!! Please return to the family centered programming and don't just try to score high in #s competing with other networks who have no values
Thank you for your attention - i love TVLAND

Bye TVLand
I shouldn't have to explain to my kids what a blow job is while we're watch Andy Griffith. Unforgivable! Looks like I'm not alone either!!! You should fire the guy that approved Teachers.

TV Land's Vulgar Shows and Commercials
I choose not to watch the shows "Teachers" and "Younger" because of the vulgar content, however, I will soon be forced to turn off your channel completely. In fact, I am quite disappointed that these shows are on what used to be your family friendly channel. As I was watching Andy Griffith this afternoon with my teenage son, the 2 commercials for Teachers were degrading and offensive, discussing anal bleaching and blow jobs. I am sure you find this amusing, but I and many others do not. If it happens one more time, I will no longer watch ANYTHING on your channel, I will block it. Which is really a shame, it used to be one of the few channels that I could watch without needing to turn the channel during the commercials. But no longer, you have sunk to the level of most other channels. Beware - you are about to lose many of your current customers! And perhaps your current advertisers, as well!

What Has Happened To TV Land
After watching Andy Griffith on TV Land this past week something has come to my attention: Whoever decided to give the green light on such shows as Younger & Teachers clearly was not in their right mind. If you take a peek at TV Land's Twitter handle page, you will see a banner featuring both shows Younger & Teachers splashed across your page praising the shows with tweets claiming that "the new TV Land is edgy" TV Land was never meant to be edgy. I don't see how such a timeless wholesome classic show like Andy Griffith can coexist with a network that is talking out of both sides of their mouth trying to win two major demographics: the young adults & the senior citizens. While for the most part the commercials geared towards senior citizens don't bother me I usually change the channel and see what the latest election news is on FOX News then change back because Andy Griffith is back on.
I am a part of the younger demographic who apparently is in love with your new edgy style. I for one am not. I cannot believe that a commercial for the show Teachers using the language that they used was on then. Don't you people know that The Andy Griffith Show is watched by people with children? I am an adult and even I was disgusted by the ethics used not only in that commercial but in the way the child actors are being exposed to at the expense of being on a primetime television show. Don't get me started on your Younger show either. These shows are an example of how low we have come. May I also mention that in the ending credits of Full House on Nick at Nite there was a lovely commercial for RuPaul's Drag Queen show?! What is happening America! Wake up people!

Sin City or Shock & AWE is TVLAND
The TV Shows of today are so bad on TVLAND. The Teachers & Impastor TV Shows are very inappropriate shows for the general audience. They belong on adult pay channels for sure and not accessible to children or adults. My family does not care for this crap way to trashy for us. And what do you think you are teaching the younger genartaion like they don't have enough to worry about growing up today.. And the commericals are just as bad im about ready to block TV LAND forever...i thought TVland was a wonderful channel an in the last few years it has gone down the drian... there are no morals on TV shows of today anymore. It is all about Trashy an Shock & AWE you should change the name to Sin City. And sadly great shows are in the mix of this trash...i will buy the DVD sets i love that are clean and Wholesome an block TVLand from here out...........

Dukes of hazzard
I grew up watching dukes of hazzard every day after school and never once did the confederate flag mean anything more than dedication to recognizing our nations history. Never once was it racial I have black, Asian and Muslim friends. To say that dukes of hazzard had anything to do with racism is ridiculous after all the had a friend who was black that was also on the show at times!

No More Teachers
As an adult with no children, I have no problem with your show "Younger." In fact, I look forward to watching each week. On the other hand, your show "Teachers" has to be the worst show I have ever seen. The show is not funny, and I'm sure if teachers really acted like this, they would be fired. Sorry, but TV Land gets turned off every Wednesday night at 10:30. Your commercial saying that Teachers will be back for a second season because it is so popular is sad. I haven't found one person who likes it. You're ruining your reputation!

Teachers and Younger are NOT family friendly shows!!
TV Land use to be one of our favorite family channels to watch. I am apolled at the disgusting, filthy, far from family friendly sitcoms that are now allowed on this channel. My family and I cannot sit down and watch thru a solid episode of Andy Griffith, Bonanza etc...without having to mute or change the channel because of the very inappropriate advertising for Younger and Teachers! You should be ASHAMED TV LAND for allowing such stuff to be on a so called "family" channel! You take the Dukes of Hazard off because of the rebel flag but you have no problem allowing nudity, foul language and degrading shows like this. Its very upsetting to be watching a good family show like Andy Griffith only to see one of these advertisements showing a naked "School Teacher" running thru the children's play ground not to mention the cursing and inappropriate dialogue and your child sitting beside you hearing and seeing this. We now DVR everything so we can fast forward thru this unacceptable junk!!! If your going to continue to b be a "family" friendly channel then you need some major editing and changing of what you call family friendly shows!

Commercials
The amount of commercials make the station unwatchable. Don't watch TV Land much anymore because of that. Antenna TV and MeTv much better options. Commercials are held to a minimum on those channels. I don't know who is running the show for TV Land but they need to pay attention to these reviews. People were complaining about the amount of commercials 4 years ago.

Commercials, programs
Way too many commercials and not enough old shows that are clean. The new ones today, you can throw in the trash and leave them all there. Bring back the older shows that we all enjoy so much. You are showing the golden girls in the morning along with several others at the same time. There are so many great older shows out there that are so much better than the trash you are starting to show, like teachers, younger and crap like that. Read what others are posting here and take some action other wise you are going to lose people pretty quick. I thought this was a family place so that the family can sit down and relax and enjoy some laughs ?? What happened to you with 1/2 hour commercials and 5 minutes of the show ??

Enough Reba!
Why oh why do you fill half of every day if your schedule with Reba? Enough! Love the other shows but so sick of this filler. And absolutely refuse to watch your 36 minutes shows that are now 50% commercials. Hopefully this will stop soon.

Seriously.
First I ask, "Why is there no contact information available for TV Land Network?" Then, I answer my own question. "Ah ha! Because they suck and would never have the manpower available to field ALL the billion & one complaints about their poor excuse for a cable network."
TV Land Network - If you see this:
#1 Your original shows are SO bad (I can tell from the commercials), I would never waste one minute of my time watching them.
#2 Why are all of your commercials for your aforementioned horrible original shows?
#3 Do you have no shame?
#4 The only thing I watch on TV Land is "King of Queens" and still I am affected by your awful network, because I have to endure the commercials.
#5 Again, you Suck.

No George Lopez
I do not like George Lopez and I'm not happy
With it replacing Everybody loves Raymond
I watch Everybody loves Raymond every day
And I look forward to it. I don't like all these new shows that are coming on. I think you should stick with the classic shows and good programming. If you want something new put on a new classic not the trash you have in the past.

Too trashy!
TVland has gotten trashy with the new programming. Please keep shows such as Everybody loves Raymond and Reba. They are quality tv that is funny. Lopez (new & the old one) is not funny& should not have replaced Raymond!

Myself and many of my friends are so turned off by your new programming. I loved watching Golden Girls, The Middle, Reba and more family themed shows in fact you WERE my favorite channel. I cannot stand the sight of that drunk nasty George Lopez and every single commercial have to see him and listen to him swear. Not a channel I can watch anymore with family. I don't believe you will care but you are losing a ton of viewers. Freeform and Hallmark will be my go-to now. Such a shame....will buy Everybody Loves Raymond on DVD set. Adios..you can show that nasty man all you want

Gunsmoke re-re-re-runs
What is it with re-running the same few episodes for two years running. I mean day after day after day: the same. Especially when there are 600 episodes from which to choose. Sooooo lame.

TV Land and Lopez
Your station continues to go down hill. I originally watched to view 50's and 60's b&w tv hits. You constantly delete more and more of these shows from your lineup. I lose interest in your station as time goes by. And now,you have that moronic George Lopez who gladly takes our American dollars (with his lousy show) and states he will move from the U.S, if Trump becomes President. It's fine by me if he goes. Let him go now because his statement was the final reason I needed to not watch your station anymore.

TV Land Has Become Trash
TV Land has become trash lately. They have a show for George Lopez. Lopez is the worst, he is not funny, he's crude, he's racist and he makes a living off of stereotypes. Lopez has the same jokes you would find on a playground, he must have a really low IQ. And Nick At Night shows his old sitcom too. Both channels should cancel George Lopez and take them off their channels.
I remember when TV Land and Nick at Night used to have classy shows and old sitcoms. Those were the days.
