TNT Should Not Cancel Dallas!, the "DALLAS TNT FAN GROUP" on Facebook Speaks out

On September 23rd 2014 I posted this on "Dallas TNT Fan Group



I just posted this on Dallas TNT and TNT Facebook page:

You know if you move Dallas to a better time slot like Friday night, it is possible it would get better ratings,Dallas is a great show, but why are you making it compete with Monday Night Football and other mainstream popular shows. TNT needs to build the audience not demand it. Come on TNT be fare!

It had a over whelming response from other Dallas Fans, they had this to say in the comments


Laure
yep that's right.they should've left it on Wednesdays instead of switching it to Mondays and I bet it would've been fine


Dianne
I agree all the way around Friday night would be a much better night

These networks either need to pay attention to the fan base they want when scheduling to make sure the fan base isn't already claimed or accept the fact there's not going to be huge numbers when up against juggernauts. Last spring season I had 4 shows that were all on at 9 on Mondays. Dallas won out for watching live but still... Wednesday nights seem to be my slow TV nights. Or even Sunday nights after 9. Still ticked they put The Librarians against Once Upon a Time. Again, same fan base.

Now don't be silly puttin it on Friday would kill it for sure . That's when everyone gets paid n is out n about. They could move the time up like to seven n it would do a lot better.

Friday night,,,just like the old Dallas shwos....well it didn't really compete with MNF as football season just started a few weeks ago

Beth

Yeah, Friday's would be good, that way I don't have to fight my husband over the remote every Monday. He likes to watch Fast and Loud, but of coarse I always WIN! I have to have my Dallas fix.

I remember the "Dukes of Hazzard" came on at 9:00 and "Dallas" at 10:00 until 1981 when "Falcon Crest" got the 10:00 slot and the other two shows were moved an hour earlier. "Knots Landing" was on Thursday at 10:00 and "Dynasty" was on ABC on Wednesdays at 9:00. For awhile, "The Colby's" was on at 10:00 after "Dynasty. During the 80's, there was a primetime soap on every weeknight for many years and then we were left with "knots Landing." So, #DALLAS belongs on Friday nights

Brad

Now we're stuck with a bunch of crappy reality shows while great primetime dramas continue to get cancelled

Starla

Sadly ppl are watching the reality shows. It may work on Fridays now it may not. Bluebloods and that other cbs show have a nice following that night. With the dvr I dont see the day matters much.

There are plenty more comments you can read at the Dallas TNT Fan Group, But agree or disagree with Friday night, it is clear that TNT  needs to rethink what night to broadcast Dallas. TNT says it's about drama, then they need to be about Drama for people who like TV programs and less about how to compete with the other networks. TNT will have their fan base if they just stick to there audience. TNT has some great shows, and they are not afraid to stretch the imagination. For one final time I ask TNT

PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL DALLAS!
