Why isn't this show broadcast in syndication?
Has it EVER been?
You see so many shows in syndication that were canceled during their first year ... why don't they broadcast this show?
It was on the Bravo Network a few years ago. I think it was on Lifetime before that. They like shows to have at least 100 episodes to get a syndication deal. Moonlighting only had 66 (plus the pilot). But it does seem like a lot of shows that weren't around long are showing up on cable, so you'd think some network would pick up a good show like this.
shareI live in the Phoenix area, and some of the local, independent stations broadast sitcoms in syndication, some of which I have never heard of, that were canceled after less than a year.
shareI used to watch this every day when it came on Bravo. I immediately fell in love with the characters and the unique humor and suspense of the show. I'm so thankful they have since released it on dvd, but I wish it was in syndication like it's revival on Bravo- it's a shame more people won't discover this gem!

Anytime you wanna talk Moonlighting, let me know. I'm always up for some chit chat regarding my favorite show of all time. :)I swear, I watch new shows and enjoy them, but then I'll put on some ML dvds and I realize just how good Moonlighting was/is. I wish there were more episodes for us to enjoy over and over.
shareIn Australia there are reruns of Moonlighting once in while and you know what ? IT SUUUUUUUUCCKKKSS!!!!!!!
The episodes are butchered to within an inch of it's life, some worse than others but it's awful. There have been many times where I turn off the TV cause I can't stand the edits they've made to the show. It's all just to fit in more ads. You have to understand that Moonlighting is a very old show now and is from a time when there were a lot less commercials. Shows were much longer back then and a full-length Moonlighting episode can't fit in todays TV schedule. It's sad but it's true.
FORGET ABOUT SYNDICATION if you want to watch Moonlighting then three letters D-V-D. Best way to watch it!
