There has been some confusion over whether Me-TV or other national networks can 
show TAGS.  Me-TV is a national network, just like TVLand.  TVLand currently 
has the exclusive national network rights to TAGS, so Me-TV, RTV, My-TV or 
other national networks have no chance to pick up the series during TVLand's 
contract.
 
All series in syndication can also be licensed to local stations across the 
country, and each local station licensing TAGS has the exclusive rights to show 
TAGS in that local market.  So if Station X in Omaha licenses TAGS, stations Y 
& Z have no chance to get the show until the license expires.
 
"Me Too TV" is an off-shoot of Me-TV, but is operated as a local station rather 
than a national network.  It appears there are only Me Too stations in Chicago 
and Milwaukee.  So if they show TAGS, they are the exclusive carrier for that 
local market....it's as confusing as finding Aunt Bee's spoon on the set of The 
Mayberry Chef!
