* InMemoriam: Whenever a celebrity dies, Antenna TV will preempt their scheduled episode of ''Series/TheTonightShowStarringJohnnyCarson'' and instead air one that featured said performer, as a tribute. For example, on 9/6/18 they aired an episode featuring Creator/BurtReynolds, who had passed away earlier that day.

Added DiffLines:

* AdoredByTheNetwork: Most of the Creator/NormanLear series get a lot of airplay on Antenna TV. In fact, ''Series/GoodTimes'' and ''Series/AllInTheFamily'' are among the few series that haven't left the network since its 2011 launch. Despite their short runs, ''Series/TheMonkees'' and ''Series/{{Gidget}}'' have also had a perma-place on the network's schedule.
* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: One of the best networks to do this. Although it carries several shows that have pretty much never left syndication since they've ended, a few of the shows that Antenna TV has acquired have either only been available in recent years on UsefulNotes/{{DVD}} or home video, or fell into obscurity until the network picked them up.
* KillerApp: When they announced that they would run the Johnny Carson-era episodes of ''Series/TheTonightShow'' starting in 2016, they were rewarded with 26 new affiliates.
* MarathonRunning: Antenna TV frequently airs marathons during major holidays; most notably, New Year's Day marathons of ''Film/TheThreeStooges'', ''Series/TheJackBennyProgram'' and ''Radio/TheBurnsAndAllenShow'' and Father's Day marathons of ''Series/FatherKnowsBest''.
