Back then, I don't think they cared. NOW I think they've got a reason...

Head of the Class (and some others listed here) are Warner Television productions that were licensed to first-run broadcast on ABC. Apparently ABC/Disney did not have syndication rights to some of the shows, so they'd have to be re-licensed from Warner in order to show them on ABC Family/Freeform.

"Disney originally planned to use the channel to show reruns of current ABC programming, although this strategy was hindered by the fact that ABC did not hold syndication rights to all of its programming at the time." (Wikipedia/CondeNast).

That is absolutly true,abc family/freeform never got the rights to any of their programming.
