In2TV Month Six Episodes for Sitcoms

We don't have the final ratings numbers yet for this past week (probably because of the holiday weekend), so we will just not do the numbers at all for this past week. But we have our monthly In2TV post today! Thanks goes to Todd yesterday for two great mini-reviews and for giving me a day off. I will have another day off tomorrow as Todd previews the two new sitcoms debuting this week on Fox. We will have reviews from the pilot episode from skees53 of both of those sitcoms, too. So, hope you all will check in with us tomorrow on Labor Day. Have a nice Labor Day, and I will see you all Tuesday, but please come back tomorrow!

It's time to change some episodes for In2TV! The way it works is that they'll have 10 total episodes available each month. Every month, 5 of the 10 will be replaced with new 5 new episodes--so make sure you watch the 10 episodes each month, because you never know which 5 episodes they will replace the following month. This month they will be adding Gilligan's Island, Kirk, Police Academy: The Series, The D.A., The Office (1995) and Real Gilligan's Island. They are also adding two Godzilla movies: King of Monsters and Godzilla Raides Again. And Head of the Class returns after a few months off. Sadly, no new episode for Chico and the Man this month, though. More info on that below.

Note: Remember, five episodes from the previous month will remain, so that is how there will be ten episodes available each month. We do not know which five of each will remain, so it is up to you to watch them all.

Criteria for the episodes:
-- "Starchives" - Episodes featuring stars before they were stars, including Brad Pitt on Growing Pains, and Jay Leno on Alice
-- "Classic Creme de la Creme" - Showcase of the most memorable episodes of a given series
-- "StarFavs" - Stars' favorite episodes

And I'm sure the rest are randomly picked.
Remember these are just the sitcom episodes. The rest of the series for month six are: Adventures of Brisco County Jr., Babylon 5, Beetlejuice, Dark Justice, Eight is Enough, The F.B.I., Falcon Crest, Freakazoid, Freddy's Nightmares, The Fugitive, Histeria!, Kung Fu, La Femme Nikita, Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman, Maverick, The New Adventures of Batman, Pinky and the Brain, Scarecrow and Mrs. King, Sisters, Spenser: For Hire, V, Wonder Woman. Recently In2TV added Elimidate, Change of Heart, Moral Court, People's Court, and The Will (Get Real TV); Max Headroom, (Gone But Not Forgotten TV), and Adventures of Superman, Superboy (Superman TV)! In2TV added Presidio Med, Against the Grain, Prince Street and Monkey'd Minutes, New York Daze, Thieves, Off Centre and Our Gang comedies recently. New series joining In2TV this month are Kirk, Police Academy: The Series, The D.A., Gilligan's Island, The Office (1995), and The Real Gilligan's Island.

Currently, there are well over thirty classic series on In2TV. There will be hundreds more very soon. Some of the shows we can for sure expect sometime this year are: My Sister Sam, The Hogan Family (LOL TV); Bret Maverick, Freedom, Guns of Paradise, High Performance, Hunter, Kung Fu: The Legend Continues, O'Hara, Pointman, Profiles from the Front Line, Pros & Cons, The Flash, Young Maverick (Rush TV); Flamingo Road, Our House, The Yellow Rose (Dramarama TV); Taz-Mania, The Zeta Project (Toontopia TV); Crusade, Night Visions, Prey, Time Trax, Wizards & Warriors (Heroes & Horrors TV). All of these will not join all at once of course, they will be brought in slowly, but all these are expected at some point during this year.
