MeTV Network Makes Spring Change; Freeform Orders Pilot from Paul Feig

The MeTV Network is making some minor changes in March. The rarely seen fourth season of The Twilight Zone — the season with the hourlong episodes — is coming to Sunday nights on MeTV. Hourlong episodes of The Twilight Zone replace Cheers and The Bob Newhart Show at 12AM. It has the perfect partners in Alfred Hitchcock Presents and Night Gallery, Rod Serling's other chilling anthology series. Alfred Hitchcock Presents replaces The Mary Tyler Moore Show and Taxi at 1AM and 1:30AM. Night Gallery replaces The Honeymooners and The Odd Couple at 11PM and 11:30PM on Sunday nights. Additionally, you can watch Night Gallery each weekday, replacing The Donna Reed Show at 5:30AM Eastern. This all begins on March 5. Check out the full schedule for more details.

Freeform

Freeform, Disney's young adult television network, announced a pilot order for the tentatively titled Girls Code, a half-hour women-in-the-workplace comedy from Emmy-nominated executive producer and director Paul Feig (Freaks and Geeks, Spy, Ghostbusters, Bridesmaids) and written and created by Kim Rosenstock. From Paramount Television, Anonymous Content and Feigco Entertainment, the pilot sets up the odd couple partnership between a brazen, self-centered tech CEO and a community-building social entrepreneur who must overcome their many issues with each other in order to co-run a groundbreaking, all-female tech incubator. Feig will also direct the pilot. More info to come, we're sure. Stay tuned.
