Classic TV Continues in Chicago; Family Affair to DVD!
I was going to post some of the New York local channel fall schedules today, such as WWOR, but I will hold off on that until tomorrow. So for those who have been waiting for those, please come back tomorrow and sorry for the inconvenience. I have already posted WPIX, so I hope that is good enough for now.I do have some local channel schedule information to post today! I normally do not post other city's local channel schedules, but ME-TV in Chicago is different. It is by far the best local channel in the U.S. currently. They have been airing classic TV since they launched. Their popular "Summer of ME" schedule was so popular, with shows such as The Facts of Life and The Brady Bunch, that some of the summer shows will be staying on their line-up, while adding some new ones for the fall such as Fantasy Island, Good Times and Eight is Enough. To view their excellent line-up, please visit here.
And the '60s sitcom coming to DVD is ... Family Affair! Get ready in early 2006 for Buffy, Jody, Cissy, and the rest for a wonderful celebration, as Family Affair approaches 40 years of excellence. MPI is releasing the series on DVD and they have been doing a wonderful job on their sets for Doris Day, The Beverly Hillbillies and Petticoat Junction. Each of those sets are filled with lots of bonus material, so I'm sure Family Affair will be, too. I don't know yet if it will be a first season release or volume release, but I'm suspecting the season release. As always, wait until TVShowsonDVD.com announces it, to make it official.
