TV Land Releases David Steinberg Guests; 'Diagnosis Murder' to Hallmark

TV Land has announced the full guests and dates for all six episodes of their new original series, Sit-down Comedy with David Steinberg. Hosted by legendary comedian, producer and director David Steinberg, this six-episode series -- filmed live in front of an audience -- is a one-on-one comedy forum in which celebrated performers including Mike Myers, Larry David, Martin Short, Bob Newhart, Jon Lovitz and George Lopez open up about their personal lives and careers in entertainment. Nice to see shows past (Bob Newhart) and current (George Lopez) sitcom stars being interviewed. The show will air for six weeks Wednesdays at 10 p.m. starting December 14. To see the full details on when your favorite star will guest star, click here.

We mentioned before that '90s drama Diagnosis Murder, starring a few sitcom stars (Dick Van Dyke, Scott Baio, etc) would be coming in Decmeber to the Hallmark Channel. There has been a slight change to that, but not much. It will premiere Tuesday, January 3 and air weekdays at 12 noon ET. We don't know what else yet, if anything, will be changing on The Hallmark Channel that day. We sure hope so because they have no sitcoms besides M*A*S*H and the programming hasn't changed much in a while. We'll bring you the changes for January as soon as we hear them.

Finally, I also run a webpage on What's Happening!!/What's Happening Now!! and I just gave the website a "familiar" face-lift. To celebrate the return on What's Happening!! nationwide (on TV Land every night at 11 p.m. ET/PT), I thought it would be a good time to do this. It is almost the same design as my Three's Company website. I hope all fans will enjoy it as much as they have for Three's Company. You for sure would want to check out Raj's News Section, Dee's Information (you have to pay a quarter, or she'll tell mama!), Dwyane's DVD Section and of course Rerun's Rerun listings! You'll find that and more on the What's Happening!! & What's Happening Now!! page!
