TV Land and Nick@Nite March 2006; Lifetime March 2006

TV Land and Nick@Nite announced their March 2006 schedules. The big event in March always is the annual TV Land Awards Show. Nick@Nite will again air a simulcast of the awards during the premiere. The 4th annual show will air Wednesday, March 22 from 9 to 10:30 p.m. ET/PT. A host has not been announced yet. John Ritter, Brad Garrett, and Cedric the Entertainer were the previous hosts. After the awards ends on TV Land, TV Land will air a special one hour episode of Living in TV Land. Living in TV Land shows the day in the life of a classic TV star. TV Land aired a special a few years ago of Dick Van Patten, it was proven to be popular, so TV Land has now made it into a half-hour series. 6 episodes have been made with William Shatner kicking it off with a one-hour episode. Sherman Hemsley (The Jeffersons, Amen), Barry Williams (Brady Bunch), Adam West (Batman) are among the stars featured.
The other big event in March for TV Land is a viewer's choice 48 hour marathon of the '70s sitcom Sanford & Son. Airing during the weekend of March 4-5, viewers will choose the episodes. Think of your top 96 episodes and vote at tvland.com soon! For complete TV Land March 2006 details, click here.
