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.

They also will air new episodes of original series Hi-Jinks every Tuesday at 9:30 p.m. The other big event is a spring cleaning event featuring Danny Tanner of Full House and Tony Micelli of Who's the Boss?
