'Evening Shade' Now on CMT; Facts of Life DVD on May 9?

CMT has gotten rights to the early '90s sitcom Evening Shade starring Burt Reynolds. The show started yesterday and will air weekdays at 6am, 6:30am, 1pm, 1:30pm, 11pm and 11:30pm. It was a last minute addition it seems. We will have more details later. There is word that come March 1 it will only air once per hour in those three hour slots instead of the full hour, as maybe another sitcom or something is coming? Not sure yet.

TVShowsonDVD.com announced today that they have strong word that The Facts of Life will be coming to DVD on May 9. It is is very likely that it will be season one and two set, instead of just season one. Hopefully Sony speeds up Diff'rent Strokes with season three, and has it ready on the same day for a wonderful promotion. If May 9 is the release date, then February 27 would be the announce date. Mark those calendars!
