Slight Change to TV Land Overnight; AOL's In2TV Update!

TV Land announced today that some last minute (but very small) changes will happen starting this Monday. It will only be late nights. Mon-Fri nights, except Tuesdays (because TV Land airs original encores then) 4-5 a.m. hour will now be another episode of Cheers and the return of Wings, replacing Brady Bunch and Happy Days encores. Initially, this change will only be on Thursday and Friday nights, because during the month of February in that slot on Mondays will be encores of That's What I'm Talking About and on Wednesdays TV Land will air Good Times before and after original That's What I'm Talking About episodes. Elsewhere, TV Land has dropped mini-marathon late nights on weekends. Gunsmoke and Bonanza won't air anymore from 2-4 a.m., they will be replaced by Andy Griffith, Sanford & Son and two more Good Times episodes. To see the changes listed click here.

We are all awaiting the launch of AOL's In2TV! In2TV is of course AOL's new Warner Bros. TV online system, featuring classic TV series not airing on television, such as Perfect Strangers, Welcome Back Kotter, Alice, and more. Originally it was slated to come out last month, but that didn't happen. We have an exclusive for you. The beta version will be out mid-month with the full launch coming in March. So get ready to test the system in a few weeks and then next month we can enjoy our missed shows all over again. We are trying to obtain a list of episodes for each series at launch time. 10 episodes of each series will be available the first month, with more episodes being added later. Stay tuned for more news on this and please don't forget to keep checking the In2TV website!
