TV Land Remember Al Lewis; Sitcom Stars Invade Season 2 of Nick@Nite's Hi-Jinks
Sitcom actors are joining the fun on Nick@Nite's fun filled hidden camera show--Hi-Jinks! Hi-Jinks is back for another season starting Tuesday, February 28. The series' next thirteen episodes- in which adults play good-natured pranks on kids -- of all ages -- is being produced by Stone & Company Entertainment, with Leila Sbitani returning as host. Each week features a celebrity prank segment in which famous faces use their talents to play tricks on bewildered tikes. This season, actors Alan Thicke (Growing Pains), Jane Seymour (Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman), Jon Cryer (Two and a Half Men) and Tichina Arnold (Everybody Hates Chris), as well as sports stars Evander Holyfield and Tony Hawk are among the celebrities who have conspired with parents to prank kids. For full details click here.
Finally we leave you tonight with some history. 90.72 million tuned in last night for Super Bowl XL. That marks the highest rating since 1996, when the Cowboys were actually a great team. Who knew the Steelers-Seahawks could draw such a crowd for Super Bowl XL! Following the game was ABC's red hot series Grey's Anatomy. Grey's scored 38.1 million viewers. The highest rated post-Super Bowl programming since 2001 and the third highest in the last 18 years. Part 2 of that cliff-hanger episode airs next Sunday. Hopefully they can sustain 30 million viewers a week.
