'Mama's Family' Launch Marathon on i; WGN Fall 2006 Schedule

On Friday we mentioned that the i network will be adding Green Acres and Mama's Family on Monday, August 14. Now they have made it official that Mama's Family will launch with a three-hour marathon on Saturday, August 12 from 8 to 11 p.m. ET/PT! Click here for episode info.
UPDATE: We also have gotten word they will give Green Acres a Saturday marathon, too! The Green Acres marathon will be on Saturday, August 26 from 8 to 11 p.m. ET/PT! Click here for episode info.

WGN has announced its fall 2006 schedule. They will be adding Even Stevens, Lizzie McGuire, Scrubs, Homicide: Life on the Street, among others. Sadly, Happy Days will be off the line-up, but not to fear they still have rights to it. The Cosby Show is only going to air late nights (early mornings, actually). And The Beverly Hillbillies, Home Improvement & Moesha will still be on twice a weekday! To see the full line-up click here. You can also discuss that line-up there, too.
Tomorrow we will release ABC Family's September schedule and highlights. They are getting rid of Jetix (the morning animation block), so you will see sitcoms replace it! Could there be a Hogan Family sighting? Come tomorrow to find out!

So what will ABC air 9 and 9:30 p.m. on Tuesdays? ABC will air more According to Jim at both 9 p.m & 9:30 p.m. Sorry to fans of Rodney and Less than Perfect...I guess we will either have to wait for syndication or DVDs to see unaired episodes of those shows. Jim will now air 4 times each Tuesday until Sept. 12, when Dancing with the Stars takes over.
