Minor Lifetime Schedule Change; Network Fall Preview Specials

Effective yesterday Lifetime made a few minor changes to its line-up. Most notably it removed Unsolved Mysteries off the line-up. It was airing at 2 p.m. now the afternoon movie will start then. The movie was airing 3 to 5 p.m., so now it will be 2-4 p.m. They have now added an extra hour of The Golden Girls in the 4 p.m. hour. Everything else is the same as the schedule that started August 7.

We are almost a month away from the official start of the fall season. The networks are or have been airing half-hour fall preview specials. Fox aired its fall primetime preview special on Sunday at 7 p.m., but if you missed it, your local Fox affiliates are airing it again this weekend. Check your local Fox listings for exact times. Tonight, My NetworkTV will have two half-hour specials on Desire and Fashion House--check your local listings for the times in your area. They also will have a launch special on Sept. 4 from 8 to 10 p.m. The CW Premiere Special premieres this weekend on your local CW affiliate. Keep checking your CW affiliate's weekends listings for the next few weekends, so you can see it. NBC has been airing its fall preview specials on local NBC affiliates already, but they will have one to the full NBC network on Saturday, September 2 at 8 p.m. You can also catch it on USA Network, Sci-Fi Channel, Bravo, and your local NBC affiliates at various other times, again check your local listings. CBS will have its fall preview special on Saturday, September 2 at 9:30 p.m. following a special 90-minute Museum of Television & Radio special. Finally, ABC will have two half-hour specials on Desperate Housewives & Grey's Anatomy. Both will also have previews of other shows, so make sure to tune in. They will air on your local ABC affiliates in the coming weeks, so check your listings for the time and day. If you can't find it, it will air on the ABC Family Channel on Friday, Sept. 15 in the 4 p.m. hour. I hope you are all ready for the fall!
