Nick@Nite Nixes Last Night of 'Designing Women' Marathon Tonight; Tyra Banks Talks to Former Child Stars; TV Land and Yahoo! TV Team Up For 'Fool'

The Designing Women marathon has been cut short on Nick@Nite. Tonight, the last night, will be replaced with an extended marathon of Roseanne from 10p-2a, then the scheduled marathon from 2a-6a. Maybe the ratings were not good it seems. If you like the show, I suggest you start watching Mon-Sat at midnight, or the show will probably get pished to 4 a.m. or something.
UPDATE: Sister station TV Land has added more weekly encores for I Pity the Fool. They have also added a weekend marathon of Sanford & Son the weekend of October 14-15. Full details are in the October update.

Former child stars are coming on Tyra tomorrow. Actors Dustin Diamond (Saved by the Bell), Danielle Fishel (Boy Meets World), Jonathan Lipnicki (Jerry Maguire), Jaimee Foxworth (Family Matters) and Ian Ziering (Beverly Hills, 90210) set the record straight on rumors, scandals and shocking developments in their lives. Don't miss the action tomorrow (Friday), check local listings for time and channel in your area. In NY, it airs at 5 p.m. on WWOR.

TV Land and Yahoo! TV announced that the premiere installment of the network's original series I Pity The Fool, starring Mr. T, will debut exclusively on Yahoo! TV (http://tv.yahoo.com) on Thursday, October 5, a week before its on-air debut on TV Land. The show will be available in its entirety on Yahoo! for six days.
