'Reba' Returns in November; ABC Family Channel's 25 Days of Christmas Schedule, 'Perfect Strangers' Unaired Pilot?
The ABC Family Channel takes viewers on a journey into winter wonderland with its ninth annual 25 Days Of Christmas programming event. This year features over 200 hours of holiday-themed entertainment for the whole family from December 1-25. Also, in a first for 25 Days Of Christmas, Saturdays and Sundays will be filled from sun up to sun down with up to 17 hours of holiday favorites including Harry Potter and Rankin Bass marathons.
It all kicks off at 7 p.m. on December 1 and you can find the FULL line-up by clicking HERE. You don't want to miss this!
Finally, did you know there is a Perfect Strangers unaired pilot? Yes, there is! I didn't know that, but my good friend Linda Kay has just posted this week's update on her new and wonderful Perfect Strangers website and among the updates this week is info on the unaired pilot. The unaired pilot actually had Louie Anderson playing the role of Lou Appleton. Louie of course was replaced by Mark Linn-Baker, who went on to play Larry Appleton for the series. It would have been very strange to see Louie. I suggest you go to Linda's website because she has much more info and even very rare photos of Louie in the Perfect Strangers unaired pilot. I hope Warner Home Video is listening and brings this show to DVD and with this unaired pilot as an extra! Dig this up for us Warner!
