AmericanLife TV January Highlights; More 'Mama' on CMT; Spike Re-Adds 'A-Team'

The network for baby boomers, AmericanLife TV has given out their January highlights that feature classic guest stars on each night of the week! Highlights include Combat!'s Pilot Episode, Emmy-nominated episodes of I'll Fly Away and Homefront, and guest appearances by The Beverly Hillbillies' Jed and Jethro on Maverick and 77 Sunset Strip. And if that's not enough for you, catch an episode of the sitcom The Courtship of Eddie's Father, which features astronaut L. Gordon Cooper as he prepares for the Apollo 13 mission, later chronicled by Ron Howard in the movie of the same name – but with nobody playing Cooper. After filming this episode, Cooper was replaced on the flight roster and never went on the problem-plagued flight. Cool!!
Click HERE for complete highlights for January 2007 that will make you 'jump' for joy because there is even a Gordon Jump (WKRP) sighting on Harry O!

We told you some days back that CMT is airing Mama's Family on Dec. 30 and Jan 2 & 3, now we have learned of even MORE dates for Mama! Mama's Family will also air on Monday, January 8 from 5 to 7 p.m. & 11 p.m. to 2 a.m. and on Tuesday, January 9 from 8 to 10 p.m. We will keep you up to date if we hear of any more airings! Catch them all when you can!

Spike TV will re-add The A-Team to weekday mornings at 9 a.m. ET/PT starting January 2, replacing Blind Date. Also, starting Jan. 2, the network will add its new acquisition Star Trek Voyager to weekdays at 5 & 6 p.m. Star Trek: The Next Generation will now be 3 & 4 p.m., with Star Trek Deep Space 9 still at 2 p.m. The Equalizer, which was airing at 10 a.m., seems to be gone. Another episode of World's Wildest Police Videos has replaced it. I don't know when that happened, though.
