Nick at Nite will cut their smile a bit short. The Growing Pains marathon on Nick at Nite slated for Feb. 12-18 has now been cut to Feb. 12-16. So, tomorrow is the last night for the marathon. Feb. 17 and Feb. 18 will be a normal schedule that will be used for these two days only. Then starting Feb. 19 a brand new and edited line-up will start, which I will post on the blog tomorrow. So come back tomorrow for that! But in the meantime, click here for more on the cutting short of the Growing Pains marathon. Show Nick at Nite that anger!
