TV Land Extends Three's Company Mini Marathon to 24-Hour Marathon, for 30th Anniversary; Nick at Nite Notes

The Three's Company Mini-Marathon on TV Land scheduled for Saturday, March 17 from 11pm-2am, with an encore on Sunday, March 18 from 8-11pm, now has now been extended to a 24-hour marathon from 8pm March 17 to 8pm March 18--just in time for the show's 30th anniversary! Two episodes each of both spin-off series, The Ropers and Three's a Crowd, will also air in the early morning hours. Also airing in the early morning hours on Sunday are the two unaired pilots for Three's Company. See the show before Suzanne Somers joined. Joyce DeWitt is not in the first pilot either. John Ritter, Norman Fell and Audra Lindley were all in both unaired pilots, though. For episode info for this marathon, check out the On TV section at my Three's Company website: Jack's Bistro.

Meanwhile, Nick at Nite has changed the date for The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air Marathon labeled, "The Freshest Week Ever" from March 12-18 to March 11-17. No reason for the change, but it will still be all Fresh Prince, all night long (9p-6a). Joseph Marcell (the show's butler) is hosting.
Also, a second nightly Growing Pains will be added to every night at 1am starting Friday, March 9. The mini-marathons now will be 1:30-5:30am every night and Growing Pains will still air in its earlier slot (Sun-Thu 9:30 and Fri-Sat 10:30). The 1am airing will NOT be an encore of the earlier airing. There will be two episodes a night. So, watch both!
