Slight TV Land Changes, TV Land Summer Announcement

We gave you some minor news before that started May 5, with Andy Griffith airing 7-9pm weekdays and M*A*S*H from 11pm-1am weekdays. That will continue in June as well, but June will also see another slight change. Extreme Makeover: Home Edition will move to Wednesdays at 9 starting June 4, leading into episodes of She's Got The Look! She's Got The Look encores will replace Home Makeover's old slot of Saturdays at 11PM. The previous changes announced starting June 2 will still remain in effect. Also, TV Land has removed the originals marathon on Memorial Day (May 26). Instead we get an I Love Lucy marathon from 8am-8pm! For all that and more, please visit the updated TV Land June schedule.
