Lifetime Brings Reba Back To Primetime; Greatest American Hero Marathon on Syfy on July 4

For the first time since last summer, Reba is coming back to primetime on Lifetime! Effective Monday (June 7), Lifetime is making time changes to their entire line-up from 8am-9pm. No series are leaving or joining the schedule, but every show in that time block will be shifting its slots. Reba was airing weekday mornings from 8-10am, but now starting Monday it will air weekdays from 7-9pm. Replacing Reba in the mornings is an hour each of Will & Grace and Frasier from 8-10am. Desperate Housewives will move its block to 10am-1pm, instead of the current 3pm-6pm. Grey's Anatomy moves its three-hour tour to 1pm-4pm instead of the current 6pm-9pm. And finally Wife Swap moves its three-hour block to 4pm-7pm instead of 12pm-3pm. Everything else after 9pm is the same as it is now, but Grey's Anatomy gets a two-hour primetime block on Tuesday nights from 9-11pm.
It looks like Wife Swap is doing well and Reba is needed again as maybe Desperate Housewives and Grey's Anatomy haven't done too well, though they have been airing in the same slots since the fall so maybe a change was needed.
Hopefully Lifetime adds some more sitcoms to its schedule soon. For now view the full Lifetime June 2010 schedule.

Believe it or not The Greatest American Hero is going to get a marathon on Syfy! The series has not aired nationally since 1983! Syfy celebrates America's birthday with a 20-hour July 4 marathon of the cult classic The Greatest American Hero, which hasn't been seen on national television since its original network run in 1983. The holiday celebration airs Sunday, July 4, from 9AM-5AM (ET/PT).
Featuring a most unlikely superhero, The Greatest American Hero aired from 1981-83 on ABC, starring William Katt, Robert Culp and Connie Selleca.
And before we get any questions, later this year Syfy will run its traditional New Year's Twilight Zone marathon. So not to worry Twilight Zone fans!
Stay with us for episode info for the marathon, as the series will air 20 episodes from the 45 episode run.
