Bewitched Coming to Antenna TV, Launches with Marathon and They Want Your Bewitched Trivia for On-Air Promos; The CW Picks Up Sitcom

Bewitched is coming to Antenna TV later this fall and to help launch the sitcom, Antenna TV will present an all-day Bewitched "Witch-o-ween" Marathon on Wednesday, October 30, 2013! We'll have more information on that marathon very soon, along with the complete Antenna TV Fall 2013 schedule, but we wanted to let you know you can help Antenna TV during this marathon by giving cool Bewitched facts and trivia! If they are really good, your response could make it on-air during the Bewitched marathon on October 30 during promos! How magical! These facts and trivia can be anything about Bewitched or its actors, so feel free to post on our message board thread! You can also post on our Facebook thread. But before you send your bewitching trivia, after you type in your trivia, let us know your first name and the first initial of your last name along with your city, state (i.e. Jack T. from Santa Monica CA). And if your trivia gets mentioned on-air, who knows we might send you some goodies as a token of our appreciation! So for example, a trivia post would be something like this: "The series had five Halloween episodes during its eight-season run. (Pavan P. from Linden, NJ)"



The deadline to post trivia will be Sunday, Sept. 15, 2013 at 11:59pm ET, so hurry and post your trivia facts today (message board / Facebook). There isn't much time left, so get to it before Endora casts a spell on you for not submitting fast enough! And come on back for the Antenna TV Fall 2013 schedule that will be starting in November 2013 with the addition of Bewitched and a few other new additions, including I Dream of Jeannie! Antenna TV -- TV How It Was Meant To Be!



Seed

Continuing to add more original programming to its primetime schedule, The CW Network has licensed the U.S. broadcast rights for the half-hour original comedy series Seed from leading independent studio Entertainment One (eOne). After premiering on the Canadian television network City in February and becoming the network's highest rated original comedy series to date, the critically acclaimed Seed will make its U.S. premiere on The CW later this season. From the creative team of Joseph Raso and award-winning writer/producer Mark Farrell (Corner Gas), Seed tells the story of Harry (Adam Korson), a single, underachieving bachelor/bartender who is also a sperm donor. Harry reluctantly begins a relationship with three unique and separate recipient families - a laid-back lesbian couple with a 9-year-old son, a neurotically hopeful single mom-to-be, and an uptight, upper-class family with a rebellious teenage daughter - with whom he'll come to share more than just his DNA. Stay with us for more information and of course when they set a premiere date for this comedy!
