MeTV Launches MeTV FM Radio Network in Chicago; Reba Guests on Baby Daddy
Weigel Broadcasting Co., the innovative creators of MeTV Memorable Entertainment Television, announce their latest broadcast venture with the debut of 87.7 MeTV FM. Unique among local radio stations, 87.7 MeTV FM will bring a distinctive "Me Music" sound featuring a deep playlist of classic pop and timeless tracks. 87.7 MeTV FM will be MeTV’s companion for audio format. 87.7 MeTV FM is a unique blend of memorable, timeless and classic pop music that the boomer generation listened to from the 1960s through 1980s. Just as many of MeTV's most popular programs had vanished from the airwaves, replaced with reality shows and exploitative programming, 87.7 MeTV FM's playlist has largely been replaced by artists and genres the massive boomer audience doesn't relate to or connect with. Now MeTV FM 87.7 brings back all the music this generation made their own.
MeTV FM 87.7 Core artists include Carly Simon, James Taylor, The Eagles, Elton John, The Carpenters, Motown superstars, America, Neil Diamond and hundreds more. Now is the time they want to ask listeners to "Think outside Pandora's box," to "modify their Spotify" and be "a little less 'Sirius' with Me... 87.7 MeTV FM." Listeners can email contact@metv.fm to make their song suggestions.
Reba McEntire reunites with Reba costar Melissa Peterman when the music legend guest stars on ABC Family's hit comedy Baby Daddy. Reba will appear in Season 4 of Baby Daddy as Charlotte, Bonnie Wheeler's (Melissa Peterman) best friend and general partner in crime. Having first met in the maternity ward when they were both giving birth, the ladies shared many of life's significant moments. But when Charlotte visits Bonnie in New York, it seems she might not be the supportive friend everyone thinks she is. Reba's episode will air later this year. Baby Daddy stars Jean-Luc Bilodeau, Derek Theler, Tahj Mowry, with Melissa Peterman and Chelsea Kane. The series is created and executive produced by Dan Berendsen (The Nine Lives of Chloe King, Sabrina the Teenage Witch and Hannah Montana: The Movie). Baby Daddy is a multi-camera comedy that shoots in front of a live studio audience in Los Angeles.
