Mama's Family Coming to MeTV in January; Portlandia Season 6 Launches Jan. 21, 2016

By now the secret is out. Heck, it's no secret at all. Mama's Family is coming to MeTV in the new year. Mama's Family kicks off on MeTV on Monday, January 4 and all six seasons of the 1983-90 sitcom will air on the network. More info is still to come, so stay tuned, but we thought you'd might like to get a teaser news story on this.
