SitcomsOnline Digest: Relive (Most of) the 90s TGIF Lineup on Hulu; NBC Renews Marlon

Welcome to SitcomsOnline Digest! It may be Saturday, but we have news this week that will make every single day a Friday night in the 90s this week. Additionally, we're hearing about a renewal for a NBC summer series and more. Let's get going!

HIGHLIGHTS FROM SITCOMSONLINE.COM AND AROUND THE WEB
  • Today may be Saturday, but you can relive all of the hits of the 90s TGIF lineup seven days a week now thanks to Hulu, as they've not only added the Warner Bros. TGIF series (although we wish they had also included the forgotten stepchild of the TGIF lineup Just the Ten of Us) but also added in a bonus by adding Boy Meets World, Dinosaurs, and the non-TGIF series Home Improvement. (Entertainment Weekly)
  • NBC will be bringing Marlon back for a second season. (Deadline)
  • Megyn Kelly made her debut on Today this week, and the reception has been poor from critics, viewers, and even her own guests, including Debra Messing of Will & Grace publicly stating that she regretted going on the series earlier in the week and didn't know the cast reunion would be during Megyn Kelly's hour. (Deadline) 
  • ABC World News Tonight has dethroned a twenty year streak that NBC Nightly News had for being the most watched, but then again, national broadcast news isn't watched nearly as much as it used to be. (LA Times)
  • Tim Allen is still adamant that his political beliefs got Last Man Standing cancelled. (Chicago Tribune)
  • Young Sheldon has already been picked up for a full season. (SitcomsOnline)

Who to Follow: Elliot Gould (Twitter), "Actor. Producer. Father. Grandfather. Animal lover."
Claim to Fame: Elliot Gould is far from a new face in the entertainment world. At age 79, is an accomplished actor who has been appearing in movies for over five decades, and won many awards. So far, though, television hasn't gone well for him. He starred in the sitcom E/R, and that didn't go well. He did well with recurring roles on series including Friends and Kim Possible, but then he went back to trying being a regular again on Mulaney (which didn't last long), and even worse the CBS drama Doubt (which was canceled very quickly). But now, he is trying to find his small screen success once again in the upcoming CBS sitcom 9JKL, which debuts Monday.
Pick of the Tweets: "Hello everybody. I am really happy to take this journey on social media and to communicate with everybody out there." (January 26, 2017)
