SitcomsOnline Digest: Season 2 Premiere Date Set for The Righteous Gemstones; Complete Series of The Andy Griffith Show Headed to Blu-ray

Welcome to SitcomsOnline Digest! The week, we're getting some new (and sort of surprising) home media news, hearing of the season two premiere date for an HBO series, and more. Let's get going!

HIGHLIGHTS FROM SITCOMSONLINE.COM AND AROUND THE WEB

  • The Righteous Gemstones finally has a season 2 premiere date. (Deadline)
  • This one is one that we found a bit surprising: the entire series of The Andy Griffith Show is being released on Blu-ray (as a manufacture on demand title) next month. (Blu-ray.com)
  • That isn't all of the home media news, as The Trials of Rosie O'Neill - The Complete Series, an early 90s legal drama starring Sharon Gless, is coming to DVD from VEI. (VEI)
  • The Wonder Years parents Alley Mills and Dan Lauria have reunited again for different roles, but only on Broadway. (Deadline)
  • Even though a lot of cable operators have already dropped it anyway, ESPN Classic is officially going away for good. (CNN)
  • We love a good listing of holiday programming, and Deadline has that. (Deadline)
  • Although the network it airs on has undergone two name changes since it began, the network now known as Freeform is ready for the 25th anniversary of 25 Days of Christmas. (SitcomsOnline)

WEEKLY PLANNER (NOVEMBER 6 - NOVEMBER 12)

  • Decades has a Get Smart binge this weekend.
  • HBO Max has five new classic 90s sitcoms from the WBTV library (Hangin' with Mr. Cooper, In the House, The Jamie Foxx Show, Martin and The Parent'hood) this week, and we can only hope more are coming.
  • The Game, which was developed for UPN, but ended up airing on The CW before moving to BET, returns with a revival on Thursday on Paramount+.
