Antenna TV and Rewind TV Spring 2022 Schedules; Starz Comedy Blindspotting Gets More Stars

My Favorite Martian

As we mentioned a few months back, My Favorite Martian is joining the Antenna TV line-up this spring. The series starts on Monday, May 2, airing weekdays at 12pm & 12:30pm ET (replacing McHale's Navy) and Saturdays at 11:00pm & 11:30pm ET (replacing That Girl). There are some other changes as well, most notably The Jeffersons getting a second hour in primetime on weeknights, now airing 8-10pm ET, shifting Barney Miller to 11pm-12am. And Alice also gets shifted to 1-2am, replacing Archie Bunker's Place, which is off of the weekday line-up (it will still air weekend mornings). The rest of the schedule on weekdays will remain the same, but weekends get more time shifting changes. Saturdays from 12-4pm changs a bit with a second hour of The Partridge Family now from 12-1pm, Three's Company from 1-2pm, One Day at a Time from 2-3pm and Benson from 3-4pm. This means Welcome Back, Kotter and Too Close for Comfort are off of the weekend schedule, but will still air weekdays. In addition, The Ropers and Three's a Crowd are now off the line-up completely. Sundays will see more changes than any other day. 1-4pm block is now: back-to-back Father Knows Best, One Day at a Time and Benson. Then from 6pm-4am, is a new schedule with Dear John kicking it off from 6-7pm, then four episodes in a row of Family Ties, Wings, Becker and Soap from 7pm-3am (Wings and Becker return to Antenna, but still air on sister network Rewind TV). One Day at a Time encore is now 3-4am. View and discuss the full Antenna TV spring schedule.

Moving on to sister network Rewind TV. The changes for the spring are minor. There are no changes to the line-up on weekdays or Saturdays. Minor changes on Sunday are: Becker added to Sundays from 5-7am and Head of the Class added to Sundays from 7-9pm, as Family Ties will now air 7-9pm on sister network Antenna TV on Sundays.
