SitcomsOnline Digest: The Conners Getting Ready for Syndication; Game Shows a Hit for ABC

 Welcome to SitcomsOnline Digest! This week, we're hearing about a (sort of) long running broadcast sitcom heading to syndication, some Jeopardy! fall updates, and more. Let's get going!

HIGHLIGHTS FROM SITCOMSONLINE.COM AND AROUND THE WEB

  • The Conners looks to be heading to syndication in 2024, which it is honestly kind of surprising that it is just now happening. (Variety)
  • Jeopardy! plans for the fall are in jeopardy, so to speak, as the executive producer grapples with how to handle the WGA strike. (Deadline)
  • Johnny Hardwick, the voice of Dale on King of the Hill (and who was also set to return for the reboot), has died at age 64. (TMZ)
  • Jodie Sweetin isn't too thrilled that a new movie that she is starring in was sold to Great American Family. (TVLine)
  • Game shows are proving to be very successful for ABC lately, perhaps more than they'd hoped. (Deadline)
  • We told you a few weeks ago about how Suits has bizarrely become a huge deal in streaming media, setting records for viewership even, and it seems that the climb to the top hasn't even stopped. (Deadline)
  • Quincy, M.E. is headed to FETV. (SitcomsOnline)

WEEKLY PLANNER (AUGUST 12 - AUGUST 18)

  • Catchy Comedy, with a binge of The Honeymooners this weekend, including lost episodes.
