Laff Acquires Matthew Perry and Will Arnett Sitcoms; Lisa Whelchel Returns for MeTV Series
Laff has acquired two recent sitcoms. The Odd Couple revival starring Matthew Perry and The Millers starring Will Arnett will air Monday-Saturday starting today (March 4). Both sitcoms will air back-to-back in the 11AM hour. The Odd Couple aired for three seasons on CBS from 2015-17 and starred Matthew Perry as endearing slob Oscar Madison and Thomas Lennon as uptight neat freak Felix Unger, two former college buddies who become unlikely roommates after the demise of their marriages. It's not long after Oscar lets Felix move in that Oscar fears he's made a monumental mistake. However, despite how exasperated they make each other, these mismatched friends agree they can help each other move on from their divorces and somehow make this crazy living arrangement work. The Millers aired for two seasons on CBS from 2013-15 and starred Will Arnett as Nathan Miller, a recently divorced local roving news reporter looking forward to living the singles' life until his parents' marital problems unexpectedly derail his plans.
MeTV's Collector's Call is back this April for Season 5. Since its premiere, we've watched Lisa Whelchel visit collectors with treasure troves of memorabilia from KISS, Barbie, Doctor Who, spy gadgets, and more. Now with a brand-new fifth season, Lisa is back to explore more incredible collections — and offer them a tempting trade! Lisa Whelchel, fondly remembered for her role as Blair on The Facts of Life, returns as the host for the fifth season, which arrives on MeTV on Sunday, April 7 at 6:30P | 5:30C! In each half-hour episode, Lisa will go into the home of a collector with an expert appraiser, exploring the treasures each collector has gathered over the years and hearing the stories behind them. Each episode, our collector will be offered a trade between a beloved item of their collection and a brand-new coveted trophy. Will they make the trade? It's the collector's call! This season Collector's Call celebrates their milestone hundredth episode and dives into collections celebrating Weird Al, Pearl Jam, pizza, Survivor, and more.
