FETV Acquires The Munsters Effective September 29; Apple TV+ The Morning Show Renewed for Season 5

The Munsters

FETV (Family Entertainment Television), home to beloved and timeless television series and movies carried across cable, satellite, and virtual platforms, announced that The Munsters will join the network's programming lineup starting Monday, September 29, 2025. The show will begin in its regular time slot at 2pm ET weekdays. From October 6-10, 2025, the series will host a Watch & Win Trivia Contest, as well as an all-day "Munsters Mash" marathon on Friday, October 31 - Halloween. As with all series on FETV, The Munsters will air in its original, uncut format.

First unleashed in 1964, The Munsters follows the lovable residents of 1313 Mockingbird Lane—Herman, Lily, Grandpa, Eddie, and the "odd one out," Marilyn—as they prove that being monstrously different is actually frightfully fun. The show ran for 70 episodes on CBS and later found a large audience in syndication, leading to a spinoff series and several feature films.


The Morning Show

Apple TV+ announced that the acclaimed, award-winning global hit drama, The Morning Show, has been renewed for a fifth season ahead of the season four premiere. Set to debut its highly anticipated, star-studded fourth season tomorrow, Wednesday, September 17, 2025, the Emmy, SAG and Critics Choice Award-winning series stars and is executive produced by Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston, alongside showrunner and executive producer Charlotte Stoudt, and director and executive producer Mimi Leder.

Premiering globally today on Apple TV+, season four of The Morning Show opens in spring 2024, almost two years after the events of season three. With the UBA-NBN merger complete, the newsroom must grapple with newfound responsibility, hidden motives and the elusive nature of truth in a polarized America. In a world rife with deepfakes, conspiracy theories and corporate cover-ups - who can you trust? And how can you know what's actually real?

Along with Aniston and Witherspoon, the upcoming fourth season stars two-time Emmy Award winner Billy Crudup, Mark Duplass, Nestor Carbonell, Karen Pittman, Greta Lee, Nicole Beharie and Emmy Award winner Jon Hamm. Season four welcomes new cast members Aaron Pierre, William Jackson Harper, Boyd Holbrook, and Academy Award winners Marion Cotillard and Jeremy Irons.
