There’s a lot of new stuff going on with Lifetime’s latest original sitcom Sherri, and the October 27 Halloween-themed episode “Stronger” is just one.

The Sherri Shepherd comedy has been earning higher ratings than its former Tuesday-night companion Rita Rocks, and now that Lifetime has shifted that series to Mondays, Sherri is free to air four back-to-back episodes on Tuesdays.

Sophomore Lifetime comedy Rita Rocks moves to a new Monday-night time slot on October 26.

The sitcom previously aired on Tuesdays, following the new Sherri Shepherd comedy Sherri, but apparently the ratings weren’t so swell.

Friday-night Fox sitcoms Brothers and ‘Til Death are taking the day off on October 16, thanks to Major League Baseball and the first game of the American League Championship Series.

But never fear, fans. Both comedies will return with fresh episodes on October 23, same time, same channel. Or at least that’s what the network is saying right now.

Freshman multi-camera sitcom Brothers isn’t doing so swell ratings-wise, but that’s not stopping Fox from airing a fresh episode on Sunday, October 11, at 7pm ET, in addition to the regularly scheduled episode for Friday, October 9.

According to The Futon Critic, the weekend installment, called “Lenny,” replaces an encore episode of the animated series Family Guy.

If you’ve been enjoying ABC Family’s new original sitcom 10 Things I Hate About You, then get happy. Just this week, the network added ten more installments to the rookie comedy’s original ten-episode order.

Unfortunately, the outlook isn’t as rosy for 10 Things‘ fellow frosh summer sitcom Ruby & the Rockits. According to reports, that show not only didn’t receive an order for additional episodes, but it also won’t continue past its initial ten-episode run. You win some, you lose some.

TBS is shuffling the Tyler Perry sitcom Meet the Browns back to its original 10pm ET time slot, starting September 9 with the hour of back-to-back fresh episodes “Meet the Hubby” (10pm) and “Meet the H.B.I.C.” (10:30pm)

On the first of the two Perry-directed installments…

Basic-cable network FX is on a roll these days when it comes to adding new comedy series to its popular primetime lineup.

This week comes word that two new half-hour comedy series will be onboard soon, joining current sitcom staple It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia and the recently picked-up animated spy comedy Archer (pictured above), which features voice work from Jon Benjamin (Important Things with Demetri Martin), Judy Greer (Miss Guided), Chris Parnell (30 Rock), Aisha Tyler (Ghost Whisperer), and Jessica Walter (Arrested Development).

Basic cable’s FX is gearing up to add a slew of comedies to its primetime slate, which currently includes only four-season-old It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

The network has already filmed pilots for two half-hour sitcoms: one currently called Louie, which features comedian Louis C.K. in a series of sketch and standup segments, and the other a half-hour sitcom called The League, which follows a group of men into fantasy football.

Fox has done it again. For the umpteenth time since ‘Til Death first premiered three seasons ago, the network has changed the date that the show will resume airing new episodes.

According to an official press announcement released today, July 28, the latest scheduling shift pushes the sitcom’s fourth-season premiere to October 2 instead of the previously announced September 18.
Yes, it’s just a two-week difference and the comedy will still air on Fridays at 8:30pm ET (as of now), but the frequent movement makes you wonder how much the show will get jerked around (again) when the fall season finally arrives.

Heads up, faithful starved ‘Til Death fans. The Brad Garrett and Joely Fisher sitcom is back on Fox tonight (July 5) at 7pm ET, although only in repeats and without dearly departed next-door neighbors Jeff and Steph Woodcock.

First on the schedule during the summer run leading up to the comedy’s September 18 fourth-season premiere is “Joy Ride,” the second episode of the third season.
Joy decides to flirt with her co-worker when she assumes that Eddie’s snazzy new red convertible is competition and the result of a mid-life crisis. However, Eddie won’t be feeling too grand when Kenny completely tricks Eddie’s …read more
