LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - "Grounded for Life" will make its WB debut at the end of February, which has caused the network to shuffle its Thursday and Friday schedules.

"Grounded," which aired on FOX for two seasons and a few weeks in the fall, will premiere with two episodes at 8:30 and 9:30 p.m. ET Friday, Feb. 28. The show will air at 9:30 p.m. in subsequent weeks, following the Frog's top-rated comedy, "Reba."

To accommodate the new series, "Greetings from Tucson" will eventually move into the 8:30 slot now occupied by "Sabrina, the Teenage Witch." Freshman series "Do Over," which has been on hiatus for several months, may also get a tryout on Fridays.

"Sabrina," in turn, will move to 8 p.m. Thursdays starting Feb. 27. It will be paired with "Family Affair," which is also returning from hiatus.

When The WB acquired "Grounded for Life," it agreed to pay for six original episodes this season. The network may also air a handful of shows that were shot when the series was at FOX but never aired. The WB will have rights to reruns of the FOX episodes beginning next season.
