It will be the 2nd new episode after it comes back. Either March 27 or April 3. It might be April 3, since ABC will bring the show back now on March 27, rather than March 20.

I don't think it's a movie, maybe a double length EM:HE.
Because BL is airing that night for the last time for a month. (then it'll return for nonstop episodes)

Yeah, it's probably a 2 hour encore of EM: HE. ABC will not air a DH rerun at 9pm, which I think is pretty smart as they are trying to get the show #1 for adults 18-49 for the season.

It is still not confirmed if the next episode will be on the 20th or 27th, but for sure a new one WILL air on the 27th, as an awesome lead in for Grey's Anatomy.

If it does not start back til the 27th, then it would air rerun or pre-emption free the remainder of the season(EIGHT STRAIGHT WEEKS!)(assuming the finale is May 15th like I've heard elsewhere).

I hope ABC airs the season finale on May 22. And expand it to 2 hours.

I've heard the finale will be 2 hours on May 15th and then the Boston Legal 2-hour finale will be on the 22nd. It's just rumors though... If it's May 15th, it'd be against the Survivor finale(and would win since the ratings would likely hit record highs).

It makes more sense if the DH season finale is 2 hours on May 22. I doubt Boston Legal's finale will be 2 hours. The DH episode on May 15 would still beat Survivor.

I told my mom that and she just :rolleyes:. I don't know why but she's always hated Bob Newhart for some reason. Oh well she'll still watch the episode.

ABC has scheduled a Saturday rebroadcast on Saturday, March 26 at 10 p.m. The episode is still TBD.

There is also word now that on March 20 a new episode of DH will indeed air. Should know soon.

:woohoo:

Thanks Pav. I had my doubts that ABC would air a repeat on the 20th at 9 and with no announcement about EM: HE going there, I was starting to doubt it.

I'm hoping they reair "Your Fault" from 1/23 soon. It's the only one missing except for a few October episodes. I watched it(was on vacation), but it didn't record.

Saturday the 26th re-airing at 10pm is indeed "Your Fault." It is still unknown if we will get a new episode on the 20th or a rerun or no episode at all. For now, ABC has listed an encore of "Everyday a Little Death."
