LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - TV One, which targets black viewers, has snapped up off-network rights to the comedy "The Hughleys" and to the long-running legal series "Divorce Court," the first cable deal for both shows.

"The Hughleys," based on comedian D.L. Hughley's real-life experiences, will debut April 5 with a seven-hour marathon. It will join the regular schedule two days later. TV One also has rights to air episodes in limited numbers at a time on its video-on-demand platform.

"Hughleys," which also stars Elise Neal and John Henton, originally aired from 1998-2002 on ABC and UPN.

Meanwhile, TV One has acquired a "best of" package of 120 "Divorce Court" episodes featuring Judge Mablean Ephriam (new syndicated episodes star Judge Lynn Toler) as well as rights to air episodes on its VOD platform. Reruns began airing last month.

TV One, which launched in January 2004, is available in 43.4 million households.

Compared to BET, TV ONE hasn't picked up SH*T in 2008-LOL

Can't wait to watch this again for the first time. I caught the first two seasons on ABC but never watched it during the UPN years. I remember the UPN affiliate had the syndication rights in Atlanta but they pulled a TVLand by yanking it off before the UPN episodes started.

The UPN version was a bit more edgy so that is what you missed.
