Moesha Coming to Superstation WGN in September 2005 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Pavan · 01-05-2005, 10:59 AM

Superstation WGN will get the exclusive analog-tier rights to UPN sitcom Moesha starting Sept. 10 for 4 years.

The Tribune Broadcasting Co.-owned channel will likely run the series -- which features pop star Brandy in the title role -- weekdays in early fringe (5 p.m.-7 p.m. EST) and on weekend afternoons.

Moesha was part of UPN’s Monday and Tuesday primetime sitcom blocks for six years, from January 1996 through the 2001-02 broadcast season and in national broadcast syndication from 2000 to 2002, where it averaged a 1.1 rating in the second of its two-year run.

WGN reaches more than 65 million TV households.

I just read that in my newspaper. Does the "exclusive analog-tier rights" thing mean than The-N has exclusive "digital" rights or will The-N give the show up in September?

I think The N will still air the show.

Moesh will be a great edition to the Superstation WGN line up

I am glad that this show is heading for cable syndication. TBS was supposed to get it in 2003 but the deal fell through.

Just to let everyone know, Moesha returns to WGN this fall after a short hiatus. It'll start Sept. 1 at 5am:
