I was looking at the online TV guide at Yahoo TV and next week, the episodes just list the Pilot coming on all week. Is that some kind of mistake?

I have been watching the series in its entirity from a few months back. I hope I get to finish it, especially the Cody episode.

Monday, 15 2:00 PM Step by Step: Poetic Justice
Monday, 15 2:30 PM Step by Step: Can't Buy Me Love
Tuesday, 16 2:00 PM Step by Step: Girls Just Wanna Have Fun

Looks like a break from Step by Step. Finally get to finish the series afterwards and see Cody again.

The Too many Santa episode was pretty nice at the end. Another brother-sister type moment for JT and Dana. Dana helps out JT and JT is really thankful for what she did. Wow, I missed a lot of episodes back in the day!

Looks like it will be pre-empted December 31st for a Full House marathon and January 1st for a 7th Heaven marathon.

Monday December 29th

2pm ET-Feet of Clay
230pm ET-Pain in the Class

Tuesday December 30th

2pm ET-The Half Monty
230pm ET-We're in the Money

Friday January 2nd

2pm ET-And Justice for Some
230pm ET-The Understudy

Should be showing the first episode around the 5th of January as best I can tell.
