TV NEWS JANUARY 2

http://blog.sitcomsonline.com/2019/01/gettv-gets-amen-starting-today-eva.html

Amen is now on getTV! The '80s Sherman Hemsley sitcom joins series like The Steve Harvey Show, Married...with Children, All in the Family, Walker Texas Ranger, Sanford & Son and Good Times on their weekday lineup. Amen is airing weekdays from 6-7am. As of now, no other timeslots for the series but this is a start! Amen of course stars Sherman Hemsley, Clifton Davis, Anna Maria Horsford, Roz Ryan, Barbara Montgomery, Jester Hairston, Tony T. Johnson, Elsa Raven, and Bumper Robinson. Just months after The Jeffersons wrapped its 11-season run, Hemsley moved on down I-95 to his native Philadelphia — or a TV studio depicting it — for six seasons on Amen on NBC. Hemsley plays Ernest Frye, a Philly attorney who's just as greedy, opinionated, and stubborn as George Jefferson, but with a twist. He's a church deacon with little patience for those who disagree with him on how to run the parish. Enter Rev. Reuben Gregory (Clifton Davis), a young pastor on a mission to be the angel on Deacon Frye's shoulder. Conflict ensues, especially regarding Frye's unmarried daughter Thelma (Anna Maria Horsford).
