Archie and Hawkeye and Mary and Bob and Carol are being reunited for a hot Saturday-night date on the Catchy Comedy broadcast television network.

TVLine has learned exclusively that starting Saturday, Jan. 4, 2025, Catchy Comedy (fka Decades) will recreate what is widely regarded as one of the greatest TV line-ups ever — Saturday night circa 1973-74 — by leading off with All in the Family at 8/7c, followed by M*A*S*H, The Mary Tyler Moore Show and The Bob Newhart Show.

Closing out the night, as it did back in the day, will be The Carol Burnett Show at 10 pm.

The network’s “Catchy Flashback: Iconic 70s Saturday Night” line-up marks the first time all five series have been together on one night since their network-TV heyday. By the end of that 1973-74 TV season, all of the sitcoms named above ranked among TV’s Top 15 shows, and collectively earned 12 Emmy wins and 29 total nominations.

During the daytime on Saturdays, Catchy Comedy will serve up entertaining and enduring comedy favorites, scheduled as theme blocks: “Catchy Families” presents the family friendly Full House, The Brady Bunch and My Three Sons, while “Catchy Loves Lucy” showcases the one and only Lucille Ball with The Lucy Show, The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour and I Love Lucy.

In late night, “silly comedy” is showcased by “Catchy’s Not-So-Smart Sitcoms” slate of Get Smart, Sledge Hammer! (starring David Rasche), ZAZ’s Police Squad! (starring Leslie Nielsen) and Mel Brooks’ Robin Hood parody When Things Were Rotten.
