Nexstar to Launch Rewind TV

TV News  Digital Networks 



        Nexstar Media is launching a new digital network that will complement  Antenna TV called Rewind TV.  Rewind TV will be airing classic TV shows from the 1980's and 90's. This gives Antenna TV which has been airing shows from the 50's to 90's  some breathing room in their line up.  

       Rewind will be airing some series that have been airing on Antenna TV  such as, Murphy Brown, Growing Pains,  Wings, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Who's the Boss, and Family Ties, and new addition The Drew Carey Show.    Antenna TV will still air shows from 50's through 70's and the weeknight re run of Johnny Carson. 

    The station will launch May 1st on Nexstar stations on newly added or replacements of existing digital channels. (Court TV airs on many of the former Tribune Nexstar stations maybe leaving due to it moving to Ion sub channels)
