[via press release from Nick at Nite]

Nick at Nite Goes Mad for Helen Hunt and Paul Reiser and Adds Mad About You to Network's Line-Up

Hit Sitcom Joins Network Beginning Monday April 10

PASADENA, Calif., Jan. 11 -- Nick at Nite gives a warm and gracious welcome to young newlyweds Paul and Jamie Buchman when the acclaimed comedy series Mad About You joins the network's sitcom line-up in April. The series -- which stars Emmy and Academy Award-winner Helen Hunt and Emmy-nominated Paul Reiser -- chronicles the comical trials and tribulations of a young couple madly in love in New York City doing their best to maintain their marriage despite the pressures of day to day life. The show kicks off with a four-day marathon beginning Monday, April 10 through Thursday, April 13 from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m. ET/PT.

"Mad About You is one of the funniest and most honest comedies about married life that has ever been on television," states Larry W. Jones, President, TV Land and Nick at Nite. "Paul Reiser and Helen Hunt are such an amazingly talented team, and this series brings viewers a refreshing take on marriage. We are thrilled to add this series to Nick at Nite."

Created by Paul Reiser and Danny Jacobson, Mad About You aired on NBC from 1992 to 1999 and focuses on Paul and Jamie, two recently married, neurotic New Yorkers still trying to figure out how to make married life work. Both are charming and completely in love with each other, but the duo is still trying to learn to deal with Paul's extremely analytical ways and Jamie's penchant for being a free spirit. They experience the often mundane ins and outs of marriage, from buying a sofa, dealing with meddling parents and friends and juggling with their respective professional careers. Jaime's sister Lisa Stemple (Anne Ramsay) constantly intrudes on them as do their friends Mark (Richard Kind), his wife Fran (Leila Kenzle) and Paul's cousin Ira (John Pankow). The couple also must contend with noisy neighbors, a crazy dogwalker and others.

Currently seen in more than 88 million U.S. homes, Nick at Nite is coming off its highest-rated and most-watched year in the history of the network. Founded in 1985, Nick at Nite is the home to hit sitcoms such as The Cosby Show, The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Who's The Boss?, Full House, Murphy Brown and Roseanne. While these modern sitcoms will always be the lifeline of the network, Nick at Nite Originals was created in 2003 to develop original programming that meets what the network refers to as the "Four F's" criteria: programming that is Family-Friendly, Funny and Familiar. Nick at Nite Originals produced Fatherhood (June 2004), a show based on Bill Cosby's best-selling book of the same name, which has been one of the highest rated shows on the network.
