Welcome to "Countdown to Decades", the unique binge viewing event unlike any other. Our special program lineup is dedicated to one TV series at a time, with continuing episodes airing in sequence 24 hours a day. Viewers will be able to binge on episode after episode of each program as it airs in order. Fans of every genre will enjoy 36 different TV series over the next 5 months.
As the name implies, "Countdown to Decades" is programmed to count down to the official premiere of DECADES, the new multicast network presented in partnership with CBS Television Stations. DECADES is a joint venture with Weigel Broadcasting, founder of other DTV subchannels MOVIES!, Me-TV, and Heroes & Icons. Weigel will be responsible for distribution on non-CBS O&O DTV stations.
Second, ABC will be adding a new digital subchannel on April 15, to all 8 of their network O&O's - LAFF
Scripps Broadcasting will also be on board in 13 cities. At launch, LAFF will reach a total of over 40% of US TV viewers.

Programming will consist of a mix of newer movies, sitcoms (Ellen, The Drew Carey Show), and standup comedy, targeted to 18 to 49 adults. LAFF joins BOUNCE TV, GRIT, and ESCAPE in the Katz Broadcasting portfolio. Katz Broadcasting was established in 2014 by former Turner Broadcasting executive Jonathan Katz.
