NBC SERIES ‘YOU AGAIN?’ TO FADE OUT

NBC won’t be asking “You Again?” much longer. The network said Thursday that the comedy series, starring Jack Klugman and John Stamos as father and son, will have its final broadcast Jan. 7.

The show, based on a British series called “Home to Roost,” debuted with good ratings last February but has not fared well in competition with ABC’s “Dynasty” and CBS’ “Magnum, P.I.” It ranks 52nd among the 78 series that have been broadcast this season.

NBC did not say what will replace “You Again?”

It did announce, however, that the 8-9 p.m. Friday time period occupied by the previously canceled “A-Team” will be filled as of Jan. 9 by “Stingray,” a series that is being brought back from last season. Nick Mancuso plays a man who travels about the country in a 1965 Corvette Stingray helping people in distress.
