ATLANTA: Bounce TV is set to air back-to-back episodes of the series Roc, The Parent 'Hood, A Different World and The Hughleys.

The network, targeted at African Americans, picked up 72 episodes of Roc and 90 episodes of The Parent 'Hood from Warner Bros. Domestic Television Distribution. It scored 144 episodes of A Different World from Carsey-Werner Distribution and 89 episodes of The Hughleys from Twentieth Television. The four series will be scheduled back to back to create a new lineup leading into prime time. The network will air two episodes from each show Monday through Friday starting at 5 p.m. They join the Bounce TV schedule as of January 5, 2015.

"Research shows that our rapidly-growing audience is hungry for great family-friendly comedy series. These four iconic sitcoms fit beautifully together and will further drive our already-robust ratings and viewership," commented Jonathan Katz, the COO of Bounce TV.
