OWN Reveals New Programming Highlights

LOS ANGELES: Alongside a number of returning shows on the OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network schedule is a new docu-series that centers on sports legend Deion Sanders, tentatively titled It’s Prime’s Time.

New episodes of Oprah’s Next Chapter are airing this summer Sundays at 9 p.m. Upcoming episodes feature Hugh Jackman, Gloria Estefan, the cast of The Butler and Lindsay Lohan, who sits down for a highly anticipated in-depth interview following her most recent stint in rehab.

In September, OWN kicks off a third season of For Better or Worse, from the Tyler Perry franchise. There are also all-new episodes of Six Little McGees, about a family with six 2 year olds, and Oprah’s Lifeclass, featuring Bishop T.D. Jakes. New episodes of Super Soul Sunday return in the fall, featuring Mariel Hemingway and Bobby Williams.

New for 2014 is It’s Prime’s Time (working title). The series follows the real life of the former football star, baseball great, broadcaster, businessman and father. It spotlights the challenges he faces in raising five children in a household that includes his mother, her foster children and his aunt and uncle, while also guiding the future of Prime Prep Academy, the charter school he created to help children in underserved areas.
