TV Land Takes Aim When Just Shoot Me! Joins the Network's Line-Up Beginning January 26

NEW YORK, Jan. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- What happens when a scheming assistant, neurotic photographer, high-strung ex-model, carousing fashion editor and the boss's hot-tempered daughter work together in a glamour magazine office? Find out during TV Land's Just Shoot Me! Launch Party on Saturday, January 26 from 9:00pm - 6:00am and Sunday, January 27 from 9:00pm - 6:00am ET/PT. The 16-hour event will showcase hilarious episodes from the hit series including the groundbreaking "Back Issues" episode as writer Maya Gallo (Laura San Giacomo) asks her estranged father Jack (George Segal) for help, "The Burning House" when Finch (David Spade) makes his directorial debut and "The Write Stuff" when Nina recreates her famous supermodel pose.

In addition, TVLand.com will stream five full episodes daily, beginning January 26, with weekly updates. The website will feature character bios, a comprehensive episode guide, trivia game and photo gallery.

Just Shoot Me! premiered on NBC on March 4, 1997. The show was a hit and became one of television's most popular sitcoms running for seven seasons. Set in the office of a cutting-edge fashion magazine, Just Shoot Me! follows the lives of its staff members -- a writer (Laura San Giacomo) so desperate for employment she reluctantly goes to work for her father (George Segal), the owner of "Blush" magazine; the sarcastic assistant Dennis Finch (David Spade), the neurotic ex-model Nina Van Horn (Wendie Malick) and the philandering photographer Elliot DiMauro (Enrico Colantoni).
