In conformance with its long-term game plan, Romance Classics is increasing its original programming next year, adding three new lifestyle-oriented, half-hour series in primetime.
In the first quarter, Romance plans to start airing a different original series every weeknight at 8 p.m. The five series, two of which are already on-air, focus on romance-inspired topics such as weekend getaways, romantic recipes, advice, celebrity love stories and true-life romances.
"These programs will add definition to the network and build up our inventory," said Kate McEnroe, president of Romance and American Movie Classics.
