Grey’s Anatomy Coming to Lifetime
Women’s channel, Lifetime, has won the bidding war over rerun rights to Grey’s Anatomy, after Oxygen and TNT pulled out at the last minute for reasons unknown.
Lifetime, which had been in the bidding war in the beginning, is believed to be forking over $1.2 million per episode, an expensive deal considering Lifetime is contractually required to pick up the tab for as many as 200 episodes, should “Grey’s” stay on the air at ABC that long. (Walt Disney Co. owns ABC and the show’s syndicator, Buena Vista Television, and 50 percent of Lifetime).
Lifetime can begin airing the series daily in fall 2009 in any daypart. In addition, the network will begin airing episodes from Season 1 once a week starting in January.
