"In the early days, Pat Robertson's Christian Broadcasting Network refused to air reruns of Bewitched on the grounds that it promoted witchcraft. Today the outlet is owned by ABC, which calls it the ABC Family Channel and happily broadcasts not just The 700 Club but Sabrina, the Teenage Witch, not to mention the frequently ribald humor of Whose Line Is It Anyway?"
If memory serves, ABC Family airs "The 700 Club" because that was part of the deal when Robertson sold the channel to Newscorp, which then sold what was then the Fox Family Channel to ABC, which apparently inherited the clause in the original deal. So, I don't know that they broadcast "The 700 Club" happily, per se.
Hello, Matilda Fairbourne! I miss you every day.
