As if i needed another reason to love the guy, he buys the rights to the show for his niche network HDNet.

if ratings go down i'm sure he will cry endlessly and go off on crazy conspiracy theories about how "The Man" is out to get him.

He could also try to produce it as a movie, just like he did with Goodnight, and Good Luck.

If he puts that show back on the air, I think that would singlehandedly prompt me to buy cable for my TV. I'm still waiting for the 3rd season to come out on DVD in August. Pure Genius.

I agree. I was ready to sign up for Showtime when I heard they might be taking over AD, but they didn't and Showtime still sucks!

The article is confusing. Is he just running re-runs of these shows or is he planning on continuing to produce new episodes of these shows?

If so..hell yes

just playing reruns...the network is only available in about 3 million homes, there is no way it could generate enough revenue to fund production of new episodes. And the cast have already been released from their contracts...Jeffery Tambor will be in a new show with John Lithgow on NBC this fall.
