ABC BRINGING BACK MONDAY NIGHT BASEBALL IN 2009

New York - Saying "the time is right", right now, ABC today announced it is bringing back Monday Night Baseball next spring, in a move it thinks will kick-start the franchise in a way that will rival its stalwart Monday Night Football.

The network also stated it will be reviving new versions of Charlie's Angels, Laverne & Shirley, and Three's Company.

In a joint announcement, ABC and The Rose Bowl said they will be broadcasting chariot races on New Year's Day.
