IN THE NEWS

Sam Champion, who left Good Morning America in 2013 to join The Weather Channel, will return to GMA the week of January 11 to sub for ABC News chief meteorologist Ginger Zee during her maternity leave. “He has to take full credit for the dip in the jet stream,” said Zee in a phone call to GMA on Monday. Since the cancellation of Champion’s TWC morning show, AMHQ, he has transitioned to more prime time coverage.

The allegation by two writers that Fox comedy New Girl was based on a script they wrote was soundly rejected by a U.S. District Court judge. “No reasonable jury could conclude that there are substantial similarities in the plot, sequence of events, characters, mood, pace, setting, theme or dialogue between Square One and New Girl,” wrote Judge Stephen V. Wilson, granting a summary judgment to Fox and others in a copyright lawsuit. Season five of New Girl premieres tonight.

President Obama will appear on CNN town hall special Guns in America with Anderson Cooper on Thursday, January 7 at 8p. Topic is tightening restrictions on access to guns.

The Meredith Vieira Show will wrap after production of season two, announced NBCUniversal. The syndicated talker started its sophomore run with a .8 household rating, down 50% from its debut. “I am so sorry to see our show come to an end after this season, but I am also incredibly proud of the work our staff has done and forever grateful to our supportive viewers,” said Vieira. The popular host won’t be idle – Vieira will be on hand for NBC’s coverage of the Summer Olympics.

Fans of Pretty Little Liars can get dolled up for the series’ January 12 winter premiere, on ABC Family’s dime. The net (which officially will be christened Freeform the same day) is offering free blowouts at Drybar, recreating hairstyles based on PLL characters. Tax and tip covered, appointments necessary.

The winner of Travel Channel’s fourth annual sweepstakes, The Trip: 2016, launched yesterday, will be whisked off for a $100,000 Caribbean adventure (deadline for entry: March 25). The net will air a one-hour special focusing on the tropical clime’s culture and cuisine on Tuesday, February 23 at 8p.

Ellen DeGeneres will receive the People’s Choice Award for Favorite Humanitarian during the CBS broadcast of the show on Wednesday, January 6 at 9p. DeGeneres, also in contention for Favorite Talk Show Host, chose St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital as the beneficiary of the annual donation presented by Walgreens.

More news to make DeGeneres do a happy dance: The Ellen DeGeneres Show landed an early renewal, a deal through summer 2020 with 10 NBC-owned stations. The syndie talker had already been picked up through the 2016-17 season.

Even more Ellen: The Ellen DeGeneres Show will move to 3p in May on WNBC New York, KNBC LA, WTVJ Miami and WVIT Hartford, CT, when the NBC owned TV stations launch 4p newscasts. The Steve Harvey Show will air at 2p.

Time Warner Cable added 32,000 pay-TV subscribers in 2015, reporting its best year ever for customer growth. “Ordinarily we wouldn’t announce subscriber results until our earnings release, but given our results, I couldn’t wait to thank the team for its outstanding performance,” said TWC chairman and CEO Rob Marcus. “We’re especially pleased that we were able to add residential video customers for the first time in nine years.”
