The current 8:30 p.m. Friday time-period occupant, “SABRINA, THE TEENAGE WITCH,” which consistently scored in its target demos for The WB on Friday nights, will switch over to Thursdays at 8:00 p.m. “SABRINA” will be followed by new episodes of first-year comedy “FAMILY AFFAIR” in its new time period at 8:30 p.m. In addition, on Thursday, February 27, in conjunction with the annual Mardi Gras celebration, “JKX: THE JAMIE KENNEDY EXPERIMENT” will bring its unique brand of humor to the sinful city of New Orleans for a special one-hour episode from 9:00 p.m.-10:00 p.m. # # #
