Coupling on Bravo

By Allison Romano -- Broadcasting & Cable, 9/29/2003 8:19:00 AM

If you missed Coupling on NBC, relax: Bravo will give viewers a second chance.

In its latest repurposing move, the NBC-owned cable channel will replay the sitcom's premiere Sept. 30 and episode two Oct. 7, both at 11 p.m. EST. No other episodes have been scheduled.

Since NBC acquired Bravo for $1.25 billion last December, the channel has replayed NBC's Kingpin, The Restaurant and Fame, but Coupling is the first sitcom to be repurposed.

NBC and Bravo have been quiet about the Coupling replays. An intrepid Broadcasting & Cable reporter found the scheduled plays while surfing TiVo Inc.'s listings.

Coupling plays elsewhere on cable, too. BBC America runs the original British version, including an airing at 10 p.m. on Thursday, right after the NBC show.

BBC America is looking to piggyback (or is that peacockback?) on NBC's hype. "You've heard the buzz, now see the original," the Bravo Web site (www.bravotv.com) said.
