WHEN DOES THE ONLINE COMPANION START?
 The Online Companion is timed to the on-air broadcast of the TV Land Awards Show.* It will be available at tvland.com shortly before The Red Carpet Pre-Show, so check your local TV Listings, or the schedules at tvland.com for the show time in your area.

To save time, we suggest you register now so that you can play for prizes, and make sure you have the necessary software installed on your computer!
*NOTE: The Online Companion will be available for the Wednesday, March 12 8:30PM and Saturday, March 15 8PM airings only.
WHY SHOULD I REGISTER?
By registering, you will be eligible to win prizes during the Awards Show and participate afterwards in the TV Land Message boards (subject to the Privacy & Terms of Service policies).
DO I HAVE TO BE WATCHING TV?
If you don't, it will be like Laverne without Shirley or Happy without Days! You'll need to be watching the TV Land Awards on your TV AND playing along with the Online Companion at the same time. If you aren't watching the Awards on your TV, the Online Companion won't make much sense; sort of like six Brady kids crammed into two small rooms with one only bathroom between them!

I DON'T GET TVLAND. HOW CAN I SEE THE TV LAND AWARDS SHOW?
The good news is that since the Award Show is creating such a buzz, the premiere on March 12 at 9PM et/pt will be simulcast on TV Land & Nick at Nite, as well as our newer cousin to the north, TV Land Canada.

CAN I BUY A COPY OF THE AWARD SHOW ON HOME VIDEO OR DVD?
We are sorry, but TV Land doesn't offer any of its programming for sale on home video or DVD directly. This includes shows we have aired as "specials" like Inside TV Land, The I Love Lucy Marathon, An Evening With The Rat Pack and the TV Land Awards Show.
