ABC's TGIF dates: 1) November 29, 1996 (hosted by Cory & Shawn from Boy Meets World) 2) January 3, 1997 (hosted by Laura and Maxine from Family Matters) 3) March 7, 1997 (hosted by Tim Allen from Home Improvement, to promote Jungle 2 Jungle)

ABC's TGIF block (1989-2000) began to die in the fall of 1997: stemming from a combination of aging sitcoms like Family Matters and Step by Step moving to CBS (who started - and ended - their own family-friendly Friday night sitcom line-up in 1997-98 called "The Block Party"), the oversaturation of supernatural/magic type shows (Sabrina the Teenage Witch and new series You Wish and Teen Angel, the latter of which both lasted only one season), the failure of Two of a Kind *(which was the last sitcom produced by the previously reliable Miller-Boyett group)* starring the Olsen twins the following year (1998-99). Ultimately, the ending of Boy Meets World after seven seasons and Sabrina, The Teenage Witch moving to The WB after the 1999-2000 season. ABC would bring back the TGIF brand for the 2003-05 & 2018-19 seasons, *but it never met the same success it had before.*
