In Rare Move, All Major Broadcast Networks to Honor Norman Lear in Primetime

In a rare joint effort, all of the major broadcast networks will run a simulcast of “an on-air in memoriam card” paying tribute to the iconic TV writer and producer. The tribute, “in recognition of Norman Lear’s vast accomplishments and influence across television,” will run on CBS, ABC, NBC, Fox, and The CW at 8 p.m., the networks said in a statement.

Lear died Tuesday at 101 years old.
