TORONTO (December 11, 2012) Citytv celebrates the New Year with a hot slate of 2013 mid-season premiere dates announced today. Featuring eight new and seven returning hit series, Citytv keeps the laughs and momentum going beginning Sunday, Jan. 6 with new original comedies, critically lauded dramas, and perennial hits.

Adding to Citytv's acclaimed library of laughs comes a collection of soon-to-be family favourites from some of the industry's brightest creative minds. From the creators of How I Met Your Mother and New Girl hails the warm family comedy The Goodwin Games, and the unconventional First Family in 1600 Penn from the laugh-makers of Modern Family. Then, bringing viewers an all-new spin on a full house, Citytv welcomes How to Live With Your Parents (for the Rest of Your Life) to the mid-season schedule. Plus, Mondays get even bigger when the Biggs move into their new home on Citytv with the network premiere and new episodes of Mike & Molly, while Citytv's original new comedies Seed and Package Deal make their hotly anticipated series debuts.

New to the mid-season lineup are fresh twists on past favourites with the premieres of the imaginative new dramas The Carrie Diaries and Hannibal. How did Carrie Bradshaw get her start? And who was the man behind Hannibal before the world knew his name? Citytv tells their stories each week this winter.

Rounding out the mid-season lineup are returning cult hit Community, Cougartown's cul-de-sac crew, couples comedy Rules of Engagement, medical drama Body of Proof, and reality TV favourite The Biggest Loser. Additionally, epic adventure series Revolution, from Hollywood heavyweights J.J. Abrams and Eric Kripke, makes its long-awaited uprising from hiatus.

Plus, airing exclusively on OMNI Television, southern-charmer Sean Lowe embarks on his own search for love in Season 17 of The Bachelor. From Lake Louise, AB, to Thailand, Sean is prepared to travel far and wide to find lasting love with one of 25 beautiful bachelorettes.
