The Odyssey Network, a cable TV outlet founded by an interfaith coalition, continues to offer scaled-down religious programming in the fall season premiering Friday.
Odyssey, which reaches 29 million homes, put a new emphasis on family-oriented entertainment last April after Hallmark Entertainment and the Jim Henson Co. jointly paid $100 million for 45 percent ownership. Another secular firm, Liberty Media, is also a part owner.
In this fall’s schedule, religion shows fill three morning hours and two overnight hours. There are also religion programs Saturday nights after 10 and on Sundays from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m.
