PBS will be reviving "Matinee at the Bijou" with a new 12-episode season in 2007. a series that aims to "faithfully replicate the pre-1960 movie matinee experience. Animated short films will be included as a regular part of each installment, all of which will be remastered in high-definition, with Betty Boop, Tom & Jerry, and the Fleischer Superman cartoons being named as potential candidates for the show.

The show's official weblog is at matineebijou.blogspot.com, which reveals that Debbie Reynolds will be hosting the show. The blog will contain scheduling and sponsor updates and preview videos.
