ABC presents its highly anticipated new midseason show GALAVANT, described as "a comedy extravaganza." The series premieres TONIGHT, JANUARY 4 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET) and will run two episodes in the one-hour block each week. "Once Upon a Time", which currently airs in the time slot, will return on Sunday, March 1st.
