Monday nights on ABC Family are all new with the Season Two premiere of the award-winning family drama SWITCHED AT BIRTH and the winter premiere of the critically-acclaimed series BUNHEADS on Monday, January 7th, 2013.
First, at 8:00PM ET/PT, the fallout from the baby switch trial continues in the second season premiere of "Switched at Birth," airing Monday, January 7th at 8:00PM ET/PT on ABC Family.
After the verdict against the hospital makes Angelo a millionaire, he stuns the families with lavish gifts. But suspicions about Angelo's behavior continue when a pregnant woman shows up claiming that he is the father. John and Kathryn consider a run for public office. Meanwhile, Bay must face the Student Honor Board when she is accused of cheating, and Daphne's distraction with Chef Jeff gets her in trouble. ABC Family will air a special "Switched at Birth" marathon on Monday, January 7th, from 11:00AM - 8:00PM ET/PT, leading up to the Season Two premiere.
Then, at 9:00PM ET/PT, Michelle has returned to Las Vegas and is working as a magician's assistant in the winter premiere of ABC Family's original series "Bunheads," airing Monday, January 7th at 9:00PM ET/PT on ABC Family.
It's been several months since the Nutcracker fiasco, where Michelle accidently maced the young performers of Paradise Dance Academy. Now she's crashing on her friend's couch and working as a dancer for a small-time magician in Henderson, NV. Meanwhile in Paradise, the dance studio is closed down, leaving the students to keep busy on their own. Ginny has taken over her mother's real estate business; Melanie has been caring for her grandpa, and Boo is pulling her hair out taking care of her little brother while her pregnant mother is on bed rest. After a summer at Joffrey, Sasha returns but refuses to head back home, instead hiding out with friends.
