I don't know if Hanks bought the rights -- it doesn't seem likely -- but the show has been running on Saturday mornings for months, two episodes per pop. Hanks has said he's proud of it and of how hard they worked on it, and that his being hired for the pilot got him his SAG card.
I watched BB in first-run and loved it then. I'd seen it here and there since then, but when I found it on TBS this time round, I TiVoed the whole thing. I just finished BB today. It's still very funny (although perhaps not quite as funny as I remember it being back then) and the performances are sometimes pretty raw, but the cast is winning. I still like the show a lot.
