Comcast viewers will be able to watch "The It's Alive Show" on TV again starting at midnight Saturday, when the local horror movie show debuts on WPMY.

Fans of the "Chiller Theater"-inspired show were upset in February when the cable company removed another local station, WBGN, from its lineup over a payment dispute.

More than 2,000 signed an online petition, and show creator Mark Menold, appearing as "It's Alive" host Professor Emcee Square, led "zombies" in a protest at Comcast's office in North Fayette.

Menold said Wednesday that WBGN, now on Verizon FiOS, will air reruns at 10 p.m. Saturdays; WPMY will air new episodes.
