Lifetime's COMING HOME Returns with New Episodes, 5/30

In honor of Memorial Day, Coming Home, Lifetime's docu-series featuring U.S. armed forces service members' surprise family reunions, will return with new episodes on a new day and time, Wednesdays at 9:00pm ET/PT beginning May 30.

In the May 30th episode, Sesame Street's very own Elmo and Rosita travel all the way to Fort Bliss, Texas, to put together a once-in-a-lifetime surprise for the children of an Army sergeant who are having an especially hard time with their father's deployment in Iraq. Not a day goes by that Tristan and Alyssa Bomarito don't miss their father Sgt. Mark Bomarito. To Tristan, Mark is not just Dad, he's his best friend. In one of the series' most emotional and heartfelt moments, Elmo and Rosita enlist the help of a General to bring the children of Fort Bliss together and create a surprise this family will never forget.

Coming Home follows the unforgettable and inspiring surprise reunions of members of all five branches of the military with their spouses, children, parents and other loved ones as they return home from active duty throughout the world. Hosted by former American Idol finalist Matt Rogers, each episode highlights multiple reunions featuring service members and their emotional stories.
