IT'S THE PERFECT PAIR OF MOVIES AS ABC FAMILY PRESENTS "SISTERHOOD OF THE TRAVELING PANTS" PARTS 1 AND 2 BACK TO BACK ON SATURDAY, MARCH 16 STARTING AT 7PM ET/PT

Burbank, CA (February 25, 2013) - Grab your best girlfriends, pop some popcorn, and bond over the perfect pair of movies. ABC Family presents "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" and the ABC Family premiere of "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2" back-to-back on Saturday, March 16 at 7:00 PM and 9:30PM ET/PT.

In "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants," Tibby (Amber Tamblyn), Lena (Alexis Bledel), Carmen (America Ferrera) and Bridget (Blake Lively) are lifelong friends who find that that as they get older, their lives are heading in different directions. To keep the gang together, they pass along an amazing pair of jeans back and forth that happen to fit each girl perfectly.

"Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2" finds the girls in different parts of the world during their freshman year at college. But the loss of the pants sends them to Greece, along with Lena's little sister ("Pretty Little Liars" star Lucy Hale), where they rediscover what their friendship really means.
