Do you miss the Tuesday, Thursday, & Saturday TV schedule??
Bladewelder | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 07:17 am     I'm really not liking the new CBS scheduling this year of Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday. I find I'm having a really hard time waiting from Saturday to Wednesday for my fix. Anyone else finding it hard to wait?? |
Spunky | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 07:31 am     I find the stretch from Saturday to Wednesday too long to keep the tv viewers involved in the game for the long run. I think it's a move to get more net viewers to follow the game since so much will be missed during that lapse of time. I can live with that. |
Bladewelder | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 07:54 am     Ah, but I'm not a net viewer and sometimes trying to keep up with the live feed posts and the other postings here.....well it's hard to get anything else done during the day, LOL!! I do wish they'd go back to Tuesday nights instead of Wednesday. |
Spunky | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 07:59 am     Well, I follow the Mole 2, I mean faithfully, on Tuesday and so I have enough of tv viewing, but I agree that it would have been better to have BB on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. And I'm also a tv viewer only and the VCR is working overtime... |
Lostinthefog | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 08:13 am     I agree. Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday definitely makes for a more balanced spacing. |
Ryn | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 08:14 am     maybe Arnie has a weekly golf outting on Tuesdays this year... |
Sonia | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 08:24 am     I agree Lostinthefor: "Tu., Th, & Sat. definitly makes for a more balanced spacing". It's exactly what I'm thinking. Other possibility that Arnie Tuesday golf (LOL Ryn, good joke), maybe CBS didn't really have choice to take this scedule because of other CBS summer schedule shows. |
Bladewelder | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 08:37 am     But BB came before all the other summer schedule shows! This is the third year. I didn't watch BB1 cause I couldn't get into it but wasn't it on almost every night?? That was a bit much. It must be hard for them to condense so much feed into one hour for airing. I don't envy their job. After watching last night they still didn't show much of Tonya (thank God!). Waaayyy too much of Josh though!!! He's totally obnoxious! Can't wait for him to go! |
Faerygdds | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 09:09 am     There's too much reality TV on Tuesday's this year... American Idol, Mole 2, Under One Roof... to add BB to this mix would be disastrous! Wed was the most logical choice, but I do agree it's a long tim to wait for the fix. But I'd rather wait one more day and hopefully have it back next year than have it one Tuesday and get the plug pulled midway through... |
Ryn | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 09:16 am     I haven't watch any reality TV this week except BB - tells ya where my priorities are American Idol lost me after the 1st shows, I did watch the more recent ones til this week. I am mad I missed Mole2 - heck I thought it was on last night - not Tuesday. |
Theowl | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 09:30 am     Ryn, don't you see the Countdown?? That's what it is there for!!  |
Oregonfire | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 10:11 am     Yes, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, makes more sense. Not sure why--more evenly spread out. Why did they change it? |
Floresmama | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 10:20 am     Spunky sorry this is OT but do you think that Heather from The Mole 2 looks like Lisa of BB3 I sure do. I love the Mole I am a little unhappy I know who it is this year but it is fun to watch and see if they do anything Mole like. I guess because of the ratings there won't be a Mole 3 |
Espen | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 11:01 am     It seems like they are keeping they are keeping their "reality slots" active through the summer, so they can backfill them with Amazing Race (wed 9/8c) and Survivor (Thu 8/7c).. Saturday being the "hold-over" episode for die-hards (ratings are usually significantly lower that day).. |
Sonia | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 11:57 am     "But BB came before all the other summer schedule shows! This is the third year." You're right Bladewelder. I was thinking that too, but I don't really know the reasons of this choice of schedule for CBS. As other posters said here, maybe it's because there is so much reality shows on t.v. now, maybe it became difficult for them to present all that and maintain the schedule of their other shows. I think the schedule of any t.v. show also depend of the usual rating of a specific day and hour. |
Snee | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 02:41 pm     i liked tues., thurs. and sat. |
Spygirl | Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 04:59 pm     We had this same schedule last year, but Tuesday would make more sense. |
