What happened to "the show will be on Friday because of football game"?
Sunriverose | Friday, August 09, 2002 - 06:52 pm     Last night they said the show will be on Saturday, as usual. But a few days ago folks on the board were saying it would be on Friday instead because of a football game. Anyone know anything about this? |
Pamy | Friday, August 09, 2002 - 06:55 pm     It's next week, the 16th

Reader234 | Friday, August 09, 2002 - 07:03 pm     But in many areas it will come on after the preseason football game, and after the local news! (ie Chicago area) |
Kitt | Friday, August 09, 2002 - 11:33 pm     On the west coast tomorrow's (Saturday's) show is scheduled for 10pm... I'm setting it to tape early and end late, as sometimes those games go on longer than planned. |
Kc103 | Friday, August 09, 2002 - 11:55 pm     Yes, in Chicago they said it should be on Saturday at approx. 10:40 after the news. P.S. Go Bears!! |
Zachsmom | Friday, August 09, 2002 - 11:57 pm     WHAT!!! West coast isn't on until 10 tomorrow??? AHHHHHHHHHHH..no no no..grrrrrrrrrrrr |
Pirate | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 06:51 am     This happens every year. Football always screws up the schedule. You have to check week to week to see if there are time and/or day changes. It's a pain in the butt to keep reprogramming to record the shows! Oh well...a small price to pay in order to watch a bunch of people cheat, lie, and back stab each other. |
Ger | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 07:07 am     Just checked the nfl schedule. CBS is televising two games nationally this year. The first is next Saturday and the second game is the following Thursday (the 22nd) There are all kinds of local broadcasts that will interfere with BB3 but the CBS stations are pretty good about airing the show after the football game. Does anyone have any idea what BB3 is going to do about their live night being preempted? Do they go a day early with it or a day late and not give much time to the HOH to decide who to nominate? |
Retired | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:28 am     Ger - Suggest you check tvguide.com for your area's listings. Here in *NYC area* this coming Thursday's (8/15) live eviction show (one with evicted HG coming back in) will be shown AFTER the game, news, Letterman etc. & is scheduled to be aired (according to tvguide) at 2:05 AM on Friday...GRRR. Also no Sat. 8/17 show. Instead that's on Fri. 8/16 @ 9 PM. The following Sat. 8/24 the show is on BEFORE the game @ 7 PM. So once more suggest you check tvguide listings. Pre-empted shows may be before or after games depending on your area/time zone. Hope this helps. |
Draheid | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:33 am     Ger: I don't believe Endemol is going to change anything. I think they will continue with their own production schedule. Seems the affiliates (read local stations) are deciding where and when things will be aired. For example, I happen to be in a cable system that gets two CBS affiliates. Tonight, at 7:00PM one station is carrying the program as scheduled, the other is scheduled to show it at 10:35PM following the game and 10 O'clock news. I have my TiVo programmed to record the first affiliate with a backup of any 'unforseen' Big Brother 3 programming. So, when I checked the 'to-do' list, TiVo has scheduled to record BOTH programs. FWIW - I thought this situation was interesting. |
Wcv63 | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:47 am     I don't like football. I don't like when football preempts my shows. Hooey on Football! Hooey I say! Curses! I don't get BB until 11:30Pm tonight because the Saints preempt. The Saints? Yeah...<insert your joke and/or insult here> |
Fix2scream | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 12:44 pm     I know Wcv63, I was thinking the same thing. My dad just asked if I was going to watch the Saints tonight. I freaked out! Puuulease! And the sad thing is, I know that I will watch the game, just so I don't miss BB. The agony! Don't get me wrong, I like to watch the Saints. But come on, it's BB for crying out loud. Another thing. Isn't it funny that when you want to watch them they are blacked out? |
Edno67 | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 12:50 pm     HEY Now lol I'm in new orleans lol No inserting jokes,and besides,,,we made it to playoffs last year and won first game in playoffs,,,,,so no joking about saints are needed lol, Gonna be a night to watch two good things : ))) |
Alaginger | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 01:03 pm     Hey, you New Orleans' guys......I'm over here in Slidell. My Times Picayune TVFocus lineup, says BB3 is on at 7pm tonight. I can't go to bed without my BB3 fix......so, if the Saints preempt, I'll just have to stay up late....more Geritol, I guess (LOL)...... |
Toolhound | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 01:17 pm     I just looked and I am down here with the 2003 Super Bowl Champions (Tampa Bay Bucs) and they play on Friday night at 7pm. Guess I will have to tape BB. |
