BB schedule change? (Saturday instead of Friday)
Sanfranjoshfan | Sunday, August 10, 2003 - 02:48 pm     Just a warning to pay attention to the tv schedule this next week or so! I noticed that in this week's TV Guide, there was no listing for BB on Friday....according to tvguide.com, it shows that for the next two weeks (in the SF area at least) BB is airing on Saturday night rather than Fridays... plus it looks like there may be other changes as well (upcoming Wednesdays, yes or no?): 8:00 PM Channel 5 KPIX Tuesday, 12 Big Brother 4 60 min. Thirteen houseguests try to avoid eviction in order to win the grand prize of $500,000. Additional Airings Saturday, 16 8:00 PM 5 KPIX Tuesday, 19 8:00 PM 5 KPIX Saturday, 23 10:00 PM 5 KPIX (edited to add - Oops! I misspelled Friday in the title and I can't change it!) |
Maris | Sunday, August 10, 2003 - 02:51 pm     I also saw that this Tuesday it will be on at 7pm in the NY area and not 8pm |
Costacat | Sunday, August 10, 2003 - 02:59 pm     Oh joy. Looks like I get the next two weekend's BB at 2:45 am on Sunday morning. |
R151996 | Sunday, August 10, 2003 - 03:00 pm     As I have posted in at least two other threads, CBS has football the next two Friday nights. Big Brother will be on Saturday at 8:00 pm ET/PT the next two weeks. Here are the listings I found on TVGuide.com for the next two weeks: Tuesday, August 12--8:00 pm ET/PT Wednesday, August 13--9:00 pm ET/PT Saturday, August 16--8:00 pm ET/PT Tuesday, August 19--8:00 pm ET/PT Wednesday, August 20--9:00 pm ET/PT Saturday, August 23--8:00 pm ET/PT Some local areas may have time changes due to sports programming. |
Laisey | Sunday, August 10, 2003 - 03:00 pm     Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. Just something else for my poor BB frazzeled brain to keep up with. What to do, Oh, what to do. |
Sanfranjoshfan | Sunday, August 10, 2003 - 03:03 pm     Thanks for fixing my typo, Mods! (I had visions of posters paging frantically through their TV Guides, unable to find the "Fridfay" listings!) |
Costacat | Sunday, August 10, 2003 - 03:03 pm     Apologies R151996. This is the first time I've seen anything about a schedule change. |
Crossfire | Sunday, August 10, 2003 - 03:16 pm     Yeah, its jumbled around a bit in Toronto here as well, with a Saturday show coming up on the 16th in place of the Friday show. I guess everyone without a tivo to babysit the tv for them will have to keep an eye on it. |
R151996 | Sunday, August 10, 2003 - 04:48 pm     No problem, Costacat. When I posted the first time it was before a schedule was out to confirm the episodes were being moved to Saturday and not pre-empted. |
Naja | Sunday, August 10, 2003 - 04:57 pm     I just checked my BB listings for the KC area Tues, Aug 12: 7:00 pm Wed, Aug. 13: 8:00 pm Sun, Aug. 17: 1:30 am Frig. |
Hamsterlady | Sunday, August 10, 2003 - 05:06 pm     BB listings for Houston area Tues, Aug 12th - BB 7:00 PM Wed, Aug 13th - BB 8:00 PM Friday, Aug 15th - BB not on; 7:00 PM - Preseason football - Packers vs. Browns Saturday, Aug 16th - BB 7:00 PM |
Ashley47 | Sunday, August 10, 2003 - 05:09 pm     I'm in the Philadelphia area and we aren't even going to get BB on Saturday night because of the Philadelphia Eagles vs Pittsburgh Steelers "preseason" game. As much as I dislike football at least it won't be as boring as BB has turned out this year. |
Costacat | Sunday, August 10, 2003 - 07:00 pm     Ashley, check the listings for REALLY early Sunday morning (late Saturday evening). BB is coming on here in San Diego at 2:45 am both of those Sundays (which would've been the Saturday night show). Go to TVGuide.com and scroll thru till you find the time it's on. I'd bet it's not completely pre-empted, just moved to a very weird time. |
Iscreamer1 | Sunday, August 10, 2003 - 07:20 pm     Two words...Get TIVO |
Ric_Munoz | Sunday, August 10, 2003 - 10:16 pm     Three words: Get Tivo IMMEDIATELY |
Wolf | Sunday, August 10, 2003 - 11:43 pm     Here in Burlington/Oakville area (just west of Toronto, ON) tvguide.ca lists the next 2 weeks on Cogeco cable as: Tues-12 @ 8pm Wed-13 @ 9pm Sat-16 @ 8pm Tues-19 @ 8pm Wed-20 @ 9pm (nothing listed for Fri/Sat yet) |
Marameko | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 09:00 am     Thank you for the heads up Ashley. I live in the Pittsburgh tv viewing area and the Steelers will definitely be on the CBS affiliate if there is a game, But I can catch BB on a West Virginia station. |
Ginger1218 | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 09:03 am     HAVE I EVER TOLD ANYBODY HOW MUCH I DESPISE FOOTBALL?????? |
Maris | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 09:07 am     Bet as much as I now despise the Yankees. Why the heck didnt the Yankees stay where they were. |
Debbied | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 01:13 pm     For reasons totally unfathomable to me, here in Seattle BB4 is not being shown on Friday, 8/15, so that we can see "Honeymoon in Las Vegas." Huh? At least pre-empting it for a football game makes some sense because the game is actually happening at the same time. But "Honeymoon in Las Vegas"???? |
Kealoha | Monday, August 11, 2003 - 02:54 pm     Ashley47 and others in the Philly area, KYW chan 3 will be showing Big Brother at 11:35 PM Sat night following the Eagles/Steelers game and the local news. I will keep my eyes open for any more changes.  |
Triplexxx | Tuesday, August 12, 2003 - 09:41 pm     CBS`ll air the next 2 BB4 nomination shows this,and the following Saturdays(8/16 and 23)as NFL pre-season football games will air on Fridays the next 2 weeks including this one.That`s for the network,in some places,check listings due to pre-season football/MLB(here in Baltimore)games.If you still really care.:-) |
Spunky | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 09:13 am     Well, if they change from Friday to Saturday it should be EVERYWHERE on Saturday... so up (way way up) here as well... |
