Two things right now...

The finale ep is scheduled to be December 18th, and it will be 2 hours.

There will be no episode November 6th, because of the Country Music Association awards telecast.

That means there will be one other 2 hour episode, no word on when yet, but I'm thinking it might be November 27th, as that is when the non-eliminations are likely to begin. (which is good because B2 is scheduled to end the week before with a 2-hour episode)

For Dallas-Ft. Worth fans, the show is being pre-empted 10/30 for Mavs basketball and will be shown at 1:37 a.m. 10/31. FYI.

This is good news I think....CBS announced that there will be a special aring before AR3 on 11/20...."The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show". I know the shows don't match, but that show might help with the leadin on that night, which is up against the last night of B2.....

Also, the week after (11/27) Survivor will be airing at 8PM that night in a special Wednesday episode (because it's the night before thanksgiving, and if I read this right, also the last night of November Sweeps...Also, if the sched goes like I think, AR3 will be 2 hours that night.

i take it the 'victoria's secret fashion show' is to draw a male audience?! whatever will the networks come up with next for a 'special'?! count me out!
and i like country music pretty much, but is it just me or is there an 'annual' country music award show about 3 or 4 times a year?! lol

It is dangerous tabbyking....ABC aired this last year. It did great in the ratings, but got a lot of flak from people, saying it was indecent. And it aired at 9PM, not 8. Apparently it was supposed to originally air at 10PM that night, but CBS was spooked because it was going to go against the final hour of the final B2 episode....so it might do very well, but I sense a media backlash. Shouldn't effect AR3 however....CBS just wanted to have a blockbuster to start that night, and hopefully have people stick around for the rest of the night...and not switch to ABC for B2. It's counterprogramming as well, as B2 gets a huge female audience...this will bring a big male audience.

Do that many people really listen to country music throughout the country? I want to see the brothers (twins & K/G) racing! Oh well, at least I don't have to have 2 T.V.'s going at once tonight.

ok...I'm hearing things about the sched...we know for sure next week and the 20th will be one hour. The 27th is up in the air, while as it is right now, if it held to form, we'd be having a non-elim followed by a elimination....but I'm hearing that night will be 1 hour, and the 2 hour episode will be the week after (12/4)....which, IF the normal sched is followed, would make it an elimination followed by an non-elim...we might have a suprise coming up...stay tuned yall..

I thought I was prepared for no show tonight, but I can't believe how disappointed I actually am that it didn't come on. Boohoo! Hurry up next Wednesday!

Thank goodness it wasn't on last night or my house would be SOOOO far behind right now!!! As it is, I will be painting in the kitchen, only until about 5:30 tonight, and then cleaning up and getting dinner ready for Friends & Survivor tonight! If AR had been on last night, I would have a TONNE of painting still to do...

TAR will also be helped (I think) in the ratings because Bachelor is having their episode where all the rejects get together and have their show.

Another change.....November 20th, AR3 will air at 8PM not 9PM. Yes, that is the night of the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show....They moved it to 9PM, probably because of the flak they got from moving it to 10PM to 8PM....plus it only goes up against the first hour of the Bachelor 2 finale...which is better than the 2nd hour...This is confirmed BTW...I checked TVGuide.com, and this is shown as correct.

well good news or bad depending on how you look at it......The Survivor episode that will air before AR3 the night before Thanksgiving will be the "halftime highlights" episode....so AR3 might not get as much of a bump as we had hoped....but I do think next week moving it to 8PM is good...if it does well, they might move it there later....plus it completely avoids any of Bachelor2's finale, which can only help.

Well, this is for the future and AR4 most likely....They are moving "Angel" on the WB from Sundays to Wednesdays at 9, replacing "Birds of Prey", which has been cancelled. For those who don't know, "Angel" is the spinoff from "Buffy the Vampire Slayer"....it's in its fourth season, and has a cult following, much like "Buffy"...

Ok....the lastest schedule shifts....I think were set now...

-Fox is moving "Fastlane" from Wednesdays to Fridays...will be putting comedies on Wednesdays at 9-10

-ABC will be putting "Bachelorette" and "Bachelor 3" on Wednesday nights...and most likely reality shows and specials will be on ABC 9-11 Wednesdays (Celeb Mole perhaps? I don't know)...Bachelorette starts January 8th...

-CBS will start "Star Search" on Thursdays at 8 until "Survivor" restarts in Feburary....but might move it to Wednesdays once Survivor starts...that is unknown.

-I'm figuring AR4 will start late Feb-Early March....such as last year. So if that holds, they would probably miss Bachelorette, but will most likely be up against Bachelor 3.

So the Schedule for this timeslot will proabably be...

ABC-Bachelorette, followed by most likely Bachelor 3, but possibly Celeb Mole.

CBS-AR4, but perhaps Star Search until AR4 starts up.

NBC-West Wing

FOX-The Bernie Mac Show and Cedric the Entertainer Presents

WB-Angel

UPN-Twilight Zone


I'm really not sure about this......I think CBS will be happy with a strong third place, bacause of the competition, but the FOX counter-programming could be a good move by them.

the press release for the final episode on 12/18


"They're Slithering to the Finish Line Like the Rest of Us!"
120 min.
The globe-trotting reality series concludes its third edition as the final three teams dash to the finish line and attempt to claim the $1 million first-place prize. “We've been extremely lucky now for the third time to create a great finish,” says host Phil Keoghan. “You're going to see teams at the highest highs and the lowest lows.” At press time, the pairs still in the hunt are friends Flo and Zach, twin brothers Derek and Drew, dating couple John Vito and Jill, married parents Teri and Ian, and brothers Ken and Gerard. The final leg of the 41,000-mile race, which includes stops in Singapore and Vietnam, will end at an undisclosed location in the U.S.
