What?? We might start on time this week?? :lol:

Even though we are a spoiler board, we do NOT want to have the episode spoiled while it is airing.

If you are watching anything but an EST US feed, it is your responsibility to be sure you are not ahead of us if you want to post in this thread. Canadian and Asian satellite feeds are often way ahead of us.

 SO PLEASE ** NO WIKI UPDATES or Satellite Viewer updates** to be posted before the show is done airing East Coast time! Anyone breaking the rule is at risk of being banned. 

Otherwise, come watch with us for the best weekly viewing party in town!! :party:

I hope to have a live steam or at least links  posted HERE . For those who are not on the East Coast time, you can follow along and PLEASE help update as the show unfolds! Everyone is more than welcomed and appreciated!! :wohoo:

I have a feeling there is going to be a pretty long delay tonight. The football game still has about 11 minutes left in the 3rd quarter.

good luck cocoa -

right now the Tennesse Titans are ahead by one touchdown, there is 1:54 min left, and Cowboys are within scoring to tie the game -

we're talking about 40 min passed the "6:00" time for 60 minutes!  so TAR is at least going to be 40 min late tonight...  :duno:

Tennessee/Dallas is over but they switched over to San Diego/Oakland. Under a minute left in that one.

I hate that they switched over to San Diego/Oakland!  I hate when they do this!  Unless they for once skip 60 Minutes and go straight to The Amazing Race.  Then I'll be happy!

You may not like Football.  But football is one of the reasons TAR is still alive to this date.  With almost no exceptions nights with a football delay helps TAR's ratings.  Actually (I don't think there is an exception).  Though the help tonight will be less then normal as the best push from overruns is 15-40 minutes.  This will be close to an hour.

Belle they will never do that (at least not in the next couple seasons), TAR generates more money per minute then 60 minutes, but 60 minutes is such an established part of CBS' image that it will never happen.

THough if it did.  It would pretty much give TAR its most successful episode in terms of viewers and demos that the show has ever had (and easily).  But it will never, ever happen.

I agree too It is really bad. I hate football anyway and I don't watch it and they should do something else because I AM SICK OF TAR BEING DELAYED ALMOST EVERY TWO/THREE WEEKS!!!!!

I have wondered if it was possible for CBS to cut back some of 60 Minutes on nights that Football goes over just a little.

The entire show is made up of segment pieces.  If cutting one segment out would put the schedule back on track, then 60 Minutes has and extra segment they can use  at a later air-date and would have to produce one less. Over all cost of production would go down and the schedule  would be closer to accuracy.

but im a librarian not a TV guy so I'm sure there is some reason not to do this.

I understand.  I just wish either 60 Minutes would go or that they switched TAR to a different day.

60 minutes is here for the long haul.  It will remain on Sunday in that time period long after it stops actually making money.  CBS will take a lose before moving that show.  That show more then any other is CBS. 

They will not risk pissing off their brand name show for a reality program.  It wont happen.

As for moving to TAR to a different night.  TAR has enjoyed great success and stability being on Sunday.  That wouldn't be the case on any other night. 

For the long term health of the show, this time slot has been very, very good to us.

As I mentioned in another thread, the overrun is 58 minutes; I believe that may be the second longest overrun TAR had on Sunday since it moved to Sundays.

The contract with the NFL says that they have to switch over to the last game being played. Btw, the NFL makes CBS a lot more money than TAR......so get used to it. I really cant really believe so many people whine over such a small matter. Year after year, TAR after TAR.....same constant whining every week. Grow up people.

Let's do a little walk down memory lane.

TAR's ratings on Sundays with sports overruns (fall or spring) are higher than when it starts at the cheduled time.  It's wierd, and odd, but it's been a very consistent pattern. Even the demo numbers are higher (18-49).  It was this way with the first two episodes this season.

If it boosts the show's profitability and numbers, I won't be copmplaining about it.  All I'm concerned about is seeing it, and savind a complete copy for my archives.  Even if it means waiting over an hour, as was the case at one point last year.
