I'll provide links to the NFL coverage maps so you'll know which areas are affected by possible overruns. Most of the country in the Eastern and Central time zones will be able to see the premiere on time at 8 p.m.

Heee....the good news is that peach isn't in Atlanta right now and if that list is correct, I may be safe for actually seeing the show.

The bad news is I can't remember if I programmed my Tivo for 13 or not.... :'(

Now what are my viewing options if I am the only one behind though? It is lonesome watching it without y'all! :angel:

Ken, I'm sure you can appreciate that having conflicting information(even though we are only talking 5 to 15 minutes on a usual Sunday afternoon) on times is not good. See that your statement that the San Siego/Oakland and Buffalo/St.Louis games are at 405pm (correct) contrasted with the listings that say it's 400pm (not correct). We are fortunate that tomorrow's late afternoon CBS games are scheduled to start as early as possible, since that will maximize the probability that 60 Minutes will start at 7pm EDT.

ap, ap, ap.

There certainly is a possibility that either or both games can finish by 7 p.m., but last week, the New Orleans-Denver game which started at 4:05 p.m. on Fox finished at 7:25 p.m. because of a high scoring game.

I have the NFL Sunday Ticket package on DirecTV and I can tell you none of the 4:05 p.m. ET games this season have ended on time.

That can't be much fun for everyone in those places. I don't remember ever having an overrun (and I've been watching since TAR10).

Ok, it's not looking good.

Here is the map for the late games.

The entire eastern half of the country has either New England-San Francisco, Cincinnati-Dallas or Buffalo-Arizona.

We'll definitely have an NFL overrun since the late games start at 4:15 p.m. and CBS will start the primetime lineups for the entire Eastern and Central time zones together meaning if one game ends early, it'll switch to another game. The earliest 60 Minutes can start will be around 7:20 p.m. You can go from there.

I have CBS Eye-lert on my cell phone so once I get notice, I'll post TAR's start time here.

Do you live in the western half of the US? You don't have to worry if that's the case. TAR will start at its regular time for you.

Yeah. Keep quiet youknowwho!  :lol: :lol:

By the way, Buffalo-Arizona was on pace to end early, but is now dragging along. Both New England-Niners and Cincinnati-Dallas are dragging a bit as the Bengals are keeping their game closer than expected.

The Dallas/Cincinnati coverage just ended so I would say TAR would be delayed about 30 mins now. (Yay Cowboys!)  :lol:  At least for our area anyway...
