It's not officially TAR season until the show gets delayed

TAR WILL be delayed tonight in the USA because CBS still is airing golf coverage right now when 60 minutes is suppose to start.

Any delays today?

Not that I know of. But I won't be surprised if the show is delayed.

CBS is on schedule tonight.

Just a reminder for our international members that next week, the US and Canada return to Daylight Savings Time until November. It's hard to believe since so much of the US has been in an extremely cold and snow/wet winter, and there are signs it may not end until at least the end of March. (For the US east coast CBS feed, that means it would be at -4 GMT rather than -5 GMT.)

CBS has just announced that the TAR 24 All Star finale will air on May 18th at 8pm EDT/PDT. The season finales of The Good Wife and The Mentalist also air on that night.

The Survivor finale, for the first time since forever, does not air on the following Sunday the 25th (which would be the Sunday of the Memorial Day weekend, but on Wednesday, May 21st with the usual three hour block including the reunion show.

I think if Survivor stayed on Sunday, it would have aired on the 18th (and TAR would've landed on 5/11 conflicting with Mother's Day events).  While I hate waiting longer than typical (in the event something happens, which, whatever), for those that do TARcon or something during the finale (in place of that if it's even happening) they'll be with family and still get to stick to their finale plans.

Sucks that it'll only be a one-hour finale though (that really sucked for the AR11 finale)

The fact that Survivor started the Wednesday after TAR this spring was due to the Sochi Games. And the end game in the May sweeps and the fact that Memorial Day weekend leaves only three weekends in May for sweeps had everything to do with the untraditional scheduling for Survivor's finale.

In other news, a heads up about this coming Sunday on CBS:
Per the CBS Eye-lert:

CBS Sports live coverage of NCAA Basketball on Sunday could possibly delay start times for 60 Minutes, The Amazing Race, The Good Wife, and The Mentalist.

CBS is disclosing their tip-times for Sunday. It's a 5:15 start for UNC vs. Iowa State. Basically a 2-hr run in real time equates to a blowout/quick game.  So expect the Sunday line-up to start very, very late (later than usual). With delays three times in the next four weeks, I'm a little baffled as to why CBS won't emulate their autumn double-header schedule to have 60 Minutes set to start at 7:30 at the earliest.

Mister RX, if the Round of 64 these past two days are any indication, those times may be generous.
There have been a record six overtime games in these two days (and there were only two such games throughout the entire 2012 and 2013 tournaments). And you can count on one hand, literally, how many games were not close (four of the first 31 as I type this and the last game in San Diego is about 6 minutes left but isn't a blow out, either.)

So people need to monitor the situation, and I promise to post as we get close to the normal TAR air time on the east coast feed. The local station for me is the "local" home station for one of the teams in the Iowa State-North Carolina game which is the last one on CBS that afternoon, so I will not be able to avoid knowing about any runovers in the tournament.

A delay of at least 15 minutes should be expected tonight, but most likely longer. I am certain that TAR will not be on time.

That depends. The third and final game of the afternoon for CBS is being played in San Antonio, while the first two games were in St. Louis; so UNC and Iowa State will be warming up on time as the first game today in San Antonio. The other five games are on the three cable channels that are involved (TBS, TNT, TruTV) and won't affect CBS programming, but might affect the number of eyeballs.

CBS has pushed the tip of UNC/Iowa State back 5 minutes to 5:20 (like they did for the third game, Michigan/Texas, yesterday). I'd expect it to be pushed back a little further if the current game runs long.

Guess we'll know shortly. Last year we got a start time of 8:45, but with OT and whatever, well, the chances of 60 Minutes starting at 7:00 are better than someone winning a billion for going 63-0 in their picks.

Speaking of that billion dollar prize, all of those brackets got eliminated by the end of the round of 64.

At the moment it's about 7:20pm ET, and with 3 minutes left, the Iowa State-North Carolina game is now tied, so anything, including overtime is possible. It looks as if TAR will be delayed by at least 30 minutes, and could be up to an hour.
