TAR 9 Teams - Speculation Thread

<< < (30/34) > >>

claude_24hrs:
The finale that I think to be premiere on May 30, 1 week after the Annual Country Music Awards. (U.S. time), is the week after the finale of American Idol 5.

Mister RC:
Given how the Premiere date starts exactly 52 weeks (a.k.a. one day earlier than last year), I believe that the possibility of a May 9 finale is pretty strong.  The only possible scenario is for there to be a two-hour mid-season Special Episode (NEL followed by an elimination), and for the recap to air on a different night (Wednesday).

Here's a sample: If the schedule matches TAR7 and its schedule, TAR9 could look something like this:

02/28/06: TAR9-01
03/07/06: TAR9-02
03/14/06: TAR9-03
03/21/06: TAR9-04
03/28/06: TAR9-05 & 06 (NEL then Philimination)
04/04/06: TAR9-07
04/11/06: TAR9-08A
04/18/06: TAR9-08B
04/25/06: TAR9-09
05/02/06: TAR9-10
05/09/06: TAR9-11 & 12 (NEL then Race to the Finish Line)


This is just speculation, but if TPTB stick to its 11-episode format, this is possible.  Even with TAR airing at 10, there could still be a two-hour episode somewhere in the middle (if not March, in April, switching places with the TBC episodes).  It makes sense because who wants to sit through several 1-hour Non-elimination episodes?  At least that's what I hope doesn't happen.  But it's possible that there aren't any 2-hour mid-season episodes (and there should be since TARFE had one and this version goes back to the glory days of TAR we hope) and the finale is on May 16, but with Survivor's finale likely to air on May 7 (which doesn't seem possible now, since it looks like the season could end as early as April 23 or 30), I would assume that TPTB would want both big reality shows ending around the same time or in the same week.

I guess it's too early to tell.  I'm not a detective or someone that's on the inside and doesn't know the schedule yet.  I'm just a TAR fan who has a big imagination and predicts/speculates a lot of stuff based on what I have or see.  I do have to say that we might want to rule out May 30, because that's on day removed from Memorial Day (obversed that is, since May 30 is the real Memorial Day), and likely out of the sweeps period.
