until sometime in the late 90s, KARE delayed Leno (and Conan afterwards, nothing between them at least) for syndicated Cheers reruns, they even delayed the infamous live Leno after the Cheers finale for the Cheers reruns

They preempted that for this?
- Thread starter Stanislav
- Start date
Imagine that, coverage of one of the most significant global events of our time.
The Charlotte Observer doesn't say WAXN is airing the game.
The game better be over by 8:30 because the newspaper says an NBA game is scheduled at that time.

Not a preemption per se today, but is today the first time in TV history that CBS is carrying a men's basketball game on the last weekend in February that involves a 3-win team so far? The "nightcap" (last of the tripleheader) this afternoon on CBS is UCLA (20-6) vs. Oregon State (3-23 this year despite last season's Elite Eight run). Unless CBS had this game scheduled prior to the season. Right now it's 43-28 UCLA at the half.
Unless they were committed to airing a Pac-12 game in the late slot--and without knocking on Oregon State, is it possible to do flex scheduling in NCAA basketball, or is it just football only? #3 Auburn vs. #17 Tennessee is the only game going on in the same slot as UCLA-OrSU--couldn't they have flexed UCLA over to ESPN and preempted that by picking up Auburn-UT instead? Even if it meant 2 consecutive SEC basketball games on CBS this weekend?
BTW--golf this weekend is on NBC (the Honda Classic) as due to NCAA basketball (especially with late-season intriguing games and conference tourneys, then March Madness) there likely won't be golf on CBS until the Masters. Then golf is on CBS nearly every weekend this summer until the start of college/NFL football--except at least the US Open (which aired on NBC last year).

It was over by around 8:05. They both aired it. WSOC only missed 5 minutes of NBA Countdown. WAXN missed the beginning of “The Goldbergs” episode “I Rode A Hoverboard.” Here’s proof that WAXN aired it.

I wonder why the Observer didn't list WAXN? Or why both stations needed to air it?
CBS did resume airing "Good Sam" after it was over, but I still had to see the end of the episode online. A lot of unpleasantness, so the reality is I wouldn't have missed much in that case.
Charlotte FC is playing at 7 pm Saturday March 19 and I've already seen WSOC-TV will air the game.
I had no idea the team would be so popular but I watched the news last night and that stadium was FULL. Record attendance for MLS. Fox aired the game nationally.

All non national games will be on WSOC and other stations in the area

EDIT: However, all three shows will return Thursday, but “Let’s Make a Deal” and “The Price is Right” will not be impacted in markets that air the game shows as a pair in the mornings. Meanwhile, “Let’s Make a Deal” will be preempted in markets where it is scheduled to air after “The Talk.”

WHY?? 👀
UEFA doesn't even get the audience that A TENNIS MATCH would get here
Why does CBS think ESPN confines the MLS mostly to ESPN+ ??
That's done by The weather channel. It's not an official government name.

Even so, they shouldn't be doing it
How much longer before CBS daytime gets preempted for the likes of PBR Bull Riding, drag racing, or the other weekend filler programming that usually comes on during NFL singleheader weekends when the local station doesn't have their game, and/or that airs prior to PGA Tour starting in the spring/summer around 3ET/2CT?
I'm not against naming major winter storms but it should be coming from the weather bureau not the weather channel.

Except what you're talking about is A LOCAL thing. What CBS did was A NATIONAL thing.
Yeah there's Paramount + & Pluto TV but not everyone has access to those things because not everyone has a Smart TV or a streaming device
Plus sports events play better on premium services like Paramount + than Soap Operas do (Which leaves me EVEN MORE DUMBFOUNDED as to WTF CBS was thinking 🥺😳👀)

Exactly as NWS is THE OFFICIAL source. TWC is not
Though IIRC correctly, the live Leno never aired, coverage of the GOP convention ran late, and unable to get the coverage pulled by NBC, Helen Kushnick pulled the live show, making NBC run a rerun in place of the much promoted post-convention live show.
