A SMALL ME-TV OOOOOOOOPS!

Now we may know where ME-TV gets its episodes of "Mission: Impossible"!

Suddenly this morning, after the end credits, a screen came up which appeared to be the menu off of the recently released DVD version of "Mission: Impossible" and then a SONY Entertainment logo animation hastily suddenly came up as opposed to the usual "Paramount/CBS Syndication" logo animation.

That show after nearly 40-50 years still really hangs together, methinks...

I'd sure love to see a reunion of the remaining cast members still alive before they leave us for the ultimate "Mission: Impossible": Barbara Bain, Martin Landau, Steven Hill, and Peter Lupus. Peter Graves passed in 2010.
 
A blunder you're probably never going to see after an episode of "WKRP"... :eek:

I don't know where the Sony logo came from, but it wasn't from the Mission Impossible DVD's, or any film or tape that MeTV carries of the program. CBS still hold the rights to the program. If anything, maybe someone in Chicago hit the wrong button & may have shown the Sony logo from a MeToo program (Weigel holds the Chicago rights to shows from the Sony library). Afterall, they're programming This TV & MeTV for a national audience, along with MeToo, U Too, & The U for Chicago (all from their facilities in Chicago). I don't know if they're still programming South Bend's ABC, CW, & MNT stations from Chicago, or if they moved those operations to South Bend.
 
It looked like a mega switching error....overall they are pretty clean, although things get really sloppy when they switch from the local avails to the national feed.
