Football doubleheader runovers on FOX & CBS.

[mgsports]

Yes I have but that's on S. Dish only. Okay on Sunday's in NFL season CBS and FOX should schedule Sports Programming in the Evenings like College Basketball Game.

Also Unsolved Mysteries is on Saturday's.

When? In 1992?

Bob Stack is DEAD....he's DEAD....he's really DEAD!

Re: Football doubleheader runovers on FOX & CS.

Frankly, I suspect the network is happy with things as they are. They get to crow weekly about the high ratings for both the football overrun and 60 Minutes.

I suspect that as well.

A lot of stations aren't happy when their 11PM (10 central) news gets pushed closer to midnight, with whatever they run after the news pushing closer to 1AM (a lot times its just infomercials)

If I am watching TV on Sunday evening at 10:00, and the CBS affiliate is behind schedule because of football overruns, I will switch to another channel for my late local news. (Probably not NBC because they have Sunday night football.) I am not going to stay up an extra half-hour or so, just to see the same news that I can see on another station. Just as an aside, most of the local channels have Sunday night newscasts that only last about 15 minutes or so, with the rest of the hour devoted to extended sports talk shows, where they recap the day's football events, usually along with Saturday's college football results, and then fill with any other sports news items that may be of interest. It is usually 11:00 p.m. here (even without the delays) by the time the news/sports is over, and they usually go on to reruns or something after that.

Well, I hardly looked at AMW or Cops so I didn't notice the move. For that matter I hardly looked at Unsolved... either.

But mgsports still needs to explain his Unsolved Mysteries reference.

So why doesn't CBS do like Fox and schedule a postgame show to fill in the time until 8 PM ET and put 60 Minutes on at that time, then have one less program on during football season? Or does that make too much sense? :

It makes sense except that C(BS) has actual viewers on the weekends whereas Fox...... ;D

You're wrong. 'Animation Domination' on Sunday nights brings a significant chunk of the 18-49 viewers Fox has specialized in.

That would be the demo that is in debt up to their gunnels, needs the services of ambulance chasers and massage schools and has very little discretionary income to spend, right?

You're still wrong, old man assumptions aside.

they still have $ for cheap unhealthy food like Taco Bell and Pepsi unlike those 50+ who will be drinking Pepsi or Coke until they drop dead according to outdated research from the 50s
