You can this posting date, so it took me this long to see the following post Re: The Gong Show":

Also, wasn't the Gong Show on a dual 1/12 and 4/3 dual feed when the Popsicle Twins epiosde aired so that stations in the Mid-West and East Coast who used the 4/3 feed didn't see it either?

For those of us who don't know --- what the heck is a 1/12 and 4/3 dual feed?

I believe the reference is to its being fed twice -- once at 1:00 Eastern/12:00 Central, and again at 4:00 Eastern/3:00 Central.

I can tell you that I lived in the midwest and the popsicle twins were seen here.

Okay. That makes sense. It just didn't register properly. If I had seen 1 and 4 pm ET then I probably would've gotten it.

Thanks again.
