Has anyone noticed that ME-TV is seemingly doing the old WTBS/Atlanta thing and starting their shows at five minutes after the top or bottom of the hour? Are they trying to accomodate viewers who can't find anything else to watch at the hour and then turn to ME-TV to watch their show at the beginning????

KGTV in San DIego the same thing....
KCCI 8 does the same thing. I read something that some me tv networks carry News at 9 or 10 depending where your at for 35 minutes and that's why the shows start 5 minutes later.
It's listed the same way on their online schedule, and it's on Monday through Friday, but not on weekends.
Just guessing but they may be doing this to line up with CBS, NBC, and ABC starting their late night talk shows 5 minutes later. But it looks like they would start it at 11:35 with Perry Mason, and I don't know why it's necessary to run it as late as 4:05 with Barnaby Jones.
