They preempted that for this?

KDVR in Denver ran the Fox sports talk shows on 31.2 Antenna tv instead of on the main channel today. They ran their regular schedule on the main channel of news in the morning and TMZ Live, Inside Edition, Access Hollywood and Judge Judy. I did not even know about the change until I went to watch The Facts of Life at 12 pm and a sports talk show was on instead.
 
What about Jeopardy?
Wheel and Jeopardy air on different stations, have been for about half my existence, and air 90 minutes apart. If WKRN preempted Wheel, Jeopardy already had aired on WZTV and Big Bang Theory would have gotten bumped for weather since it's in Wheel's slot.
 
Wheel of fortune episode #S-8020 was pre-empted on WHO Des Moines (NBC) by a Chiefs Special and aired at 3:00 AM CT.

No new episodes were pre-empted on WPVI for Eagles hype. This year, they're doing a special on Saturday at 7:30 PM, pre-empting #S-7887RR.
 
WVUE (FOX New Orleans) is showing a Red Carpet special leading into the airing of Super Bowl Soulful Celebration from 6-7PM tonight, bumping Global Rise of Flag Football special to Sunday morning at 1:30 & the Ohio State/USC Women's Basketball game is preempted altogether to show the Pelicans game in Denver against the Nuggets as well as a half-hour local Super Bowl special before basketball coverage.
 
KGO (ABC/San Francisco) is bumping tonight's 4 Nations USA/Canada hockey game to its 7.2 subchannel to provide coverage of the San Francisco Chinese New Year parade which starts at 6 Pacific. Right now, they're airing World News Saturday followed by a local Chinese New Year special leading into the parade. They couldn't held off on showing it live & on delay & showed the hockey game because they did schedule a re-air of it at 8.

*Meant to say could've, but I'm sure y'all know what I meant.
 
I remember someone at the original SNL must have had a personal grudge against the Kennedys. One time they made an offensive comment about JFK'S assassination, another time about Chappaquiddick. They said if Ted Kennedy was driving a VW bug, it might not have happened. (since they can float in water supposedly). I understand they ran an apology for weeks after that. (So I was told)
Also remember Lorne Michaels coming out on stage one time and saying Andy Kaufman wasn't funny. That really surprised me. He was playing records and whatever else. Personally I thought that could have been handled in a different way, due to the coldness of it.
 
WBZ in Boston will be airing a special half-hour Patriots All Access at 7pm ET tomorrow evening which is Wheel's time slot so tomorrow night's episode of WOF will air at its regular time on WSBK replacing the first half-hour of The Big Bang Theory but chances are that my Bell Fibe Op might switch WSBK to CTV 2 Atlantic to simsub TBBT like it did before.

Jeopardy will air at its regular time on the main WBZ channel tomorrow evening.
 
BIG Saturday in Duluth, MN...Minnesota High School hockey section finals tomorrow!!
Noon-5 is 2 high school hockey section semis for 7AA on WDIO 10/WIRT 13 (ABC). The 2 NHL games move to MeTv 10-2 which is carried in HD as they do pre-empt stuff for high school sports and situations like this
6-11 is 2 high school hockey semis in 7A (7A section is just schools near Duluth). The normal programming gets moved to late night as MeTv is carrying the girls hockey finals (starts at 4pm)

So WDIO/WIRT
11AM start of NHL game (ironically its MN Wild)
Noon HS hockey (NHL moves to MeTV and is also being shown starting at 11)
6PM HS hockey (ABC programming moves to late night)

WDIO-DT2 MeTv has girls HS hockey finals starting at 4 so late NHL game will be cut short
 
Another change today and tomorrow in Minneapolis due to MN Gopher hockey

Friday the basketball game that starts at 7 CST gets moved to FOX9+ (My29) so the Gopher hockey game is on Fox 9
Saturday they move the MLS Soccer (MN ironically) at 3:30 and the 7pm basketball game to WFTC Fox 9+ (formerly My29) so the Gopher game which starts at 5 will be on FOX 9. When the Gopher hockey game is finished then FOX will join the basketball game

This shows how big high school hockey is in Duluth - The NBA game that was on ABC on Saturday got pre-empted!

Normally it would have been moved to WDIO DT2 MeTv (which is carried in HD) but the girls hockey game was on. But yeah it happens. You could watch it on ESPN+ if so desired.
