CBS Sunday 10/18 - NFL going over 75 minutes on East coast

[gshumaker]

Set your tivos accordingly

60 minutes started at 8:15pm

Just caught it when I went to record Amazing Race. I record Amazing Race and Three Rivers and usually add a pad of 1 hour on 3 Rivers, I may have to up it to 1 1/2 standard padding. Stupid CBS and 60 minutes.

So much for my "football will never go longer than an hour over" thinking.

I just switched over at 9 Central time to check that Cold Case was recording-- which should have been the last 15 min of 60 minutes, instead I found the last Amazing Race challenge ending and team number two checking in!! WTF?!? Did they cut 60 minutes short?

9:15 Central time, Amazing Race is over and Three Rivers is just starting. I saw 60 minutes start at 8:15, so what happened?

I was watching that game, it went well into overtime. It was long.

I just checked my Amazing Race recording, and yup. TAR starts at 15 minutes in, after the last 15 minutes of 60 minutes. The game only affected other _network_ programming by 15 minutes. I explain below...

Our listings were... (I am in the mountain time zone).
2-5 NFL football
5-530 storm stores
530-6 local news
6 60 minutes
7 TAR
8 Three Rivers

I bet our local station just dumped Storm Stories and Local News, effectively correcting the schedule overrun by an hour.

Did anyone see last night's episode of Cold Case "Soul" on the East Coast? WRAL-TV Raleigh decided not to air it and go to their local news at 11:15 PM. They haven't posted anything on their website about another airing so I guess it's toast. Wonder if it will be available on Netflix?

Our local news said CBS pulled it from lineup, and it will be shown next Sunday. Tivos might not catch it next week, since it thinks it already recorded "Soul" this week. So tweek as needed.

Once the football game was close to an hour overrun they announced that they were dropping Cold Case from last night's lineup, at least on the east coast.

I noticed that Andy Whiner was missing from the end of 60 Minutes, and yet the following shows (except Cold Case) each still started 74 minutes late.

Our local news said CBS pulled it from lineup, and it will be shown next Sunday. TiVos might not catch it next week, since it thinks it already recorded "Soul" this week.That's good news! I didn't hear any announcements like that during the overtime game or my local (Twin Cities) news.

Thread title says what happened. Football ran 75 minutes over.

Dick Enberg definitely started mentioning the revised schedule every few minutes beginning at about 7:55 (4:55 for me on the West Coast). Dropping one of the four Sunday night shows is CBS's standard operating procedure whenever a game is going to go past 8:00 Eastern.

I, too, am on the West Coast and only noticed that there was a problem when turning on Cold Case which showed that the episode Soul had been recorded but it was actually a repeat of the Tupperware sales episode (don't know its actual title).

Does anyone know when the Soul episode will air? I don't want to miss it because of the thirty days rule.

Thanks

CBS was airing the NE blowout of Tenn for us on the late game, then switched to the Bills/Jets game that went OT. I, too, pad TAR by one hour, but added 30 minutes when I saw how late it was going...
