That closes the circle, as the 11:00 pm Chevy Chase Show was about as bad an idea as the 10:00 Jay Leno show. On Sun, 28 Aug 2022 at 4:57 PM ko...@frontiernet.net wrote: > Fox built up to full prime time at one point after they started but gave > the 10 pm weekday hour back to affiliates in

For a few years in the late 1980s/early 1990s, Fox did have Sunday night programming all the way from 7:00 to 11:00 Eastern. ("Married... With Children," for example, had a couple of stints at 10:00.) > On Aug 28, 2022, at 1:04 PM, Brad Beam wrote: > > On the flip side, Fox in its 36 years

On the flip side, Fox in its 36 years has never decided to advance the proverbial ball past the 10/9 Central line. (And yes, by this point, it would take a lot of concessions to have their affiliates give back the hour.) From: tvornottv@googlegroups.com [mailto:tvornottv@googlegroups.com] On

This week, NBC did run the first episode of the new Peacock series "The Resort" after the "America's Got Talent" result show, the best platform the network can offer during the summer (just ask the producers of the "Password" reboot). I'm sure they ended the show with "if you want to know what

I don’t disagree with you; giving up on 10:00 pm would be a public admission that the days of broadcast television being the primary mass media in the US are over. I’m just saying that, even so, it would not be a worse move than programming the Jay Leno show every weeknight at 10:00 pm. On Sun,

This move would surely highlight the beginning of the end of network television. Sure, NBC saves some money on not having to produce five hours of television a week, but they're basically saying that they can't make anything worth watching any more for those five hours. In the short term, maybe
