Actually, the show is only airing on Saturday nights twice as a preview. It's schedule, courtesy of BuzzerBlog, and it's one of the more baffling scheduling moves I've seen...
August 1, 2009 – 9:00pm ET · August 8, 2009 – 9:00pm ET · September 12, 2009 – 2:00pm ET · October 31, 2009 – 3:30pm ET · November 14, 2009 – 3:00pm ET · December 12, 2009 – 3:00pm ET · January 2, 2010 – 2:30pm ET So it goes to Saturday afternoons on a once-a-month basis in September. The Peacock has had some success with the National Heads Up Poker Championship on Saturday afternoons, but that airs weekly. Why NBC didn't offer this as a regular alternative to reruns and "Cops" on Saturday nights (always thought a poker show would be a low- cost alternative if the networks tried "new" programming that night) is beyond me. It could have also aired after SNL in the "Best of Poker After Dark" slot.
