NBC starts "Tonight" at 11:34:30 and "Late Night" at 12:36:30.  Both my DVR and 
the L.A. Times TV highlights (which ultimately get their data from the same 
source) list the start times as 11:34 and 12:36.

Comedy Central does also submit exact start times to the listings data 
services, e.g., my DVR correctly shows "The Colbert Report" beginning at 8:31 
and "@Midnight" at 9:01.  (Outside of prime-time, Comedy Central's start times 
look even weirder, but as far as I can tell, they do stick to them.)
