Epi Schedule

[larue]

Got this from ER Exchange...Gonna be a LONG spring.....sigh

NBCUMV has more information about the schedule for the coming weeks. TPTB had scheduled a repeat of "Someone to Love" for March 1st but now seem to have changed to air episodes of their Thursday night comedy episodes.

Feb. 22 From Here to Paternity
Mar. 1 preempted for a comedy block
Mar. 8 preempted for a repeat of premiere episode of The Black Donelleys
Mar. 15 preempted for a new series, Raines
Mar. 22 preempted again for this new series which then it moves to another night.

We have two other spoiled episodes, "Photographs and Memories" and "Family Business," plus 3 or 4 more episodes to go before the end of May sweeps in the following time frame. The number depends if TPTB create 22 or 23 episodes (or more) for this season.

Mar. 29
Ap. 5
Ap. 12
Ap. 19
Ap. 26 sweeps
May 3 sweeps
May 10 sweeps
May 17 sweeps

My guess is that TPTB might schedule the 5 or 6 (or more) episodes to run consecutively in order to try to recapture the audience awareness and thus tuning behavior -- to build the largest audience possible for the May sweeps. Shrugging.

Thanks for posting that Larue, I had been curious for a while, and it looks like we will be new ER-less all of March, which makes me sad... but having 5-6+ episode later on might make up for it, it's just the waiting will kill me LOL

Phew ....this is really good to know. We booked our family holiday for 6th June and while i will miss the finale when it does actually air over here i will still have been able to see/download the episode when it airs in the States.


Thanks Larue !

Looiks like NBC is really going to be pushing The Black Donnelys. They plan to air it's premiere in the Sunset Strip time slot on Mondays and then repeat it next Thursday in ER's time slot.
