They're putting off "Between Heartbeats" again? Argh!

And what up with so many shows airing episodes as new, new, repeat, repeat, repeat, new, repeat, lather, rinse, repeat? People start seeing repeats and some will think the season is over or something and not tune in for the new stuff.

I know. I saw all those press releases - they're doing it with NCIS as well. I mean, hello folks, February, sweeps period! Let's have new shows!

[k8t85.livejournal.com]

Huh? Why would they do this? I've already seen Between Heartbeats...I won't say how. But I'm still dissappointed that it won't be on this week.

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Wish I could! but don't tell me anything. No spoilers... lord knows why. I've sent off a question on Twitter to a Flashpoint person; hope to get a reply (fingers crossed)

[k8t85.livejournal.com]

Nope, no spoilers from me. It's an episode well worth watching unspoiled.

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

And CBS willing, I will one day see it! ;)

Well that sucks. I hate it when they start messing with TV shows like this.

Call it left over bitter feelings from my Firefly days, but it never bodes well for a show when networks mess stuff up like this. Sooner or later the audience is just going to get sick of not knowing what's going on and they'll abandon ship.

Stupid networks.

I know. I'm glad I found out now so I won't go yes yes yes! when 9pm rolled around, but then I'll see it on the 13th (sure had better not move it again!)

bad weather in Toronto

One of the reasons I think they are showing repeats is that the weather in Toronto has been really really bad and I think it has messed up their shooting schedule.

Didn't realize they had bad weather up there. I know the UK is going under snow, and of course in the US, we're all going down the drain so it doesn't matter about the weather ;)
