>>I'm at CBS Master Control in NY. I'm reasonably sure that if there was a
better way to finish on schedule, considering everybody's concerns, we'd
be doing it.
You can't please all the people all the time. Somebody will bitch about it
if you push back the start time, others will bitch about a JIP. I used to
work at a CBS-TV affiliate in Georgia. I hated us having the 11 pm news at
midnight. Anyone who cared about the news was watching the other channels,
we should have just shown reruns of Andy Griffith. I hated staying at the
station until 1am! But that wasn't a beef with the network, that was will
the local folk.
>>multiple networks throughout evening prime time. I've seen as many as
three different regions (not including the West Coast), each running
slightly different.
THAT'S gotta be fun. I had a chance to walk through NBC Skypath 10 or so
years ago. Felt like I was in the starship Enterprise.
