You may have noticed the day switcheroo... Tuesday, Wednesday and Sunday... not a real shocker since Survivor will be running per usual on Thursday nights, and the networks wanna spread out the new programming...
Gotta wonder if this will alter the schedule in terms of comp days though... We shall see. ;)

wooohooo, thanks for the update.
ReplyDeleteHuh. It's a good thing I mistakenly clicked on my Dish bookmark or I would've had no idea. Wait, maybe that was for the better. Now I'm going to obsess over any developments WAAAAY earlier than I would've normally.
ReplyDeleteGah.
I think a Sat-Mon-Wed rotation makes most sense. Unfortunately, Sat night is where TV shows go to die.
so here's the question...in the summer they hang out outside all the time, what will they do in the winter???
ReplyDeleteOMG, where have i been??? I can't wait! And I know you ladies will keep us very well informed!
