My CBS affiliate is showing tennis tomorrow. I suspect this is happening everywhere.I didn't see on their website any mention of replaying the episode.
Does anyone know anything about this? If they are going to show it at 3 in the morning, I'd like to know. My DVR guide says GL will be on but the website
says tennis so where my Sept. 14 GL should be, I'm going have some stupid tennis game (sorry, tennis fans)!!!

I just checked again and GL will be on in the Phoenix area from 2:15 am to 3:15 am Tuesday Sept. 15. I still think this is a travesty as they are only
pre-empting GL and ATWT. My need for CBS is dwindling to absolutely nothing. I hope their sponsors feel the heat from GL's cancellation and let the
executives over there have it.

I haven't seen or heard anything here about any preemption (K.O.W.) and usually they get it right up there so you know. I get the 10:00 am (EST) feed as
you all know so if the show starts out just fine here I'll give you a heads up in this thread. I hope we all get it!!

If it starts at 4 pm in NYC, that is 1 pm my time here in the Pacific Southwest ... just in time to cut off ATWT and GL.
So, I checked the schedule on the local CBS channel. That is precisely what they are doing, and there is no delayed broadcast of GL either. Don't get me wrong, we love tennis and that is one of the only three sports we watch (soccer and table tennis being the other two, and the last one is on TV only at Summer Olympics time). I understand that the rains in New York threw the US Open schedule off completely. What I want to know is, why oh why can't they broadcast GL on a delayed schedule this week of all weeks (or any week at all, if you ask me)? I am going to give them (CBS 2 aka KCBS 2) and ask them about this. |

Sigh ... I hope someone posts it on Youtube. The TV station does not provide a phone number for calls like mine, the only thing I could do was send them an
email requesting a delayed broadcast explaining why it is important *this* week.
I think that those who live in Mountain Time zone as well as may be parts of the Midwest where GL airs normally at 2 pm (it was so for us in Madison, Wisconsin) will also be affected. Do you folks realize this? |

I figure it is pre-empted here. I went ahead a recorded hoping that they will put the time it will be played on the screen so that I can record it. Usually
they put it on here sometime during the overnight hours if an unexpected pre-emption happens.

That's a great idea, to have set the recorder to catch that info. May be the station's website is not updated yet, but they might have that information
on screen! Thanks for mentioning this, Shelly, it is very helpful another respect too. I was going to record the tennis match, anyway, especially for my
husband who is out of the country at the moment, but forgot as I ran out the door very early this morning for work. Will go home at lunch time (coming up
shortly) and set the recorder to catch the Tennis - husband will be happier and I might also find out about GL's delayed broadcast (if any) along with
watching the game (can you tell I am an incurable optimist - there is not a cloud you can show me where I don't see a silver-lining
 )

I got lucky. Since tennis didn't start until 3 here it did not preempt GL.
