Title: 2018-19 Season Finale Thread
Post by: brianhenke on June 04, 2019, 10:51:14 PM
  Here are the 2018-19 season finale dates. TPIR has a question mark on them because new episodes are known to have been aired during the summer months.

  Funny You Should Ask: May 24(still not seen here)
  WWTBAM (SERIES FINALE): May 31
  Wheel of Fortune: June 7
  TPIR: June 20 (?) (according to priceisright.com)
  LMAD: July 8
  Jeopardy!: July 26

Did you even look at the page you cited?  PIR.com's calendar (http://www.priceisright.com/calendar/) lists the airdates for every new show this season.  It clearly shows some skipped episodes airing over the summer, and it clearly has a new episode on June 21.

For anyone who cares:  The shows on June 24 and 25 were pre-empted in December; the show on June 28 was pre-empted in February; July 4 is the actual season finale; and July 17 was shuffled off the day after Christmas so they could plug in the first responders episode, which actually comes right before the July 4 show.

"When is TPIR's season finale" can have different answers depending on how nerdy you want to get, but "June 20" is obviously not one of them.

Remember when game shows did 52 weeks of originals a year?

LMAD: July 8
This season finale was May 31, but with a caveat similar to TPiR's.

I have an idea but it’s not very family-friendly...

It does if you realize that the airdates continue beneath the site banner at the bottom. For some strange reason, in Firefox, none of the airdates past 6/20 are visible unless you cut and paste the page's contents into a text editor. (Edge and IE have a similar problem, but both "stop" at 6/21.)

This is actually a fair point.  It usually fixes itself in Chrome if you refresh the page, but I've been doing that for so long, I don't really even think about it anymore.

The episode scheduled for 6/17 was replaced with a repeat for an unknown reason (usually, it is because it includes a trip to somewhere that had something bad happen there recently - e.g. Virginia Beach); no replacement date has been announced yet.
