Title: J! in October
Post by: tmq800 on September 14, 2004, 09:51:54 PM
Does anyone know about the upcoming Presidential debates and how they will affect J! and Wheel during late September and October here on the west coast?

Right now, the three presidential debates are set for Thursday, September 30; Friday, October 8; and Wednesday, October 13.  The vice presidential debate is set for Tuesday, October 5.

Because the networks have not announced their plans for coverage of said debates, I can't tell you which shows (if any) will be preempted or when.  However, I can say with certainty that even if Jeopardy! and/or Wheel should happen to be preempted, you will survive.  That will hold true even if there's no summary immediately, or an hour later, or two hours later, or ten hours later.

Forget about now. Wheel and J! air right after the debates.  But what about November when most of the ABC stations will carry college football Thanksgiving weekend, and J! gets bumped on those stations?  How will they reschedule J! if Ken Jennings reaches $2 million?

I can't hold my breath for one month.  And I will be shocked if Ken's $2 million is reached on the night of the election.

Sure you can, tmq.  In fact, I'm positive that if you don't breathe for the month of November, everyone here will be so impressed, they'll never give you grief again!

Please try. You can work your way up. Start practicing now by just holding it for a week.
To answer your other question, Charles Gibson said last night before the debate started that if Ken Jennings hits $2M, the election will be postponed until Saturday so that Jeopardy! isn't pre-empted.

You think that child is old enough to vote?

I'd be more worried if he were old enough to drive.

I do believe, as scary as it may sound, that he is at least 18, so he's old enough to vote AND drive.

Well Aaron, you are wrong. I am just 16 years old. Though I will be 17 next month. BTW, I did realize that you were kidding about the Jeopardy thing Aaron.

To tvxman: about you telling me not to diss other posters, I don't see anything wrong with it. You guys all diss on me when it's warranted, why can't I do the same?

Talk about whoosh.
His point is that you commonly don't understand things. You really don't have the right to tell someone else the same thing. Pot, kettle...yeah. That.

Y'ever heard the saying about "the pot calling the kettle black"?

Beaten to the punch by the above posters....twice!

Any other questions, Adam? I'm looking forward to your next post, which will likely say: "I still don't think I was wrong".

I'm not saying I am not wrong here, but my point is, that IMHO, no matter who makes the mistake, they should be dissed if it's warranted, and it shouldn't matter who does the dissing.

Adam,

Since you (again) didn't take Chris's advice, maybe this will help...

Definition of "The Pot Calling the Kettle Black" (http://\"http://www.goenglish.com/ThePotCallingTheKettleBlack.asp\")

It just looks ridiculous for you to accuse someone of doing something that you're frequently guilty of doing.  How can you lecture others on "missing the point" if you're not providing a good role model yourself?

David,

I think you're talking to a brick wall. To paraphrase the Fresh Prince, "Adam just don't understand"...

We will return to Breakfast With The Bickersons in just a moment.
But first, these words of advice for the poster who originated this topic:
Call the station which runs the program in your area tomorrow to learn the answer.
Okay? Okay.

I started noticing it after the last boxing match I attended. I also can't seem to stop calling people "Mother".
