Is it just my local affiliate (WPRI Providence) or were there extreme technical difficulties with today's Price Is Right broadcast nationwide? Constant drop outs in the feed made the program almost unwatchable. My CBS affiliate even switched over to the local FOX station and simulcast that for a while since the CBS feed was so bad. Fox and CBS are owned by the same company here in town.

I turned it on only a minute or so after you posted, and it's fine here in Lansing.

Guess it's just a local problem then. Right now there isn't even any sound. I'm watching "One Away" with just a picture.

I wonder if WPRI was jinxed for bumping Price for Frasier this past Saturday (4/24)?

LOL. That will serve them right! They better not bump this upcoming Saturdays special or the whole Damn station may get knocked off the air on Monday. ;-)
