On The Cover?

Just channel-surfed to PAX to check out another episode of OTC, but America's Funniest Home Videos was on. Has PAX moved the show already?

I noticed on the PAX schedule on their site, OTC was listed for Monday and Tuesday this week, and AFV is listed at 8pm thereafter.

Yep, just checked it myself thru next week. Could PAX have already canceled the show? That's gotta be some kind of record for a 5 day a week show.......

Correction: OTC is a 4 day a week show (Mon.-Thurs.)

AFHV is in OtC's slot through June and July.

Is this a record for shortest-lived 5-a-week game show if it indeed has been canned?

Maybe PAX decided to wait and air it along with Balderdash when it premieres in July.

Rather odd to see America's Funniest Home Videos replacing On The Cover.

Oh well, as long as it means more classic AFHV, I'm all for it.  (I'm a big fan of the early years with Saget hosting.)

I'm not sure what happened. Maybe the ratings for that show were so bad that they switched it back to AFV. Or maybe they put it on hiatus until July to make it air with Balderdash. We'll have to wait and see...

Well according to Pax's site, the schedule for the fall has it listed to pair with Balderdash Mon-Fri, though this was from May 11th, so this may be a mistake,  but we'll see. Also, the site for the show,  has a show taping day on May 20th. So who knows at this point

Hey, believe it or not, it may not be a record. Remember Genesis with Jim Mckrell? I don't know if that was intended to be just a special or not. Their first game show, Reel to Reel, was canceled after about 50(?) or so episodes(can anyone fill me in here?) because of circumstances out of PAX's control, which were: the production company's problems, as well as the prizes that were never really awarded.

This kinda stinks, because our affiliate in St. Louis doesn't even carry the game. So at least you guys will be able to see it.

 Genesis was a pilot that was aired to test the waters, if I'm not mistaken....

I was pretty sure I heard commercials for On The Cover today on one of the local radio stations played in our office. Whatever caused this decision to not run the show tonight must have been done in a hurry....

 Well congratulations, Adam, you just discredited your statement with your statement. What will you think of next?

  • Just leave the set; that’d be terrific.
