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!

You know what Adam, for a guy who has proven constantly that he doesn't "get it"....you should refrain from dissing other posters.

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.

NOTE TO ADAMJK: Don is being FUNNY!!! Please don't take this seriously and go to the voting booths on Saturday, as they'll be closed.

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.
