Brian. No one gives two tin shi*s about another Wheel preemption in Cincinatti.  The tanker is much more important then seeing Tom Smith from Anchorage, Alaska telling Pat that he's a chia pet salesperson. Cincinatti has the Bengals and you.  My sympathies.

BTW, did you see a different Wheel episode tonight than the one that was posted at www.gameshownewsnet.com at 8 ET/5 PT?

DSmith, my 2 cents would go on the fact that if you got pre-empted for a group of cheerleader farting in the direction of a motorcycle group, or something of the sort, you'd be a little ticked off too!

Now granted, I was a little ticked myself tonight when a pre-empt happened here for Wheel to show flooding coverage that they pounded into the ground not a half hour earlier for an hour and a half. So I see the frustration. It isn't a reason to bash and criticize someone for complaining about a pre-empt!

It is when the chucklehead makes a mad dash to his computer each and everytime it happens, regardless of the nature of the interruption or the seemingly obvious fact that 99% of the population of this board couldn't give a tin rip about what happens in Cincinnati.

(I do wish Skyline Chili would go national, though. The stuff in the can on the website can't be the same as what you get at the stores.)

And if a game show is more important to you than an overturned tanker story, then you're seriously crazier than I thought. Take a boat on the Crimeafuggin River.

And you wonder why you don't get intelligent replies to your posts.

   I was just saying that Wheel was interrupted by WCPO to air a story about the overturned tanker and a town had to be evacuated. That's all.

I have to admit that Wheel is not something I watch often, but I think that Wheel watchers are also people who are interested in local news (otherwise they'd be watching cable, right?) so an interruption for news, no matter how minor, is alright with them.  If you're sitting at a high school gym with a thousand other people because you've been told to evacuate your home, that short news report becomes very important.

I agree, but here it gets preempted about once a month or so for some kind of school or cultural program.  There was one time shift in that stretch to cover for a prime time preemption (one show aired at 8PM CT, and the program that preempted "Wheel" reaired at 830).

Please explain why you continue to post things that you KNOW no one here cares about.

OK then. I misinterpreted it as you complaining about the interruption, and for my mistake, I shall spend my MLK weekend with Patrick Wayne and a rappin' dragon.

My apologies, hold my calls.

J! is getting pre-empted tomorrow on WPVI for a pep rally special for the Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl try. Is a pep rally more important than a game show? The tanker of course is more important, as it's a breaking news story.

For Eagles fans? Oh, hell yes. If I had WPVI, I'd gladly watch the pep rally show..

I think there's something wrong with me though, most people worry about real-world things? My chief worry has been the Eagles, all week long, and if they can win on Sunday and keep going.

KYW did a crawl during TPIR that the pep rally at Philly City Hall has been cancelled due to bad weather here today. If WPVI does indeed go forward with an Eagles special this evening(WCAU has one at 7PM EST), it won't include coverage of the pep rally.

And we know the Eagles don't lose in the playoffs in recent years until they get to the NFC championship game

[Craig Karlberg]

It's nice to know that I'm not the only Eagles fan here(arron & Zach).

I lucked out last night since I figured that station pe-empted J!(if in fact they did), I went shopping with my mom though I wanted to go see "Racing Stripes".  At least I got a CD & a bag of M&Ms.

If WCPO-TV ABC 9 keeps having problems with WOF,then King World should move it and J! to either WKRC-TV CBS 12 or WLWT NBC 5. Preferably WLWT,because in the 1970's and 1980's Channel 5 had bunch of game show favorites like nighttime HS, MGPM, Bullseye and Gary Moore/Joe Garagiola version of TTTT.

Bobby, WLWT during the 70s and 80s when they had Game Shows was also the station that Jerry Springer was an anchor at.

Are you kidding me? You bumped up a 2 year post for that ?

Kids, I beg of you, step outside, please! It will do you some good.

Thank you for replying to a 21 month old thread with some pointless, trivial information, which has absolutely nothing to do with the topic at hand.
