Is this because they started the season in mid-October? Usually in the past, however early or late in the fall the season started (ll 2000 started the first full week in October), the season would always end in mid June. Does this mean that we can expect seasons starting in mid October now? Or are they going to do live shows year round?[/quote]
The season finale will be on Thursday, July 17. There are going to be 190 shows this season -- 15 more than the last nine seasons. I figure this is happening partly to compensate for the late start and partly because Drew Carey isn't 84. As far as I know, Season 37 will start on time in September.
Also, Season 29 really shouldn't be used for this type of argument. The new shows that aired the last two weeks of September that year, which are officially regarded as the end of Season 28, were produced as part of 29. I don't really understand why they decided to do it that way...but there ya go.
