Did someone change the late night schedule?
« on: November 04, 2009, 09:35:17 PM »
Both the online listings at GSN.com and my TiVo claim that Ludden Password is supposed to be on at 3:30 AM Eastern, but ever since the clocks got turned back, all I get are infomercials.

Did this happen to anybody else?  (Does GSN now have a western feed?)

No. They specifically killed said feed earlier this year. (I think. Or late last year. Either or..)

It seems that they're kicking over to Paid Programming right after the second winner's circle on $25k Pyramid. They don't even come back for the wrap-up fifth act.

Huh?

I don't know what's up with your GSN feed, but I definitely saw Fast Money last night.

It has to be a cable company issue.  Many cable companies (mine included) substitute their own infomericals in place of the ones GSN actually plays.  There must be a clock that's wrong at your cable op's headend.

Or, more likely, a wallet that's feeling a little light at the Comcast offices.

Yes, I'm surprised more of you don't remember we have this issue every year.

Greedy cable companies have automatic equipment that runs their infomercials instead of somebody else's infomercials.  They don't mean to cover up somebody else's actual shows, because they know they'll get in trouble for doing that, even at three in the morning.  Greedy cable companies using outdated equipment forget to readjust their machines wien we get a time change, so suddenly those commercials are covering up the late-night hour of game shows instead of GSN's infomercials.  That will continue until your local cable company realizes its mistake, usually by persistant calls on your end.

Mine shows the right time.  Surely this isn't a moderator privilege?

Mine's showing an hour fast, even though Windows says (correctly) that I'm on UTC -5.

My time on this computer was an hour fast and I had to modify my time in the board settings section.  Now I have the right time.

/not that I noticed it was off until I read this section.

Say, here's an idea: why don't I tape GSN from 11 PM to 4 AM Eastern and see what is going on?

The schedule is correct until Feud begins at 3 AM; just as they get to, "Introducing the-", an infomercial kicks in.  Looks like it's a local issue.
