J! Oops 5/23.
« on: May 23, 2024, 08:07:06 PM »
  I was watching Final Jeopardy! Tonight on WXIX, and the think music wasn't played. The first conrestant's response (and second, I presume) wasn't telecast.

Did anyone else catch it?

Oh crap, someone alert the media before Brian alerts Cincinnati's media.

Can anyone not from Cincinnati corroborate, or was this a station-specific (and therefore Henke-specific) thing?

Station-specific, as far as I know. Ran just fine on WBZ in Boston.

I can't even tell from this if you caught it.

Why would they send the episode out if there’s a chance there was an audio error?

Or am I just overthinking it as I tend to do.

I don't think you're the one overthinking in this scenario.

I agree.

I got my Henke shot with my annual flu shot, so I am immune.

I seriously doubt that's what happened here, but there are occasionally major post-production screw-ups on these shows that somehow don't get caught.  There was a TPIR earlier this season where the sound dropped out almost-but-not-quite-completely for about five seconds because they evidently started making an edit to the audio but never actually finished it.

If you want something more noticeable, there's also an episode where Rich never introduces Bob because they edited out his original introduction and forgot to insert the new one.

Reviewed my copy from another affiliate. It was fine. 

And yes, stuff absolutely does get sent out wrong from time to time. The affiliate I'm at had to take a refeed a while back because they forgot captioning in the majority of the first feed of Entertainment Tonight. At least one station group with centralized master control accidentally ran one segment twice a while back on every affiliate at that hub. Countless examples of a station group getting confused and running "tomorrow's" episode a day in advance. I still recall the example from Drew's TPiR relatively recently that Steve mentioned.  And things get segmented wrong all the time, especially as station groups continue to reduce or eliminate staffing and the remaining employees (who are often doing other jobs alongside master control and ingest, themselves once separate jobs) are paid less and less so the positions attract less and less skilled employees.

tl;dr: Stuff happens.

There was also this portion of High Rollers where they only had the SFX and music:

I had the opposite happen on the affiliate that runs Wheel in my area. They reran the *previous* day's episode in place of that day's episode, which was a big problem for me...

...because it was the day I was going to be on Wheel. I had to scramble to explain to a lot of family and friends what happened and get an online copy shared.
