Poker After Dark starts late night Jan. 1 @ 2:00 AM

[recipro]

It appears to start tomorrow night, and NBC is just confused on the way which we name dates after midnight.

Poker After Dark is Dark in Memphis.

Just found out our NBC affiliate is carrying Who Wants to be a Millionaire, Frasier, and King of Queens. Thats what I get for living in Hicksville. If you are coming out for the WPO, make sure you tape it back home, cause it isnt on here.

NBC wanted to promote the show as running late night Monday thru Friday with the "Director's Cut" airing late night Saturday after Saturday Night Live. The words to stress here are "late night." Olivert's post is well worth reviewing for recording purposes. The show will begin airing "late night" tonight at 2:00 AM.

I Checked TV Guide.com for 3 weeks in Little Rock, Nashville and Memphis. Memphis has no listings for the next 3 weeks. So it looks like channel 5 here is doing a "Captain Tom" to the entire city.

It wouldn't hurt contacting your NBC affiliate to complain.

Contact info for anyone who is willing to bitch at the Houston affiliate for me can click here. I already did.

Pre-emptions reported so far:

KPRC-TV 2 Houston, TX (#10 market in the US)
KXAN-TV 36 Austin, TX
WMC-TV 5 Memphis, TN
KARK-TV 4 Little Rock, AR
WSMV-TV 4 Nashville, TN
WGRZ-TV 2 Buffalo, NY

There are probably more NBC affiliates in other markets that will pre-empt.

CHECK YOUR LOCAL LISTINGS.

--

WXIA-TV 11 Atlanta (TV market #9) will have it at 2:35am ET rather than 2:05am ET.

NBC affiliates in Markets 1-8 (New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston, San Francisco, Dallas, and Washington DC) will clear the program.

According to TVGuide.com Little Rock and Nashville have it on their schedules for the at least the first 3 weeks (I didn't check farther)

I get a Detroit NBC channel as well as Buffalo (in my HD channels) and it's not listed there.
God damn it.

In the future don't use the name "Hicksville", as that is an actual town on Long Island near me and they do indeed get Poker After Dark.
