FOX4 ran the game without changing the listings in the slot where they normally air Wheel of Fortune. Well, almost. They started it at 6:28 rather than 6:30. WTF? I happened to tune in at 6:29 just to see if I could figure out if and when they were planning on airing the episode and caught the game just as Johnny was introducing Manisha. So I hit record. That worked for 1 minute until the program I was supposedly watching--FOX4 News--ended. The recording stopped as the show labeled "Wheel of Fortune" (which was actually the continuation of the Jeopardy! game that had just begun) started up. So I had to hit record again and missed several seconds.

I assume the other penguin had similar difficulties but is working to cobble together what he has and upload it.

Update: Looks like he uploaded some protest video to YouTube but then provided a link to a video on Google Drive. Remember that Google Drive chooses the thumbnails for videos and sometimes it chooses a spoiler. So right-click on the link to download it or just don't look directly at your screen until you click Play. (Google Drive is still processing the vid so we don't know what the thumbnail will be yet.)

Nevermind, looks like the show aired in its entirety as scheduled here!

Same up here with J! & WOF 8-9 and KGO ran a crawl to announce it. I read elsewhere that ABC is not showing any of the Millionaire eps and will instead rerun some Shark Tanks.

Lindsey Graham was talking...I gave it about 2 minutes waiting for a crawl then shut it off... :lol:

More awesome is ABC updated the scheduling AND my DVR picked up the new J! time thanks to the name match. They ARE learning!!

Dang it! On first read I parsed this as "Lindsey Graham was TAKEN" and I thought, well now, things just got interesting! :lol:

WLS (7) in Chicago had a crawl that they would re-air Tuesday and Wednesday’s shows tomorrow (Friday) at 1pm and 1:30pm CT respectively. This after moving Tuesday’s to a sub-channel as well as airing it at 3:07am. Wednesday’s was not moved to the sub-channel but was shown at 3:07am. I’ll grudgingly give them credit.

What time they move it to in the overnight hours when something happens during the day is inconsistent so I now have TiVo programmed to record a four hour block starting at 1:05am. Kind of a pain doing that as that blocks TiVo rebooting when the software is updated.

Warning to viewers of WBZ, Boston: because of the State of the City address by Mayor Walsh on Tuesday January 12, J! has been moved to WSBK, channel 38. At least, that's what last night's crawl said - I think this has happened before, but I could be wrong.

Today's episode of Jeopardy! was preempted on KTRK Houston because ABC is currently showing impeachment coverage.

A parade of people on both sides giving basically the same speech over and over and changing nobody’s mind will probably cause a number of pre-emotions this afternoon.

CBS passed on it and stuck with LMaD, TPIR, and Y&R as far as I know and most importantly J! aired in MS. I got a laugh out of DD1 since I was watching on that station.

Thanks for Letting Me Know. Ugh. now i gotta find it elsewhere or hope they air it at 1:06 am central. Biden's Inauguration Next week could also result in Preemption.

Biden's COVID-19 relief proposal is taking up airtime (on CBS, at least) and killing Jeopardy! for the 7:30 airings in the Eastern time zone.
