Question

Users explain what syndication means and note that Seinfeld episodes are being syndicated on Australian television, with complaints about limited episode rotation.

Pardon my ignorance and my Australian-ness... but what the hell is syndication?

that is when a television series (usually old episodes) are sold to independent television to be broadcast locally. they usually broadcast the show 5-6 times a week.

Which is what Channel 10 is currently doing, MrHate, every weeknight.

Except they keep stuffing us around by broadcasting the same cycle of episodes over and over again without going into the later seasons.

Syndication is when a t.v. station buys the rights to a show's early episodes and airs them nightly on a local station. Incidentally, the show does NOT have to be off the air as is the case with our favorite SEINFELD. There are many shows which still air first-run episodes but whose earlier shows are in syndication on another network.

Does anyone know where on the web you can find out who is syndicating the show and if there is a list as to when what episodes are showing.

Thanks

I don't know of anything like that on the web, but the Fox TV network shows Seinfeld at 7:00 PM in most areas on the east coast.

Thanks for the info ESHAAS but I believe that there has to be a resource out there somewhere containing the syndication schedule.

Thanks
