BBC2 messing with schedule again

I can't believe that BBC2 programme planners have once again messed around with Seinfeld in the schedule tonight (Thurs)! To cancel the Finale shows, and say they will show them on split nights in two weeks just shows what complete comtempt the BBC have for the Seinfeld series.

While Channel 4 can make huge success' from Friends, and Frasier, the BBC can only make a complete hash of a similarly excellent US comedy show.

Heres hoping the next big US comedy show is sold to Channel 4 in the UK, or it will disappear almost without a trace.

The thing I find ridiculous is that on one hand they bill Seinfeld as 'BBC2's Best Kept Secret', while on the other they constantly treat it as their greatest burden...

Thats a great line! And how true.

Just checked the Radio Times website and the Finale episodes are now planned back to back Sunday 21st from 11pm....doubtless that will change again before that date mind!

BTW, have I missed an episode with all the chopping and changing? Was catching up with the episodes recorded on my TiVO and seem to be missing the Clip Show part 2.......have Beeb 2 broadcast this one yet?#

Unfortunately you did miss the clip show part 2, they broadcast it directly after the first part.

So the TiVO works?

Any good??

Last I checked the thing didn't work with Cable Digital (for some reason).. Guess I'll go check the site again.

TiVo works well for me anyway, only drawback I have found so far is missing the end of some shows but this will be fixed with a new software release "coming soon". I believe you can now buy a special adaptor for use with Digital Cable now.

Well, I guess we are both half right.....it is actually only BBC2 Scotland that has the finale episodes on Sunday, the rest of the UK is on 23rd and 24th as scheduled. Sky Digital viewers can of course get all the BBC2 regions on there.

1 point each then Gareth? : )

OK.

They're on Tues 23rd, and Weds 24th October following Newsnight as usual. Then no more headaches for BBC2 schedulers as they get back to commissioning rubbish British comedy shows to be shown at peak time.
