Sorry if this has been raised before but I've been away for a couple of months.

Paramount is not showing The Understudy - they've missed it out on the last 2 runs. Now I *know* they have shown it once in the past (it's the only one in that series where I messed up my taping) but I recall it distinctly. And I've never watched a series on any other channel. But I received this in email from someone today:

Will anyone else back me up that Paramount have shown the Understudy before? Thanks,

Looks like we'll find out tomorrow (wednesday) whether they really show it or not.

I *have* seen The Understudy on Paramount UK before, I distinctly recall doing so because a quick glance at the synopsis on a web site reveals storylines that I have seen before, such as Frank translating the girls' talk for Elaine.

So there you go, I will back you up.

Thanks for the back-up. But we've no chance of seeing it tomorrow. Paramount publish their schedule way in advance (you can find it on their site) and it's not on there. The email I got was from a guy who mailed Paramount asking why; and got told they've never shown it, but are looking into why. They're definitely mistaken. It's just very weird.

Well they missed it out, a fact that was indeed established before, so what are we gonna do about it!

what

The guy from the Seinfeld mailing list said Paramount were just unaware they were missing an episode and are now investigating.
